SE looks like a winner. I'm happy with the pricing. I think I'll get one and give my kid my 5S.
It will be interesting to see how sales of the SE do compared to the 6S.

My wife may very well want the SE. She loves the size of her 5s.

I really hope some of the Android makers start pushing higher end, smaller size phones as a result of this...

Of crap, it's a SE. Can't wait to see the first from the hood, to put the fake plastic air louvers on it.

Right now I feel like these (and similar) are an after thought. I would love to see Motorola start putting out a 4.5-4.7 inch screen, high spec phone again.
I am going to need a replacement in the next 4-5 months and do not want the larger form factor.
Nexus 5x is looking nice, but not sure how long in the tooth it is..

MIL got an iPad pro, I was playing with it a little last night.
It's 1000% overkill for her, I have no idea why she got it versus just a new ipad, but she got it...
She uses it to browse FB, play some games, email people and shop online.
Total overkill.

OK, so tell me about MacBooks. I'm thinking about joining the dark side, but only if I can run Win 10 well in Boot Camp or Parallels. Well, that's my assumption. My work VPN works best via Internet Explorer, and for that I need Windows. I think to use it otherwise, I have to use Java, and I think I'd rather kill myself.
I don't have a big need for horsepower. I'm not planning on playing too many games. I need a good keyboard for writing, good battery life, and fairly lightweight/portable. I have a HP Probook 15.6 that is supposedly a perfect candidate for a Hackintosh build, but I was thinking of handing it down (solving another problem that recently came up). What I love about the ProBook is the keyboard, minus the fact that it isn't backlit (requirement). I'm not sure how I'll deal without a keypad, but the Surface Pro 4 doesn't have one either. The SP4 would be my choice on the Windows side right now. The pen isn't important to me.
So, sell me on going to the dark side. I'm currently looking at the different models.
