I have an xr and definitely recommend it, great screen size, excellent battery life and decent camera (if it’s something you use). The 8 has a smaller screen so would depend on what you’re looking for

Iphone SE 2020?

I have a XR. It is a really good phone as H1978 said. Only bad thing is that it is a lot heavier that iPhone 6 which is fine once you get used to it but something to bear in mind. Battery however lasts a long time

I also have an XR. It doesn't have a home button so that takes some getting used to.

OldSpeclkledHen · 26/06/2020 23:49

Yeah.. no home screen button is kinda a freaky thought 😳😳

Also, sorry stupid question 🙈🙈 does the XR have a plug for earphones?

I’ve just gone from an 8 to an XR and it’s much better for battery life

Don't know about a plug for earphones but I can really recommend wireless ones. I just have some cheap ones but they're brilliant because I always used to get tangled in the cords.

Mine you can plug in headphone but you can’t charge at the same time
