Apple's iPhones are certainly high in demand, but some people cannot afford the latest models like the new iPhone 7. For those people, the older iterations of the iPhone are the next best thing because it is the cheaper option.

For instance, the iPhone SE is a great choice for people who prefer a much cheaper iPhone, according to Trusted Reviews. It comes with the same basic features as the iPhone 6S such as the A9 chipset, 12-megapixel camera and extended battery life. But there are a couple of differences between the two phones.

The iPhone SE comes with a 4-inch screen with a 640 x 1136 pixels resolution. Meanwhile, the iPhone 6S features a 4.7-inch display with 750 x 1134 pixels resolution. Nevertheless, both devices come with 326 ppi of pixel density.

The iPhone 6 S sports the Apple 3D Touch display which the iPhone SE does not have. This makes it a bit harder to switch app shortcuts. However, the iPhone SE feels more solid than the more expensive iPhone 6S, which tends to slip off the hand despite it being 30 grams heavier than the former. Both phones come in four colors: silver, space gray, gold, and rose gold.

While the two iPhones both come with a 12-megapixel rear camera and 4K video recording, the iPhone 6S features a 5-megapixels front camera while the iPhone SE only has a 1.2 megapixel secondary snapper. The iPhone 6S comes in 16 GB, 64 GB, and 128 GB storage options while the iPhone SE is only available in 16 GB, and 64 GB.
