Try a different browser, don't know which one you're using but I know straight talk sometimes has issues with Firefox.

I believe the answer is yes, but once unlocked, this device can be used on T-Mobile?

Yep, it works great on TMo. Obviously, speed will depend where you're at and what 5G infrastructure is nearby, but I've clocked some speed tests over 300 Mbps

sorry apple Fuked the design of the iPhone SE line up by making it iPhone 8 design and then used the iPhone SE design on their iPhone 12 and up lines.

just get a iPhone 12 mini instead if you want it smaller.
the oldest design that SJ made original CEO was the best design look wise this new CEO cook made it look worse while charging more.

also this price should be for iPhone 12 not iPhone SE. I'm not biting let them purge all the old iPhone designs first they are so inferior to the old iPhone SE design.
but why are these companies asking for more than free for a 3 year old phone?

I'm not even going to bother humoring them.

Well my phone got stolen while inside a UPS distribution center 😭"all merchandise missing and empty box was discarded" was the msg on UPS tracking. Kind of weirdly detailed as it wasn't updated for two days until I opened an investigation.

straight talk ended up just refunded me. no replacement sent

Happened to me also. I opened an investigation with no resolution from UPS. I ended up doing a chargeback with AMEX.

I purchased it one month ago but have not activated it yet. How long do I have to activate and use it after purchasing from Straight Talk?

Received mine yesterday in great condition. No scratches on the screen nor frame.

Serial number indicates the phone was purchased in October 2023 with warranty until October 2024, but the Battery stats say the battery has only had 1 cycle. Did I just luck out with the phone being unused, or has the battery been changed out?

Status from the Analytics log says the Original Capacity of the battery is 2085 mAh, current is 2055 mAh, and capacity relative to new is 98.56%.

Online says the iphone SE 2022 OEM battery is 2018 mAh so wondering if this has been changed out

It could be either. I just checked the battery stats on my iPhone SE 3 that was purchased brand new around that time and it shows the original max battery capacity of mine was 2097 mAh

Received mine and the battery maximum capacity shows 100%. Is that right?

Yeah, there are two possibilities …

1. The battery level is high enough that it's mAh rating is still above what is considered the "full" rated capacity for that model. For instance, I've been using my SE 3 daily for about 8 months and it still shows 100% battery health in Settings. When looking at more detailed battery specs, I see that my original battery capacity was 2097 mAh and ithe current max capacity is 2005 mAh. Since the rated capacity for the phone is 2018 mAh or something along those lines, the health stat probably doesn't actually start dropping until it gets under that baseline number by a full percent or so. (In other words, new phones ship with batteries a bit over 100% of their "rated" capacity … kind of like how you fill your gas tank and drive 20 miles but the needle still shows it at the completely full mark.)

2. They might have replaced the battery.

Given that this model is still so new, I'd tend to lean toward explanation #1.

From my feeling, most time those refurbished iPhone from tracfone variants are just returns of brand new phone. They usually come with some warranty left.

Can confirm the SE3 is nearly brand new. Process to activate via phone is relatively easy. Follow the instructions included within the shipping box and SIM was already installed. Typed unlock to their automated text msgs and instantly received a msg back on the 60 to unlock with date. not bad for $100ish unlocked phone for backup or one of your younger kids.
