Be aware that this A1723 iPhone SE model supports LTE bands 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 7, 8, 12, 17, 18, 19, 20, 25, 26, and 28, along with TD-LTE bands 38, 39, 40, and 41, but it is not compatible with LTE bands 13 or 29. It was designed for Sprint in the US and numerous carriers across Canada, Europe, Asia, and Australia.
Promoted as a "reinvented" 4-inch device, the iPhone SE (Special Edition) models are almost identical to the iPhone 5s in appearance, except for their matte-chamfered edges. Internally, however, they share more components with the higher-end iPhone 6s.
All iPhone SE models feature a 4-inch widescreen multi-touch IPS LED-backlit 1136x640 "retina display" (326 ppi) without 3D Touch. They have dual cameras: a rear 12-megapixel, 4K "iSight" camera with 1.22-micron pixels, an f/2.2 aperture, and a dual-LED "True Tone" flash, plus a more basic 1.2-megapixel, 720p front "FaceTime" camera.
The iPhone SE was available in four metallic colors: "Silver," "Space Gray," "Gold," and "Rose Gold." Every color option includes a first-generation "Touch ID" fingerprint sensor in the home button.
All iPhone SE models are driven by a 1.8 GHz 64-bit "Apple A9" processor, with 2 GB of LPDDR4 RAM and storage options of 16, 32, 64, or 128 GB (storage configurations changed over time). They support 4G/LTE, 802.11ac Wi-Fi, Bluetooth 4.2, and NFC for Apple Pay. The device retains a bottom-mounted headphone jack and uses a "Lightning" port.
Apple's battery life estimates are up to 50 hours of audio, 14 hours of 3G talk time, 12-13 hours of internet use, 13 hours of video playback, and 10 days of standby.
In the US, this model was initially sold for US$399 (16 GB) and US$499 (64 GB) on Sprint. On March 21, 2017, storage was upgraded to 32 GB and 128 GB at the same prices. On September 12, 2017, Apple reduced the prices to US$349 and US$449, respectively. This iPhone SE was also sold by many other carriers worldwide and was fully discontinued on September 12, 2018.
