Well said, Kitty, everybody's needs and expectations are different. My mother, for example, chose the iPhone 6S Plus because for her the larger screen is better, she is fully sighted but at 76 her vision also is not what it once was so the larger screen helps. For somebody like you who wants a fully accessible phone which gives you the option to use some apps but you are not using it for everything and the more advanced stuff you can do something like the iPhone SE is ideal. Nonetheless my advice to Craig stands, at this point with the major Apple announcement a week away it absolutely can't hurt to wait even if it's just to see whether the SE drops in price.

I think that the bottom line comes down to what you want to use your phone for. I really don't care about all the 3 d touch and other bells and whistles. I just want my phone to make phone calls (imagine that), do text messaging, and travel stuff like uber lyft, and nearby explorer. I want it to be small, like the SE, so I can easily carry it. But, if you want your iphone to be your computer and your sole device, then maybe you really need the latest and greatest. -----Original Message----- From: Carolyn Arnold Sent: Wednesday, September 05, 2018 10:31 AM To: viphone@googlegroups.com Subject: RE: Seeking Advice on Upgrading from iPhone 5 to iPhone SE I can tell you that I really, I mean really like my SE.

I am considering replacing my iPhone with an iPhone SE since my carrier is offering the latter for $100. I don't want a phone with lots of bells and whistles, but I would like one that runs iOS 11X, which the iPhone does not allow. Are there compelling reasons why I should not upgrade to the SE?
