    Wow i think cnet Now only just the iphone for test camera comparison instead with android phones, i wish really want see or watch galaxy S22 ultra vs iphone 13 pro max camera comparison with you lexy, but since galaxy S21 you’re never making camera comparison on android phone between galaxy S21 ultra vs iphone 12 pro, and now this year as same too, you now just making camera comparison between iphone 13 pro vs iphone se 3rd generation, so suck🤢🤮

      My colleague Andrew already did the iPhone 13 Pro vs S22 ultra camera comparison!

      @Lexy Savvides yeah i know for that, but i think i prefer with you

    It’s actually the A15 Bionic no matter what the iphone body is. Iphone is iphone.

    • Christopher Sweeney

      March 29, 2022 at 4:48 pm

      What? The iPhone SE 2020 has the A13 Bionic chipset, not A15.

    The macro on the 13 Pro is sweet!

    Fact is, 90% of people… the SE is all they need. Many of these just run out and buy the expensive thing and then turn around and try to justify their $1000+ purchase. If they spent that much, they CAN’T be wrong, right? 🙄

    IPhone se. Made for people that don’t know you can get a used iPhone pro instead of a “new” one

    • leverson

      March 29, 2022 at 3:27 pm

      @Tarkus yeah people blindy buy the pros for ussally no reason

    • leverson

      March 29, 2022 at 3:28 pm

      @Ondra Wilson for a simple phone imo 430 is alot really it’s just the battery

    • Ondra Wilson

      March 29, 2022 at 4:11 pm

      @leverson I mean $430 over 5-6 years isn’t bad at all, it’s about $71. It’ll get updates and still be able to handle them with it’s processor.

    • leverson

      March 29, 2022 at 11:14 pm

      @Ondra Wilson I mean its alot when theres other options

    • leverson

      March 29, 2022 at 11:32 pm

      @Ondra Wilson the a13 probably will get 5-6 years this will probably last more 8-9

    iPhone se is 🗑 camera chip irrelevant the rest of it is 🗑

    • Snowy Muffin

      March 29, 2022 at 2:39 pm

      YOU. ARE. NOT. THE. TARGET. MARKET. OF. APPLE! Go buy the iPhone 13 Pro Max!

    • leverson

      March 29, 2022 at 3:26 pm

      @Snowy Muffin no even budget it’s just not a good deal I mean I love the home button iPhones but it’s not a good deal if you say it’s for people don’t use there phone that much there not going to spend 430 dollars for a phone

    • DeymSun

      March 29, 2022 at 10:55 pm

      @leverson exactly over 400usd isnt budget at all

    iPhone still ahead of the game when it comes to video recording.

    • Cesar Ortiz

      March 29, 2022 at 3:33 pm

      It can’t spilt screen it can’t download music from online and use it it can’t pip in YouTube without paying it can’t pip in maps it can’t go back it Can’t pin webpages to the home screen crazy hard it can Bombard you with Apple’s services subscription like iCloud music games tv that I don’t want to pay for They can’t just call Apple tech support from google do you have to copy and paste It can’t just call a lot of numbers I couldn’t even copy and paste up until about seven months ago It can’t pay everywhere

    • gcforreal

      March 29, 2022 at 4:10 pm

      @Cesar Ortiz all of that is true but what did that have to do with video recording ?

    • Cesar Ortiz

      March 29, 2022 at 5:01 pm

      @gcforreal it’s behind the game everywhere else you get one oooo so what complain to apple maybe things will get better and u can do 1 more of the those things

    • gcforreal

      March 29, 2022 at 5:09 pm

      @Cesar Ortiz again his comment was about video recording not the other things the phone can do and apple isn’t the type of company to take customer feedback they kinda do what they want

    • Cesar Ortiz

      March 29, 2022 at 7:02 pm

      @gcforreal His comment was about how it’s ahead of the game and video recording compared to everyone else my comment is about it being behind the game everywhere else

    why does the se looks better(main camera)

  11. Muhamad resha Reynaldi

    March 29, 2022 at 2:36 pm

    Nice review between 13 pro and se 2022. however, I curious about comparison among xr vs se 2020 vs se 2022. Which one better in the single camera 📷

  12. Syakir Zulqurnain

    March 29, 2022 at 2:44 pm

    i kinda like the sound quality of SE during the first minute of this video, bit clearer, but seems it captured more of the wind too.

    please a camera comparison between the SE and the Galaxy A53

  14. AndreRavone

    March 29, 2022 at 4:29 pm

    I’m convinced that CNET will do anything yo appease Apple. Compare that SE to a Pixel or a Samsung A series.

    • Lexy Savvides

      March 29, 2022 at 6:52 pm

      Once I get my hands on an A53 I plan to. I did the iPhone SE 2020 version vs the A51 at the time.

      I’d like to see comparison videos of Pixel 6 video recording vs the SE. I’d like to know if the Pixel has any lag before it starts recording compared to SE.

    • Marady Peou

      New SE vs old SE

    • jk279279

      Lexy – that was a really excellent and detailed comparison; good work!

  16. Joey Numbers

    March 29, 2022 at 6:14 pm

    Excellent comparison. This clarifies a lot between the two. SE looks to be an excellent budget phone.

    • DeymSun

      March 29, 2022 at 10:53 pm

      over 400 usd isnt budget

    • Joey Numbers

      March 29, 2022 at 11:04 pm

      @DeymSun it is to me.

  17. Troupe Goal

    March 29, 2022 at 7:20 pm

    such a pity the SE doesn’t support Proraw. It feels like something the camera and chip could support but is deliberately held back

    BlackSight and NeuralCam apps provide very decent night mode photos (comparable to native night mode on newer iPhones albeit slightly more noisy due to smaller sensor and aperture on the SE).

    I’ve got iPhone 13 pro max the cameras are really great 👍🏻

  23. Stephen Inoc

    March 30, 2022 at 3:17 am

    This might be the reason why they didnt use the XR or 11 hardware and body for SE 2022 bec it is just surprising amazing! They might not getting a sale for 13 line up if that happened!

    She asks viewers to comment which phone they like the most yet she never states her own answer nor does she make any real comparisons as the title states.

    shows how much latent power than SE actually has hidden under the dated exterior

  26. Church PhotoGuy

    March 30, 2022 at 10:54 am

    I am very impressed that the SE did as well as it did, however, for me I prefer the Pro for the Low Light capabilities.

    Cinematic mode is a gimmick and looks unfinished. Not worthy as a feature imo. I had the SE1 and it felt outdated so I upgraded to the iPhone 12 Mini which I’m content with until the 14 comes out! Great comparison btw. 👍

    Nice work! After Dieter Bohn left The Verge, you are currently my only favorite youtube producer left. So keep going! I would like to see a review of Garmin Fenix 7 vs Apple watch 7.
