iPhone SE 2020 on every network
The cheapest 24-month deal on each network, sorted by the true total — the headline total plus the April rises the network has announced.

Rises use each network’s announced amount in pounds (Tesco Mobile about 6%). Sky Mobile’s rise isn’t fixed in the contract, so it isn’t included.

Our take on the iPhone SE 2020
The cheapest way to get the iPhone SE 2020 on contract today is on iD Mobile: £19 upfront and £9.99 a month with 100GB of data, £301.96 over 24 months.
iD Mobile adds £1.80 a month every April, so a contract started now costs about £43.20 more than the headline figure: £301.96 in all. Networks without an annual rise are worth a look if the gap is small.
Buying the iPhone SE 2020 SIM-free costs from £148. Pair it with a SMARTY 30-day SIM at £6 a month and two years cost £292, £9.96 less than the cheapest contract. If you can pay upfront, that is the cheaper route — and you can change SIM any month.
The iPhone SE 2020 has a 4.7-inch screen, a 1,821 mAh battery, a weight of 148 g. It is on sale with 64GB of storage in 1 colour. It was released in April 2020.
Pick it if…
- You want it for £9.99 a month on iD Mobile

- You want to pay little upfront — from £0 on iD Mobile
Skip it if…
- Your current phone still works — SIM only from £6 a month is far cheaper
- You want the latest model — the iPhone SE 2020 launched in 2020
