Evening all
Just in case you missed it, Apple today held a special event keynote in which it gave more info on iOS 9.3 (available now!) as well as unveiling a couple of pieces of hardware.
O2 are pleased to confirm the iPhone SE and new iPad Pro 9.7" are both coming soon to O2. If you're interested, register your details here to be the first to hear about tariffs, info & availability > o2.uk/Updates
Were you watching the event? If so, what did you think of it? Excited about the new iPhone SE or will you be giving it a miss? And finally... Small phones or big phones - what's your choice?

This is something that was reportedly stated at Apples last earnings call. This is a conference call podcast that Apple releases, the last one would have been at the end of January. I'll post a youtube link to it below this post if you really want to check for youself (assuming moderators will allow links posted to this site)...anyways the info is now two months out of date...but the point i was making is that there is clearly still a market for this otherwise Apple would not have done it, Apple has access to all the data....i was just making the point that Viridis point that all the users who have still not moved to 6/6S are all just teenagers using hand me downs does not hold water.....Apple tracks Apple userID's...they also have users ages on these userID's aswell.
Some of the reactions online are frustrating because a lot of people don't seem to realise that the iphone 7 is still coming out in 6 months. The SE is an adition to the iphone line up, not a replacement for the flagship september release....if you watch the Apple presentation they make it clear from the begining that this is a very targeted release to satisfy two groups of users, they even mention these two groups as people who have been asking for 4 inch phones and new iOS users who want to get onto the platform at a cheaper entry price. It really is not hard to understand.

Folks,
I think its individual choice. I have still an Iphone 4s, I prefer a smaller phone which is easier to shove in a trouser pocket when your on the go.
I will be getting the SE, hadn't much interest in the bigger screen phones at all.
As I say its personal choice!

Couldn't agree more @Samjobre. Each person has their specific needs from a device :). I really liked the size of the 5 too; A big enough screen for watching stuff, but also very manageable to hold for smaller hands (like my partner's haha)

Also 4K video just means that the horizontal resolution when viewing landscape is 4000 pixels...your phone is 3180...so you are not viewing 4k on your screen either...
Correction to my post, my phone is 3840x2160, the 4k standard for 16:9 which is also the resolution of 4k video from mobile cameras.
So yes, according to Apple, I am viewing 4k.

That's a nice way of looking at it
Here's an interesting article that echoes those sentiments
