iPhone SE diary: It’s day 5, and my decision is already made

<div class="feat-image"></div>
<p class="p1">I use this <a href="http://9to5mac.com/2016/04/01/iphone-se-diary-day-1-first-impressions/" target="_blank">diary format[/url] to provide my take on iDevices for three reasons. First, because <a href="http://9to5mac.com/2015/04/24/apple-watch-diary-first-impressions/" target="_blank">initial impressions[/url] can be <a href="http://9to5mac.com/2015/07/31/apple-watch-diary-three-months/" target="_blank">misleading[/url]. Second, because tastes, of course, vary. And third, in recognition of the fact that you can’t really look at a single device in isolation – we also need to understand the role it plays in our own personal Apple ecosystem.</p>
<p class="p1">If I were looking to have just two devices – a laptop and a phone – then there would be only one sensible choice for me: the iPhone 6s Plus. As a pocket computer (which is of course what the iPhone is), the iPhone 6s Plus is an extremely capable device which offers an excellent compromise between a smaller iPhone and an iPad.</p>
<p class="p1">But, for me, that would be too great a compromise. I’d be giving up the ability to carry it in most trouser pockets (YTrousersMV) without gaining the usability benefits of an iPad-sized screen. It is, to me, a little too large for comfortable handling and a little too small for comfortable viewing and typing.</p>
<p class="p1">I am, though, in the fortunate position of not having to make that kind of compromise. I have an array of iDevices, so I’m able to assign each a much more specific role – something which has a significant impact on my perception of the relative pros &amp; cons of the iPhone 6s versus the iPhone SE …</p>
