Apple will apparently introduce a new budget iPhone SE on February 19. According to unofficial data, the new iPhone SE will look similar to the iPhone 14. The smartphone will have the same 6.06-inch OLED display with a Full HD+ resolution, a refresh rate of 60 Hz, and a large cutout for the front camera and Face ID.
But inside, the budget iPhone will repeat the iPhone 16 – rumors point to the proprietary Apple A18 chip combined with 8 GB of RAM, which will allow for the implementation of support for functions based on Apple Intelligence. Leaks also indicate the presence of only one rear camera. As for the price, the retail price of the iPhone SE, according to rumors, will be $ 499, which is $ 70 higher than the previous generation model released in 2022.
There’s a chance Apple will unveil other products. Recent rumors have pointed to an imminent announcement of a MacBook Air with the M4 chip, a new iPad Air based on the M3, and a new base model of the 11th-generation iPad. Some saw a hint of new AirPods in Cook’s teaser. But the most likely announcement is the fourth-generation iPhone SE.
