New rumors are arriving regarding future models of Apple’s iPhone SE. The brand would launch a 5G-capable Plus model next year, and the third generation wouldn’t arrive until 2024.
Apple’s next affordable iPhone continues to arouse the curiosity of Internet users. While several rumors predicted the release of the iPhone SE 3 in 2022, new rumors point to a release in 2024 of the third generation of the affordable iPhone. But in 2022, Apple would instead launch a iPhone SE Plus compatible with 5G.
This iPhone would be the first in the range to benefit from connectivity to the 5G network and could be powered by the A15 Bionic chip from the iPhone 13. News that comes just after rumors that the iPhone SE 3 would have a design close to the iPhone 13. ‘iPhone XR of 2018.
A 4.7-inch iPhone SE Plus in 2022
Despite the supposed Plus denomination of the next iPhone SE model, the screen size would remain the same as the 2020 iPhone SE, from 4.7 inch. The Plus would then represent the improvement of the chip, which would be theA14 Bionic iPhone 12 orA15 Bionic iPhone 13, and the addition of 5G compatibility, according to a tweet from Ross Young echoed by 91Mobiles.
The next iPhone SE would therefore only offer slight improvements next year, but improvements that will bring the smartphone more up to date, in particular with compatibility with 5G which is predominant on the latest smartphones launched. Many manufacturers are offering affordable 5G phones today, so it makes sense for Apple to make their affordable iPhone a 5G iPhone.
According to information from Ross Young, the iPhone SE Plus has a design similar to iPhone 8, with a physical Touch ID button below the screen and a single camera on the back. It could be launched next spring, given that the iPhone SE 2020 launched in April 2020.
IPhone SE 3 postponed to 2024
The informant advises on Twitter that the iPhone SE 3 would have been pushed back in 2024 and is said to have a larger screen than the 2020 iPhone SE, which is 5.7 or 6.1 inches. It would be the affordable device that would benefit from an iPhone XR design, with a full screen and a Touch ID button placed on the edge, as on several recent iPads.
In addition, this model would still use an LCD panel, and it would be the very last Apple iPhone to have such a screen technology, according to several analysts.
We would therefore have a cycle of 2 years between each model of iPhone SE. However, this information should be taken with a grain of salt as it is all rumors. We will have to wait for confirmation in the coming months.
We now hear the next LCD iPhone will be introduced in 2022 and called the SE Plus with the same 4.7″ LCD as the 8 along with 5G. We hear the iPhone SE3 with a 5.7″ – 6.1″ LCD is now pushed to 2024. https://t.co/9gxiAAk8Yi
