Is your device ready for replacement and are you looking for a budget-friendly iPhone? iPhoned lexplains the differences between the iPhone 11 and iPhone SE 2022.
iPhone 11 vs iPhone SE 2022
The iPhone 11 and iPhone SE 2022 are both currently considerably cheaper to purchase, but there are some differences between the devices. These small differences can have a big impact on your choice. It is therefore not always wise to immediately go for the cheapest option without further consideration. There are personal preferences and other factors that can influence your choice. Below we have listed the most important differences between the two models for you.
The biggest differences
Small and compact
The iPhone 11 features a 6.1-inch LCD display. The bezel-less screen is further interrupted by the notch at the top, and the back of the housing is made of glass. The iPhone SE 2022 has a 4.7-inch LCD display and no notch at the top of the screen, which makes this budget-friendly topper a lot smaller than the iPhone 11.
Powerful chip
The iPhone SE 2022 is equipped with the new A15 Bionic chip, the same chip that can also be found in the iPhone 13. Thanks to this A15 Bionic chip, you can handle heavy tasks with ease with the iPhone SE 2022. You can also take surprisingly beautiful photos, partly due to the improved image signal processor.
The iPhone 11 is powered by the A13 Bionic chip, Apple’s industry-leading processor as of 2020. This powerful chip is also found in the iPhone 11 Pro and iPhone 11 Pro Max, both of which cost hundreds of dollars more. According to Apple, the A13 chip is about 20 percent more powerful than the A12 chip in the iPhone XR.
Can be used almost all day long
The iPhone 11 lasts about 17 hours on a full charge, so it can easily last a whole day on a single charge. In addition, you can quickly charge the device with a maximum power of 18 watts, so that in most cases the battery is half charged within half an hour.
The iPhone SE 2022’s battery lasts 15 hours, which is 2 hours longer than the SE 2020, despite having the same battery. This means you can use the device for almost an entire day without charging. If you put both devices side by side, you can see that the iPhone 11’s battery lasts about 2 hours longer than that of the iPhone SE 2022.
The best cameras
The iPhone 11’s cameras have a resolution of 12 megapixels, including the front camera. On the back, the iPhone 11 has two cameras: a wide-angle lens and an ultra-wide lens. The ultra-wide lens is ideal for taking landscape photos or for photographing large groups of friends or family.
Like the iPhone SE 2020, the new iPhone SE again has a single camera on the back. This 12-megapixel camera remains unchanged. The selfie camera also has the same specifications as before with 7 megapixels. The A15 chip analyzes photos at pixel level and combines multiple images to create a single optimal photo. This makes the final photos look better than on previous models.
Small device for a small price
When purchasing the iPhone 11, you can choose from three storage capacities: 64 GB, 128 GB or 256 GB. The device has 4 GB of RAM as standard. The iPhone 11 was previously available in multiple colours, but is currently only available in black or white. The best price for this device is currently at Mobiel.nl, where you pay 388 euros for the device alone. If you prefer to purchase it with a subscription, you can receive up to 172 euros device discount.
When purchasing the iPhone SE 2022, you can choose from three colors: red, black and white. In addition, there are three storage capacities available: 64 GB, 128 GB and 256 GB. The original price of the device started at 529 euros for the variant with 64 GB of storage space. However, you can now get the device a lot cheaper at Bol, because you pay 366 euros for the loose device.
Which cheap iPhone suits me?
But what is the best choice? That remains a personal consideration. The iPhone SE 2022 may currently be cheaper than the iPhone 11, but that means you have to make some compromises, such as a 12-megapixel camera and shorter battery life. On the other hand, the iPhone 11 offers a wide-angle lens, ultra-wide angle lenses, and a battery life of 17 hours.
The price difference between the iPhone 11 and the iPhone SE is around 65 euros. This makes the iPhone 11 a better choice if you are willing to spend that extra amount. You will then get extra options and the ability to take much sharper photos. If you would rather spend less on a new iPhone, the iPhone SE 2022 is still an excellent option.
