What the reviewers said
Trusted Reviews UK
4/5Mar 11, 2025
An unexciting but capable iPhone that covers the essentials at a tempting price. Best for upgraders from older SE or iPhone 12/13 models, not enthusiasts.
Modern enough upgrade for older SE and iPhone 12/13 owners
Apple Intelligence support at the most affordable new iPhone price
Good OLED screen, brighter than the SE 3
Strong battery life
Capable single 48MP camera takes good photos
Missing MagSafe, Dynamic Island, Camera Control and ultrawide camera
Single rear camera limits versatility and video modes

Specs are taken from the reviews' spec boxes — where they differ, we show the value most of them give; price is the US launch price of the base model. Read the originals for the full picture.
