Expert Opinion on iPhone SE
Everyone is entitled to his/her opinion & that’s where IT expertise comes in to help us understand better about the newly launched device.
The founder of Analytics Research Consulting (Technology), Faisal Kawoosa has gone through the device features, pricing, & additional functionalities and he says, “The segment Apple caters will supposedly have more capacity to bear the stress that is likely to happen due to macro-economic challenges. But, still there will be some segment which will look for cheaper alternatives curtailing their budgets.”
In a way, Faisal questioned the pricing factor of iPhone SE saying that the pricing loses out to competition and is too expensive.
Wrapping Up
Labeled as the most budget friendly mobile device from Apple, iPhone SE is finally yours to grab only at $399 (US). But, is that the budget friendly figure you had in mind? I assume not. Because $399 for an iPhone is definitely not budget friendly! However, considering the features it comes up with, many users would be quite okay with the price.
