However, the SE appeared on AnTuTu and posted an underwhelming score of under 500,000, which is quite off the performance of the 2019 iPhones.

On paper the iPhone SE (2020) appeared to be a combination between the iPhone 8 body, iPhone XR camera, and iPhone 11 Pro chipset. Sadly, the last bit comes with an important disclaimer as the SoC was clearly underclocked to maintain decent battery life. Even so the performance is better than any other phone costing $399/€479, particularly when it comes to graphics where the low screen resolution is bound to produce unmatched framerates.
