Along with the A15 chip upgrade and more, iPhone SE gets a battery
improvement over its predecessor and other iPhones. Let's look at how iPhone
SE 3 battery life stacks up against old and modern iPhones alike. As
expected, the
<https://9to5mac.com/2022/03/08/apple-unveils-iphone-se-3-with-a15-chip-same
-home-button-design/> iPhone SE 3 continues on as the most affordable option
in Apple's smartphone lineup. While it does gain 5G support, a new color
option, and A15 Bionic chip, there are some features it lacks:

tidbits: Lacks MagSafe and Ceramic Shield technologies, IP67, no 5G mmWave
However, even with the same dimensions and overall design as the iPhone SE 2
and likely the same 1,821 mAh battery capacity, Apple was able to improve
battery life. That's thanks to the tight integration between the A15 chip,
the rest of the iPhone hardware, and iOS. That includes what Apple says is
its latest battery chemistry and "internal design updates."
What to expect with iPhone SE 3 battery life
With iPhone SE 3, you get 2 hours more for video playback and 10 hours more
for audio than the SE 2 or iPhone 8.
That puts the iPhone SE 3 battery life on par with the
<https://amzn.to/3vQhRQK> iPhone 12 mini but is still

/> less than the iPhone 13 lineup.
Note: Battery estimates from Apple feature the "up to" qualifier on all of
its <https://www.apple.com/iphone-se/specs/> specs pages.

if you're coming from an iPhone SE 2, 8, or older, you'll probably be
impressed with the iPhone SE 3 battery life. Apple says the new iPhone SE
offers 4 more hours of video playback than the iPhone 6s.
And just like the iPhone SE 2 and other models, the SE 3 offers fast
charging to a <https://amzn.to/3Kp4XwU> 20W+ power adapter will give you a
50% charge in 30 minutes.
