Safety and Handling
See “Safety, handling, and support” in the iPhone User Guide.
Exposure to Radio Frequency
On iPhone, go to Settings > General > Legal & Regulatory > RF Exposure. Or go to apple.com/legal/rfexposure.
Battery and Charging
Don’t attempt to replace the iPhone battery yourself—you may damage the battery, which could cause overheating, fire, and injury. The lithium-ion battery in your iPhone should be serviced or recycled by Apple or an authorized service provider and must be recycled or disposed of separately from household waste. Dispose of batteries according to your local environmental laws and guidelines. For information about Apple lithium-ion batteries and battery service and recycling, go to apple.com/batteries /service-and-recycling.

For information about charging, see “Important safety information” in the iPhone User Guide.
Lasers
The proximity sensor contains one or more lasers. These laser systems may be disabled for safety reasons if the device is damaged or malfunctions. If you receive a notification on your iPhone that the laser system is disabled, you should always have it repaired by Apple or an authorized service provider. Improper repair, modification, or use of non-genuine Apple components in the laser systems may prevent the safety mechanisms from functioning properly and could cause hazardous exposure and injury to the eyes or skin.
Hearing Aid Compatibility (HAC)
iPhone is hearing aid compatible as determined by ANSI C63.19-2011. This standard has two ratings: M (for reduced radio-frequency interference to enable acoustic coupling) and T (for inductive coupling with hearing aids operating in telecoil mode) on a scale from 1-4, where 4 is most compatible. This iPhone is rated M3/T4.

Note: the 2019 ANSI C63.19 standard does not use this rating system nor do any test standards exist for any wireless technologies that transmit above 6 GHz. Therefore, 5G NR mmWave frequency bands cannot be tested.

Compulsory FCC statement: This phone has been tested and certified for use with hearing aids for some of the wireless technologies that it uses. However, there may be some newer wireless technologies used in this phone that have not been tested yet for use with hearing aids. It is important to try the different features of this phone thoroughly and in different locations, using your hearing aid or cochlear implant, to determine if you hear any interfering noise. Consult your service provider or the manufacturer of this phone for information on hearing aid compatibility. If you have questions about return or exchange policies, consult your service provider or phone retailer.

Avoid Hearing Damage
To prevent possible hearing damage, do not listen to high volume levels for long periods. More information about sound and hearing is available online at apple.com/sound and in “Important safety information” in the iPhone User Guide.

Medical Device Interference
iPhone contains magnets as well as components and/or radios that may interfere with medical devices. See “Important safety information” in the iPhone User Guide.

What does iPhone SE mean?

Is the iPhone SE waterproof?

The iPhone SE 3 (2022) has IP67 water and dust resistance under IEC standard 60529. This means you can safely submerge it in up to 1 meter of water for no more than 30 minutes.

How long will the iPhone SE 2020 be supported?

By the fall of 2022 when iOS 16 is released, that model will be seven years old. Cutting off support for it and the first-generation iPhone SE will still mean that iOS 16 supports devices up to six years old, which is about twice what you can expect from most Android phones.

Does the iPhone SE have face ID?

While the iPhone SE 3 2022 lacks the Face ID feature, its Touch ID is enough to keep your data safe. Furthermore, you can make purchases and unlock other apps with Touch ID.

How many years does an iPhone SE battery last?

about two years

An iPhone lithium-ion battery typically holds up to 500 charge cycles, or about two years; before you will see a degrading of the battery to 80% of its full capacity.

Is Apple SE wireless charging?

The phone also features a typical charging port but if you’re wondering whether the third-generation iPhone SE has wireless charging, you’re in luck. The new iPhone SE, which was originally modeled after the iPhone 8, still includes its signature Touch ID, which means there’s no upgrade to Face ID.

Why is my iPhone SE battery draining so quickly?

A lot of battery issues are caused by the way the phone is charged. One way you can ensure that you are doing this properly would be by using optimized charging. Apple introduced Optimized Battery Charging with their iOS 13. This can stop your iPhone SE battery from aging too fast.
