Apple has one since they move manufacturering from China to India. Let say they have a lot of catching up to do, and the labors are of different culture and government style so it will be never be an Apple to Apple comparison (no pun). Perhaps you need to understand India productions control as a whole, as a country compares to other Asiatic countries: Taiwan , Vietnam, China, Cambodia , etc.

If you are not storing videos and lots.of photos, why don’t use it. So it all depends on your case what and how you use it. I don’t agree with the “just chuck it” ideology, when it’s still fine to make calls and surf the web and watch YouTube, etc. I use 2020 SE with 64GB, I still have 32GB free space. If I need space I have so many free choices, one drive, google drive, Amazon Prime photos offer unlimited photos storage…

At par, RTX 4060 is $300 avg for desktop version alone. Ryzen 9 being top of the line… decent price and decent for gaming with its dedicated gpu , not the latest but good enough. Used mkt might have better offer

I just switched to SE 2020 and loving it because it fits in my palm perfectly. I have been using “oversized” 6” + Android phones and missed how nice the SE fit in my hand. If I switch I’d go for iPhone 14, but I won’t because it’s still overpriced.
