 So how do the "se" versions fit into each revision?

7
7+*
se (6s specs)

Is that how it's supposedly going to work? I can't remember how anything works what with the c, s, and se.

 They could name it the 7- and leave us with a 7-, 7, and 7+ to save us all the head ache.

 I wonder how many years it's going to be before we get wireless/QI charging. So tired of these bloody cables.

Since smartphones are becoming more and more iterative and no longer really breaking much new ground, it's time to just start naming them like cars and call it iPhone (2016), iPhone+ (2016), and iPhone SE (2016).
Apple used to gate software like Siri and iOS versions in newer generations, but Apple haven't done a great job of compelling new software features to tide people over. They are going to try to make Siri a killer feature - as well as their machine learning for photo processing, but I don't know how many people care.

Siri doesn't like my accent so I pretty much never use it. About nine times out of ten when I try, it takes me so long telling it "no, change the reminder message" that I'd have been quicker just typing it up in the first place. Anything Siri-related is basically a non-existent feature for me.
Siri will be able to pronounce names around the same time we terraform Mars.

Somewhere in the middle: iPhone XES?

 It looks like they're designed to do lines on.
