i think its also ridiculous that you can’t show the nunbers row above the letters, its possible with android screen real estate, yet apple cant even put it on the regular ipads with 10.9" screen… you need an ipad pro for that (which has 11" screen)
easily, from a hardware standpoint, unless apple degrades it from the software side
iphone SE (gen 3) is an almost 10 y/o phone with minor improvements to the iphone 6. yes the CPU is way better but you can almost only use it for the same things as an iphone 6. single lens camera is difficult to compare to an android in the same price range, screen is ridiculously bad in todays standards and also uncomparable
the SE is only good if you need a cheap entry to get in the apple ecosystem, but there are alternatives for blue messaging and facetime
any cpu, the only thing is that it should fit in the mobo but even todays motherboards still support a 660ti. ssd is likely much better than a hdd.
