iPhone SE buying guide

The iPhone SE is the smallest and lowest-priced iPhone, with a 4.7-inch screen, a Home button with Touch ID and the classic iPhone design. The 3rd generation (2022) adds 5G and the faster A15 Bionic, the same chip as the iPhone 13. Apple stopped selling the SE in 2025, so refurbished is the way to get one.

Questions buyers ask

What is the difference between the 2nd and 3rd gen SE?
They look the same. The 3rd gen has the A15 Bionic instead of the A13, 5G, and longer battery life.
How do I tell which iPhone SE I have?
Go to Settings, then General, then About. The model name is listed there.
Does the iPhone SE have Face ID?
No. It uses Touch ID in the Home button.
Is the iPhone SE still supported?
Both the 2nd and 3rd gen run iOS 26.
Does the iPhone SE have 5G?
Only the 3rd gen. The 2nd gen uses 4G LTE.
Is it safe to buy a refurbished iPhone?
Yes, when the seller tests every phone and backs it with a warranty. Every refurbished phone we sell is fully working, unlocked, covered by a warranty of 90 days to 1 year, depending on grade, and returnable within 14 days. See our promise for how we check each one.
What battery health will I get?
At least 80% on every refurbished phone. For context, Apple designs the iPhone 15 and later to keep 80% of their original capacity after 1,000 charge cycles, and the iPhone 14 and earlier after 500. You can check it any time in Settings, then Battery, then Battery Health.
Refurbished or new: what is the difference?
A refurbished phone has had a previous owner. It is tested, cleaned and graded on how it looks, and it costs less than new. The grade only describes cosmetic wear. Every grade is fully working.
How much storage do I need?
128GB suits most people. Choose 256GB or more if you shoot a lot of video, play big games or keep your photos on the phone. 64GB works if you mostly use calls, messages and a few apps and keep photos in iCloud.
Will it work with my carrier?
Yes. Every phone is unlocked and works with any Canadian carrier. Insert your SIM card or set up an eSIM and keep your current plan.

Want a bigger screen and Face ID for not much more? Look at the iPhone 13 or iPhone 12.

Prices in this collection currently run from $169.99 to $459.99, depending on model, storage and condition.

Listing photos matched what showed up. Wanted a better camera without paying flagship prices. Camera does the job for everyday photos. Touch ID is fast and I love having a home button. Wish a charger was included. Good grade is honest, some light marks and nothing deeper than that!
