I traded in my iPhone 7 and upgraded to a new SE2.
The 7 served me well but it was 3.5 years old and it was getting difficult to recharge.
There was something inside the charging port that would not hold the charging wire properly.
I would have to twist the cable to make sure it fit properly. Sometimes the wire would move after it was plugged in to charge. I would return and there would be less power than when I started.
So.........I bought a new SE2 (Product Red). It was priced at $399 and TMobile was promoting it for $199. So I snatched it up before they ended the promotion.
It is the same size as the 7 but the internals are different. It has an A13 processor vs the A10, Bluetooth 5.0 vs an older version, AX wireless vs. the old BGN, a new battery that won't die early on me and wireless charging.
I don't need to plug it in anymore. No more wires, no more fail to charge events.
5G would have been nice, but it was not necessary. And I needed to replace my 7 before the port deteriorated any further and would not allow me to re-charge at all. I could not wait until Christmas to get a new phone.
I bought a wireless charging pad. It works fine but when it is mounted to re-charge, the charging pad remains lit. I tried going thru all the functions, but I can't find anything that allows me to turn off the light. Can I do this or does it always remain lit, while charging?
How do you change the details of your profile from Silver iPhone 7 to Red SE2?
I was going to ask this in the SE2 forum, but I did not see one.
Thanks
