> but it's also noticeably bigger.

I dunno, the old SE wasn’t a mini by any means - this is .3 inches taller and .2 inches wider, so yes bigger but not like a different size class altogether

The SE had a pretty huge bezel though. That's an annoying feature of it, but at the same time it means that the screen was actually much smaller than the 16e's screen, and therefore (depending on how you hold it) easier to use one handed, which is what most people who want a small phone are looking for.

This is a lot bigger. IIRC the mini is smaller than the old SE, and this is bigger than the mini. It's not a "plus" sized iPhone, but that would be skipping up two size classes. It has gone from small to regular.

Now compare it to 1st Gen SE.
