There are antenna lines at the back of the device and the fingerprint scanner is positioned on the button in front. As for the iPhone SE, it is a smaller device, but it has Apple's great design and rounded edges that give it a great look. Much like the HTC 10, there are plastic antenna lines at the back and the fingerprint scanner is positioned on the home button.
