Part 2. How to Factory Reset iPhone SE with Buttons

If you prefer a more manual approach, there are two ways to do iPhone SE factory reset using the device's buttons:

Way 1. Hard Reset iPhone SE

The hard reset, also known as a force restart, is a straightforward way to reset iPhone SE without a passcode. This method is quick, easy, and does not require any additional software or tools. While performing a hard reset, all data and settings on the iPhone SE will be completely erased. You will lose any personal information, apps, and other content stored on the device.

• Press and hold the Side button (also known as the power button) for about 10 seconds.
• After the device turns off, press and hold the Side button again until you see the Apple logo or a black screen.
• Once you see the Apple logo or a black screen, release the Side button. Your iPhone SE will then restart.

Way 2. iTunes

To reset iPhone without password, the recommended way by Apple is to restore iPhone with iTunes. All you need is a computer, the latest iTunes, and a cable that can connect your iPhone SE to the computer.

This method is based on the recovery mode of the iPhone, which allows for the erasure of all data and settings on the device, restoring it to its original factory state. And the process of initiating recovery mode, connecting to iTunes, and performing the reset can be time-consuming compared to other methods of device reset.

• Take your iPhone SE and connect it with your computer and open iTunes.

• If iTunes does not recognize your iPhone, enter your iPhone into recovery mode. To do that:

  • For iPhone SE 2/3 (and iPhone 8 or later): First press volume up button quickly and then the volume down. Then press and hold the power button until you see the recovery mode screen.
  • For iPhone SE 1 (and iPhone 6 or below): Press the home and power button simultaneously, until you see the removery mode icon on your iPhone SE.
  

• Now on your computer, you will see a message on iTunes saying that there is a problem. Click on Restore.

  
• The process takes some time to complete and wait for your iPhone SE to start up on itself.
