New iPhone, who dis 🤔

Apple just announced the release of a bargain bin iPhone you may actually want. Why? The compelling $399 price tag for the iPhone SE 2nd Gen is backed by a boatload of features normally reserved for a numbered launch.
This successor to the iPhone SE is actually long overdue, the first version launched back in 2016 and was later discontinued. The iPhone SE 2nd Gen signals a big move by Apple to offer more accessible products.
Let’s talk about what’s under the hood:
📱Same A13 Bionic Chip as the iPhone 11 and 11 Pro
🤳Portrait mode enabled
📸Standard 12-megapixel wide camera
🙅‍♀️No night mode on this camera
🔋Same battery life as the iPhone 8
đź‘–Pocket-sized
👆Touch ID
🔋Wireless charging
Pre-orders for the 2nd Gen start this Friday, April 17th. Here’s what the PH community is saying so far:
“Have been looking forward to this for a while. Essentially 80% of 11 pro quality at 40% of price. However, it's still a phablet.” - Robert Loustau
“For this price, go for a used iPhone X” - Ruben
“I like the small screen for privacy, battery life and video 4k” - Fajar
Not an iPhone fan but want a phone on a budget? Check out Light Phone II. More into the throwback phones? The "matrix phone" by Nokia might curb your interest 🍌
We want your thoughts on the iPhone SE 2nd Gen.

So we’re just… talking to software now?

ElevenLabs has been the go-to for voice for a while. Now they've turned that expertise into agents that actually get things done. You set one up, it talks like a real person, listens, responds, and helps handle the task — support calls, bookings, whatever the job is. Not a demo, not a "press 1 for sales" situation. It's ready to deploy. Feels like one of those shifts where the interface quietly changes. Less typing, less clicking, more just saying what needs to happen and letting it play out.
