Best new phones 2016:Apple iPhone SE

Apple confirmed its iPhone SE during a special event on 21 March. The phone went on sale on 31 March at £359 (16GB).

The rumours turned out to be true, and while the iPhone SE looks vey much like an iPhone 5s, but with matt chamfered edges and a shiny stainless steel Apple logo, on the inside it's very much iPhone 6s.

Headline features include the Apple A9 processor and M9 motion co-processor, plus a 12Mp iSight camera that can also capture 4K video. For a full run-down of what to expect, see iPhone SE UK release date, price, features, full specification and performance benchmarks.
