7. iPhone SE
Apple got back into the budget smartphone game this year with the launch of a new iPhone SE. The device is a successor to the original iPhone SE model, which launched in 2016--and has a similar display to the iPhone 8, with its 4.7-inch LCD screen. Along with bringing back a smaller display size and sizable top and bottom bezels, the second-gen iPhone SE revives Apple’s Touch ID fingerprint recognition and home button. One of the most notable updates to the new iPhone SE is the inclusion of Apple’s A13 Bionic processor--since that is the same chip used in all of Apple’s latest iPhones, including the higher-end iPhone 11 Pro and 11 Pro Max. Meanwhile, Apple is calling the iPhone SE’s rear camera the “best single-camera system ever in an iPhone” with 12 megapixels and an f/1.8 aperture on the wide-angle camera.
