Comparison review
The Apple iPhone 7 Plus has a global score of 83.8, which is better than iPhone SE's 75.7 score. Although the Apple iPhone 7 Plus and the iPhone SE were only released 6 months apart, Apple iPhone 7 Plus's body is just a bit thinner but incredibly heavier than the iPhone SE. Apple iPhone 7 Plus counts with a bit better screen than iPhone SE, because it has a really bigger display, a much higher 1080 x 1920 resolution, a little higher pixels count in each inch of screen and a little bit more brightness.
The Apple iPhone 7 Plus features a bit more powerful CPU than iPhone SE, because it has a greater amount of RAM memory and a higher number of cores. The iPhone 7 Plus has a bit better camera than iPhone SE, and although they both have a same size back-facing camera sensor, the same 30 fps video frame rate, a 12 mega pixels resolution camera and the same video quality, the iPhone 7 Plus also has a larger aperture to capture better low light captures and video.
The Apple iPhone 7 Plus has a much bigger storage to install applications and games or saving photos and videos than iPhone SE, because it has 128 GB more internal storage capacity. The iPhone 7 Plus has a very superior battery duration than Apple iPhone SE, because it has a 79% greater battery capacity.
Although iPhone 7 Plus is a better device, it costs a lot more money than iPhone SE, and it doesn't have such a good quality/price relation as the iPhone SE. So if you need that extra features, you can buy the iPhone 7 Plus, but if you don't you can save a couple dollars and buy the iPhone SE, resigning some specifications.
