U.S. tech giant Apple is rumored to be returning with the successor to the second-generation iPhone SE on March 8, when it will also announce an updated iPad Air.
While Apple has yet to confirm the event, analyst John Donovan said the new iPhone SE will start at $300 (~Rs 22,720), according to GSM Arena. That’s $99 ($7,500) off the base price of the iPhone SE (2020).
However, another analyst, Daniel Ives, said that Apple will stick to the base price of $399 (roughly Rs 30,200) without ruling out a price cut.
Dubbed the iPhone SE+ 5G, the new iPhone SE is rumored to feature 5G support, improved cameras and Apple’s A15 Bionic chip, which debuted with the iPhone 13 series last year.
While the iPhone SE+ 5G will feature some improvements over its predecessor, there won’t be any major changes in the design department, as the smartphone is expected to retain the same old iPhone 8 design as 2017, according to GSM Arena.
Some previous rumors have hinted that the next iPhone SE will feature a more modern design. However, the latest rumors about the upcoming phone claim that the iPhone SE 2022 will feature the same design as the iPhone SE 2020, which followed the design of the 2017 iPhone 8.
That’s sure to look out of place in this year’s mobile world, where just about every phone, including those on a budget, opts for a full-screen look.
However, according to GSM Arena, the new iPhone SE will have none of these. However, a nice feature of the iPhone SE 2022 is that it will have 5G built-in.
By 2024, the iPhone SE should have a design reminiscent of the iPhone XR and iPhone 11, with a slightly smaller screen size. It won’t get Face ID, but will reportedly have a Touch ID sensor embedded in the power button.
