For me, I prefer the 4" screen but I can handle a slightly bigger screen. Touch ID is a must and I'm glad they kept it. But the loss of the headphone jack will be bad, so I'll stick with my current SE as long as it's supported.

Seems to me you can assume that’s about to end.

Why? Apple tend to support their phones for many years after newer models are released

The original SE is about 4 years old now, which is close to retirement age in Smartphone years. It should be noted that the SE uses the same class hardware as the 6s, which is at the very bottom of Apple's currently supported list.

This article[0] from MacRumors in January seems to indicate all iPhones currently supported by iOS 13 will be supported by iOS 14.
