In addition, the SE has a headphone jack. If you require that to be present on the iPhone.
I do want to point out as well that even though from the 7 onwards, you can use headphones which use the the older style of connecting. Not sure what it is called but you will need to use the dongal which will enable you to use a 7 and onwards iPhone which do not feature a headphone jack. You should get the dongal in your purchase if 7 or above. I know it's less convenient, but at least apple provided a solution and believe me, if they didn't, I wouldn't of brought another iPhone. Certainly not because they are not amazing devices which we can hold in the palm of our hands but in my particular use case. I use a device which assists me with my hearing and the device where I can plug it in to listen to audio related stuff, simply required the headphone jack to be present. So if you are at all concerned about plugging in old headphones which use the jack, rest assured for now at least, apple has it covered. Depending on which newer iPhone you purchase. I hope this has been of some help. Funny how the removal of just one thing could effect one's own view with a product. I actually got quite anxious about the headphone jack removal. For now though, I'm not so worried.
