Chip,

Another factor to consider is the processor is from 2015.  Apple stops
updating iOS after five years so the SE will no longer receive iOS
updates in 2020, a year shorter than the 7.  It is believed that Apple
will not refresh the SE in 2017.  It is not the size that is different
but the processor is important. I just bought a 7 after owning an
iPhone 5 and don’t find the slightly bigger size that much of a
bother.  I would say that I dropped by my local Apple store here in
Chicago wearing different kinds of shirts and pants to determine if
the standard 6, 6s, or 7 would fit.  It did without a problem.  Staff
at the store were cool with me handling the phone after I told them
what I wanted to learn.
