According to an earlier post it's not beneficial to use your old SIM card because it'll hinder the performance of the new SE model. Technically, the SE first generation and second generation take the same size SIM card. However, the new SIM cards are much faster, so Apple recommends getting a new SIM card with the new phone. I was told by an Apple staff person that I could set up the new phone with the old SE SIM, but should then get a new SIM card as the performance will be much better. Take care. Mike.

If you are planning to pay full price for a phone why not buy an unlocked phone directly from Apple. Then all you have to do when you get it is put your existing SIM in it and go through the setup screen and you are done.

If you are in the habit of buying Apple Care, it is $79.00 from Apple, or if you want Apple Care plus theft protection $149.00. I’ve always purchased direct from Apple until my last phone when I had to buy from the carrier, Xfinity, because that was before they offered the program where you could bring a phone to them and get it set up with their service. They didn’t offer Apple Care;; but their own warranty which was ridiculously expensive. I went with Apple this time and since Xfinity wasn’t listed as one of the carriers they work with, I bought the no SIM model. It is all down to personal preference.

I’m ready to preorder the new SE 2020. I can pay full price thanks to the stimulus check. I’ve gotten my last two phones from Verizon, but wonder if there is a perk to buying from Apple directly. The price appears the same. Verizon’s website says they’ll waive the activation fee if I buy online; maybe the same is true if I activate via Apple. Verizon will unlock the phone after 60 days. Apple has helped me in the past when I locked myself out of my phone, even though I didn’t have Apple Care. So, is there a reason to buy direct from Apple or is this just a preference thing?
