I got a 128gb SE for less than $250 shipped on ebay, graded at B condition but I couldn't find a scratch on it, not even by the ports (yes, plural :^) and the battery is at 95% health. Just as quick as an x in real world use, the screen repair is way cheaper, and I could stretch the battery life two days.

I love the size too, the last one handed iPhone and I forget it's in my pocket.

I love the SE too, I really hope they release another small phone within the next year.

I traded my 6S for an 8. Got the 8 for $399 after trade. That's pretty cheap for a great phone.

It's only expensive if you want to pay extra for a status symbols. I have a 5500mah Android phone with a great screen and hardware that costed me around $150

That's not at all what I am referring to. With Android you are basically carrying Google's (play services) remote monitoring device.

For $150 device (whichever company subsidized that device) you are the product.

For the sake of argument, let me point out that you don't have to install google play services on Android device. (Unlike Apples's world, here you actually have a control over your phone)
