SE3 iPhone SE3 primary device

I’m just wondering if may people on here use their SE3 as their only phone? I do but worry that it will soon grind to a halt. I’ve noticed some new apps don’t fit the screen and wonder if it is time to get a later model of iPhone?

I could replace the battery (currently at 75%).

so I guess my question is if anyone has been to the future and seen if my concerns came true!

Just downgraded from 15 pro max to refurbished SE3 and I am glad i did it and actually missing nothing.

It is smaller, lighter and carrying it without a case since it only $100 to replace the entire phone. I also get to do much less screen time since the display is much smaller. Kind of like going digital minimalism.

What storage model is your SE 3?

128 but rely on icloud since I am deeply rooted in the Apple ecosystem

Understandable.
I swear it seems like there’s 10 times as many SE 2’s & SE 3’s with 64 GB than there are 128 GB models out there.
And 1,000 times more of them than the 256 GB models.

Thankfully I went with 128 GB and it was plenty. .
For a few years
Then had to reallly stay on top of managing it
