The discount cones at the cost of being locked in to the SE and your data cap for the next two years, which may not at all be a bad thing to you, but may be for someone else.

I failed to note that I wanted to buy an iPhone SE this year, which is why I looked for bundles.

The last time I bought a phone (2016) there was no bundle that was cheaper than buying the phone and a sim-only plan.

This time around, the inverse is true.

The only thing I’m locked into is my plan for 2 years. I can do whatever I like with the handset, and intend to offload it in a year assuming Face ID is seamlessly usable in public again by then.
