That model number corresponds to a third generation, midnight black, 64GB iPhone SE.

You likely purchased cases for the 1st Gen, which has a smaller screen size than the 2nd and 3rd Gen, 4" and 4.7" respectively. The model number for the 1st gen is either A1723, A1662, A1724.


Which might mean the ad was mis-read, or that the vendor, um, misrepresented the product as fitting SE 2nd or 3rd gen, or some other mix up.


Too much of the online advertising and commerce market is like that these days, unfortunately. Sketchy ads, sketchy products, and rubbish on offer, as online fraud is endemic.


If the seller is still around and if the product offer listed fitting 2nd or 3rd, request a replacement or a refund.
