Hmm, but in order to double tap anywhere to open an app you have to first touch the app and when you touch the app you already have your finger in the right place to press and invoke the 3D touch menu.

Of course its all new and we need to get used to it. My biggest problem with it in terms of time saving is concerned is you have to put your finger on the exact location of the app you want to perform the 3D action on. Personnally I swipe alot to get to the desired app and then double tapping somewhere on the screen to open. So by the time I find the exact location of some apps, I already opened it with swiping and double tapping anywhere on the screen. No doubt more and better usage of 3D Touch will come.

I am not sure what you mean by “it’s not discoverable”, but I find it easy to check if 3D Touch options are available and have gotten quite comfortable using it in certain situations. For example, using it with the App Store app if I want to search for an app. Instead of double tapping on the app, then double tapping on the search tab at the bottom and then finding the search edit field at the top left and double tapping on it to put focus in it and bring up the keyboard, I just press down on the App Store icon on the home screen, do a quick swipe right (that puts me on the “Search” option in the menu, then I do a quick double tap and bingo, focus is already in the search box with the keyboard on the screen waiting for me to type my search term. Another example is the Phone app. If I want to call my wife, my office or my manager on his mobile, I just press down on the phone app, swipe a couple of times and double tap on one of the 3 names that are part of the context menu (they are the first 3 in your Favorites list). Another app with useful functions in the context menu is the Camera app. These are just a few examples, I’m sure in time Apple will figure out more ways to make this useful and as far as it being natural or not probably depends on you. Eventually everything becomes muscle memory and we have to keep in mind that 3D Touch for sighted people has many more applications which we as blind users may not be able to use.

It's not discoverable and there is no hint of where it can be used or where it works. it's not really natural, and most of the time: i end up just interacting with it as if 3D touch were not even present...It ends up being faster.

But there are still a lot of iPhone 5/5C and even 4S and 4 out there and for these customers this will be a very nice upgrade as a free phone on contract or for what I consider not an unreasonable price unlocked. I remember somebody recently advertised a used 5S on the list in the UK and I think he was asking 300 Pounds, probably not too realistic given the price of the iPhone SE. I also still have my 5S 64 Gb which I was planning to sell, probably should have done so before this came out.

The article was published today on a well respected Dutch Apple news site called: <http://iculture.nl/> iCulture.nl < <http://iculture.nl/> http://iculture.nl> . Unfortunately they don’t mention any sources from which they got the detailed information. They only refer to a person who made the list, or something. the link to this person is to Twitter. Another feature the SE misses is the barometric sensor (dont know the exact English translation), which measures differences in height and vertical movements like on stairs. Dont believe my word for it, time will tell right.

The SE has 1st generation touch id while the 6s has 2nd gen, and since I use the 6s’s touch id daily, the 2nd gen isn’t perfect bij a long shot. The SE’s front camera is much worse than 6s, a 1.2mp instead of a 5mp one. The main-camera is also 12mp, but the SE uses a somewhat older sensor. High-speed data transfer lacks some minor frequencies and last but not least it is probably safe to say the SE runs at a lower cpu clock speed than the 6s to maintain good battery usage, since the battery is quite a bit smaller.
