The battery life is better than I expected (knock on wood) based on all the reviews stating the battery life was an issue.
Lasts longer into the day than my 7 was even with a brand new battery in it. 
This also supports fast charging (corded) and wireless charging. 
I imagine there will be magsafe battery cases/packs hitting the market soon that can supplement for when you know you'll need that extra battery life.

This is the probably Best phone available at this price point but I WANT A SMALLER PHONE!
Really miss the 5S/SE sized phone and I know I'm not alone. 
A full screen device with roughly the same dimensions of the 5S/SE would be perfect. 
 

"their cases aren't truly that much bigger than that of the iPhone SE."

Seriously? 
This is an absurd comment. 
The new phones are significantly larger in hand than the 5SE.
Steve Jobs would be going ballistic right now if he saw the new lineup. Not that the tech isn't impressive but the double camera bumps for 3 lenses is hideous and the fact that none of the phones can be easily used one handed (like a phone is supposed to be used) is something he always touted.
Apple is losing market share to other companies and I would bet my lefty that if they introduced an 11SE alongside the 11 for $100 less, that was full screen with overall dimensions similar to the 5SE, It would be their #1 selling phone. Full Screen, single camera, retina display, absurd battery (phone can be same thickness as 5S and no sane person would complain), more rugged (market is as "sport" or for tradesmen/workers who are moving around all day).

Just like last year, I was holding out hope for this event but am having the battery replaced in my 7 today.  I have zero intentions of buying a new phone before I absolutely have to, unless they come out with a phone-sized phone again. My kid plays with my old 5S and every time I pick it up I think of how awesome that thing would be with an edge to edge screen.
