Apple officially announced February 19 as the launch date for its next device, sparking rumors that a new iteration of the affordable iPhone SE is in the pipeline. As stores are depleting stocks of the existing SE model, insiders are predicting an upgraded phone is around the corner.
The successor to the iPhone SE is set to have a revamped design, enhanced performance, and potentially 5G. Apple has been mum on the details, but rumors indicate that the new model will have a lot of improvements without sacrificing affordability.
With the iPhone SE targeting budget buyers and users who like smaller phones, the expected launch is set to increase Apple’s sales in major markets. The strategy of providing an affordable option along with its premium iPhones has worked for the company in the past.
As the clock ticks towards the event, Apple enthusiasts are waiting with bated breath for official announcements. The February 19 launch will likely unveil not just the new iPhone SE but possibly other hardware and software features, cementing Apple’s hold on the technology sector.
