Almost 10 years after launch, the original iPhone SE is now considered obsolete by Apple. 🪦💔 The designation means the aging smartphone is no longer eligible for repairs or battery replacements via Apple Stores or its Authorized Service Provider partners. The iPhone SE debuted in 2016, bringing iPhone 6s features, like Touch ID, to a phone the size of the iPhone 5s. It was the last phone from Apple with a 4-inch display after its flagship products jumped up to a 4.7-inch minimum in 2015. Earlier this year, Apple seemingly dropped the SE brand for the iPhone 16e, which "gracefully fulfills its role as the most affordable member of Apple's iPhone family without compromising the core experience," we found in our review. #iPhoneSE #AppleObsolete #VintageTech #AppleRepair #OldiPhone #TechNews 📸: Apple Like what you're reading?
