- Today we're checking out
the brand new iPhone SE.
(upbeat music)
It looks so much like the iPhone 8
that if I didn't know what
the iPhone 8 looked like,
I wouldn't even know the difference.
I happen to have an iPhone 8 here
so you can see how it
really does look so similar.
The new SE is a little bit more white,
whereas this has a little more
of an eggshell type color.
The iPhone name has been removed,
and the logo is now centered.
And my iPhone 8 is still running iOS 11.
(laughs)
So the front bezels on the new SE,
the entire screen is black,
so I kinda like this because
it looks very seamless,
so you can't tell that
there are edges around it,
it does look like a full screen
until you actually turn it on.
Whereas the eight has the white bezels
to match the white phone.
I'm not really sure which one I prefer.
But this looks better off.
But I also like the white.
I don't know.
The iPhone SE comes in
three different colors,
this is the white, it also comes in black,
and a product red.
The starting price is 399,
and that's actually a
really incredible price
considering how powerful
this little phone is.
This is actually running
the A13 Bionic chip
which is the same chip
which is in the iPhone 11.
That's gonna have an amazing impact
on the performance of this phone.
The original SE had a
starting price also of 399,
and that was in 2016,
so Apple is keeping that same price,
yet giving it that A13 Bionic chip
that is in their highest
end lineup right now.
This is 1.4 times faster
than the original SE,
and it also will give you a
four times graphics boost.
The display is a 4.7
inch HD retina display,
and what's great about this,
is this is the same size as the iPhone 8,
so all of the cases that you may
already have for the iPhone 8,
or their out there already,
will work with the new SE.
This also has touch ID,
and that's the thing that I never thought
that I would really want
back until I started
having to wear face masks
every time I go outside,
or, basically do anything.
'Cause guess what doesn't work
when your wearing a face mask?
Face ID.
It's also weird, I kinda
missed having a home button.
Like, just the haptic
feedback on this alone,
is just so satisfying,
like I've definitely have missed that.
One thing that I was very
excited about though,
is this does have wireless charging.
A lot of times when companies
are trying to cut costs
with their devices,
that's the first thing that goes.
So the fact that this does
have wireless charging
is pretty exciting.
(upbeat music)
So the camera is pretty impressive,
your still gonna be getting 4K 30, 4K 60,
from this rear camera.
This is a 12 megapixel camera,
the front is a 7 megapixel selfie camera,
this also features a
cinematic video stabilization,
so even if you are shooting at 1080,
that extra stabilization
will help you shoot way
better front-facing videos.
That's pretty stable actually.
You can do all of the
things that you normally
would be able to do on
the higher-end phones,
like slow-mo, time-lapses.
It even has the quick-take video
which I always forget about,
so if you hold this down and then swipe,
this'll automatically
start recording a video.
I don't know why I can never remember
that that's a thing, but it is.
I shoot a lot of these
videos in just mono audio,
so when I am shooting something in stereo
it's always crazy to hear the difference.
So I'm gonna shoot a quick video here.
All right we are testing out the video,
right now I'm shooting in 4K,
so you guys can see the stereo audio,
so maybe if I go over here,
I'm over here.
And if I go over here, I'm over here.
I wonder if the next iPhone will record
in 360 Reality Audio?
I know that's like a Sony property but,
These do have
Sony lenses in them.
So anything's possible.
The one thing that I would miss with this
is having that ultra-wide lens.
This does only have the wide-angle lens,
there's no telephoto.
It will shoot portrait mode though
on the front and back-facing camera.
The newer iPhone 11 Pro's
do shoot Pet Portrait Mode,
this will not, as it does
really only have this one lens.
This version of portrait mode
is mostly reliant on software,
but it's still pretty good.
And the fact that this phone can do that
is thanks to that A13 bionic chip
because it's doing so many
processes, so quickly,
that it's able to give you some
pretty incredible features.
So this comes in three
storage configurations,
there's a 64, a 128, and a 256.
But what's really impressive
is the 64 and the 128,
there's only a 50 dollar difference.
So if you are looking
to do a slight upgrade,
I would recommend just going with the 128.
Yes,
you really do never know when your gonna
fill up the storage on your phone.
But all that being said,
a lot of stuff can be stored in the cloud,
you can offload apps,
you can keep all of that stored virtually,
so if you do opt for the 64,
you will be perfectly fine.
Oh, I also have one of
the new silicone cases.
I've had Moment cases on my
other iPhone for so long,
that I forgot how great these cases are.
Before I put this case on now,
I wanna show you guys a
comparison of this new SE lineup,
next to every other white iPhone
that I could find, that
I have previously owned.
And unfortunately one of the phones
that I don't have, is an original SE.
Let's take a look.
(gasps slightly)
it's always so shocking how beautiful
this iPhone is without a case.
So here they are side-by-side,
I still love the frosted glass of the 11,
so pretty.
So you can see the screen difference
between the 11 Pro Max and the SE.
Let's put these cases back on.
I can't be trusted.
I'm gonna put that case on the iPhone 8,
just to show you, and to
prove to myself that it works.
Here's the 8, same phone, same size.
So now I'm gonna do a quick little photo
and video test like I always
do after my unboxingings.
We are outside in our
typical quarantine fashion,
slippers in the back yard.
Does it matter?
It doesn't.
But we're gonna test out
some video, some photos,
to show you guys what
this little guy can do.
We're gonna start with the
front-facing camera first.
Hi, it's Justine, in the backyard.
I haven't been outside in over a month,
so obviously,
feeling and looking
(laughs)
fantastic.
Matty isn't here today
he's with my sister,
so, you guys are not gonna to be getting
any quality Matty content today.
I'm purposely trying to move around a lot
to see how the cinematic
stabilization works.
Okay,
let's take a selfie.
So like I've mentioned you can take
portrait photos on the front and the back,
so let's just take a regular photo first.
(upbeat music)
Okay let's,
switch to portrait.
(phone clicks)
(upbeat music)
This is all the lighting
effects that you guys
are used to and have seen before.
You can also adjust the f-stop
which will also adjust how blurred,
or not blurred that background is.
So obviously one of the highlights
of the iPhone 11 Pro is
you can do slow-fees,
slow-mo on the front-facing camera,
this does not do that.
But I think you guys will be okay without
having slow-fees on your
front-facing camera.
But we can do 240 and 120
on the rear-facing camera
which I think is pretty good.
I can't run very fast because my slippers
aren't on properly.
(upbeat music)
Have you seen speed like that before?
It wouldn't be a slow-mo test
without hair flips.
(upbeat music)
Now if I give you photos
from the back-facing camera.
(upbeat music)
4K 30.
Let's test you out.
Man, my lawn needs mowed,
this grass is growing.
It's getting so long out here.
It's fake grass but Jenna
always tells me that,
and for some reason I'm always like,
"wait, is it really growing?"
It's not!
This is the back-facing camera,
we're shooting in 4K 30.
It's really cool though because
this will actually shoot up to 4K 60,
so you can still get 4K
and slow down the 60,
to get some nice cinematic slow-mo.
So let's try that out now.
(water pump spraying)
This is a really bad, this is a bad demo.
(upbeat music)
(cries out in surprise)
Good thing it's water resistant.
Why is this foaming?
What is happening?
I didn't like that.
Why does my hose look like a space ship?
I don't know.
I do plan on doing a
way more extensive test
with some moment lenses.
Make sure you guys
subscribe and hit the bell
so you'll be notified
when I post that video
but I'm really excited about that
because I really want to try
to push this thing to it's limits.
Thank you guys so much for watching,
I hope you guys enjoyed
this first little look
at the new iPhone SE,
I think this is an incredible phone,
at such an incredible price.
It's got all the photo
and video capabilities,
it's fast enough to play all of the games
that you would need to play.
Obviously it doesn't have
the three camera setup,
it won't do night mode.
But if you're looking for a fast phone
to create some content,
stay connected with
your friends and family,
and do whatever else it is that
you're gonna be doing on your phone.
This is the phone for you.
