Why Decide likes it
- For many Nigerian buyers, this is still a realistic iPhone tier if the unit is clean and the price is fair.
- The support runway is shorter now, but that does not automatically make it a bad buy for someone shopping within this budget.
What to watch
- Software support is tighter now, so the unit condition and price must do more of the work.
- If a cleaner iPhone 13 or 14 is close in price, that is the better place to put the extra money.
- Battery health, Face ID, True Tone, iCloud status, and repair history matter more here than colour or seller packaging.
- Grey-market risk is high enough that one bad unit can wipe out whatever you thought you saved.

Repair reality
Repair outlook is mixedThe iPhone SE (2020) should still be serviceable locally, but support quality is not a standout advantage.
Resale confidence
Resale confidence is weakThe iPhone SE (2020) is not the kind of phone buyers usually chase for strong resale later, so long-term value relies more on what you pay now.
