I'm holding onto mine because it still meets my needs, very well I would say. Why upgrade when I really don't need to? Second, I've grown to know Apple and am sure they will add improvements to the new model, probably fantastic improvements but but they will probably take something away as well, something that I am using now and don't want to be forced to change. I don't know what, maybe the phones jack or something. I am not buying a phone without the jack (no dumb dongles please). However, if all is good after the 12 is released and nothing is taken away I'll consider upgrading when my current SE no longer works.

I'm actually planning to use my phone less and less because I am trapped bad habits and that results in unnecessarily wasted time.

I love my original SE. upgraded to latest SE because i needed the LTE bands my carrier, T-Mobile, is broadcasting on more rural sites.

Anything larger than the iPhone SE (my current phone) is simply too large. So unless Apple changes course and starts providing smaller phones anytime soon (doubtful), my next one will unfortunately probably be an Android.

Unfortunately it’s slim pickings in the Android world for small phones too, unless you pick up something like the Palm with no software updates from launch and an atrocious battery.

Hanging on to my SE not only because it still feels nippy and works great and because the form factor is ideal (my first iPhone was a 5, then a 5S, then the SE) but also because it's the last bastion of the headphone jack.

There are really so many of us in this boat. I'm on the 2016 SE and loving it. For all these reasons. I've been waiting and waiting for something small enough to come, but TBH, this is working just fine for me at this time, why upgrade? The only thing that really is lacking for me is the camera. For that reason, will see what October has to offer vs. the new SE.

I have the 2nd gen SE version which is the same shell as the iphone 8. Works great, and meets all my needs.

i upgraded to SE 2020 too but only because my SE 16gb space is running out. The SE 2020 is an ok upgrade and since its cpu is pretty good, I expect this one can last with me for another 5 years.

I'm very happy to hear that! I'm on a classic SE 16 GB, my second, and the really tiny amount of space is really a bummer. I'm so glad the SE 2020 is worthy upgrading and holding on to.

If it is music, i found iTunes Match is the solution. Like $40/year.

it's mostly photos. for music, i already use spotify
