Not updating. Not a problem. Not supporting. That would be a problem.

I considered buying a 3rd gen SE about a year ago, but I got a Mini 13 instead.
It wasn't really that much more, especially when you look at how much more you get for a few more dead benjamins.

Released in March 2022, the third-generation iPhone SE features a 4.7-inch LCD display, Touch ID, 5G, a 12-megapixel rear camera, and the A15 Bionic chip.
Sounds good to me.

I wish they would bring a 15 mini to market.
Theres absolutely nothing wrong with my 12 mini (wouldn't mind the longer battery like the 13 mini, but meh) but love a 15 mini with USB C and whatever chip they are coming with.

My 5s was my all time favorite 'Phone.
Not a lot of real estate, but the carry size was great.
My 12 mini is ok, but not a 5s.
The 12's battery health is already down to 89%, where it took my 5s almost four years to get that low.
I can live with the mini size but if Apple brought out a 5s with even a tiny bit more real estate, I'd be a happy owner.

5s was perfect. SE works, but I'd still be happy with a 5s.

iPhone15 will be USBC, according to rumors.
The SE series always uses older parts and adds a recent CPU.
I would not expect an SE until 2025, when it will be one of the last lightning iPhones.
