Still rocking the iPhone SE. Fits in my hand, makes phone calls and loads fast. Don’t need to unlock it with my face.

Quite a killer feature indeed. I have small hands; my almost-8-year-old smartphone is 4.5" x 2.5". I'm not sure I've seen any other smartphones that small in several years.

What version of iOS are you running? I have an iPhone 6 which I absolutely loved until I made the mistake of upgrading to iOS11 recently.

FWIW, my SE was fine with iOS 11.

Same here, and they’ll pry it out of my cold, dead hands. I have a tablet and laptop for portable computing, I want my phone to be maximally portable, and a phone.
