If you don't care about the Operating System, here's the breakdown:

SE is better at:
- pure performance and speed (underclocked A12)
- gaming (so smooth)
- 5 years of updates
- video quality (no contest)
- durability (IP rated water resistant)
- resale value (again, no contest)
- ergonomics if you have smaller hands (or if you don't like pocket bulges)

4a is better at:
- battery life (by a HUGE margin)
- screen clarity and size (easier to type)
- still image quality (has Night Mode)
- built-in call screening (so good at blocking Spam)
- AI features if you use them (I don't)
- ability to side-load apps like YouTube Vanced (no ads)

I have a 3a and an SE, and I use the SE as an iPod Touch and the 3a as a daily driver. I'm OS-Agnostic.
Biggest sleeper phone ever. It's amazingly fast (same chip as the iPhone 11 Pro Max), looks like your Grandpa's iPhone 7, and is cheap as hell so less heartbreak if you lose it or drop it. Battery life is mediocre is the main downside, I actually prefer LCD screens to OLED at low brightness but YMMV.

There is no other phone that will last you 5 years at $339.
This is available on cricket right now for 49$ and 60$ service with a mobile number port. You can downgrade the service cost to 30$ pm immediately after activating the phone on cricket. Use it for 6 months and get it unlocked.
So total goes for :
49$ + 60$ + 30 x 4 more months of service totaling = 230$
One can also get $25 additional referral bonus.

I have this phone. Cheap price but the screen brightness is horrible. Can't use it outdoors.
Can anyone else who own's the 2020 SE comment on the screen brightness? This is the first complaint I've heard about it (not saying it's not true). Just wondering as this is on my list as a potential buy.

Thanks,

This is a great phone and have no issues with using it outdoors.. only limitation, if any, is it doesn't have great battery life.. if you're power user then it will require recharging by evening.

This was supposed to be my daughter's big Christmas gift, but I just found out Costco cancelled my order because they ran out of units. I purchased it 3 days ago and the payment hit my credit card, but they just pulled the plug on it. I didn't even get an email notification.

I called and they said they wouldn't do anything about it. Pretty disappointing, Costco.

Yes, this happened to me too with macbook. The website said processing for a few weeks and it wasn't until I called customer service before they cancelled the order and refunded what I paid. Very odd for Costco to do something like that.

Seems like they don't backorder stuff and once it is gone, it is gone. To the point they even pull the product page. Until they get it in stock and it all reappears.

I ordered a 128gb model on the 25th and it has shipped, so I don't know where the cutoff was.

Did you get a shipping notification and tracking number before it was canceled?

One thing of note. My phone was delivered today and haven't opened it yet. But noticed the box said it included EarPods and a power adapter which I don't think is included anymore. Unsure if Costco specific or old stock. I wanted some headphones so I am not mad.
