● 2020 iPhone SE release date and pricing
Jon Prosser, a famous tech personality announced on Twitter two weeks ago that during an internal meeting Apple decided to go for a plan B. That’s because their plan A to release the new iPhone 9/SE during a host event on April did not work. Apple is probably now thinking to announce the iPhone 9/SE on April 15th and to start shipping on April 22th according to him. However, we all know that things might not go as they have planned because of the world’s chaotic situation. What we can say for the moment that it might be launched soon, so get ready! Now let’s move to the most important part, which is the price. There are already some rumors saying that this phone will range from $399 for 64GB . Buying an iPhone with such a price will be an accomplishment isn’t it? Especially if we compare to the iPhone 8 as it costs $499 for 64GB.Apple’s decision to release the iPhone 9/SE just after releasing the flawless serie of iPhone 11 was not arbitrary. Buying a phone for more than $900 is not given for anyone. So, if you don’t want to spend a lot of money and to live the experience fully. This phone is for you!
● 2020 iPhone 9/SE naming
As you can see from the title, apple did not reveal the truth about the name of their newborn. We cannot blame them as this information constitutes one of the most important components of their powerful marketing strategy. However, we can guess that Apple will choose iPhone SE as a name. It’s just a simple analysis based on our research. We have noticed that Apple decided to launch a new phone which is quite similar to the iPhone 8 but with similar characteristics to the iPhone 6. In addition, this new phone will be more likely popular among the iPhone 6 user who did not have the chance yet to make an upgrade because of the expensive prices. Apple’s goal, as people have reported, is to enable people who still use iPhone 6 and iPhone 6 Plus to update by 2020 with iPhone SE. That makes some sense, especially as iOS 13 lowered some devices this year.
This new phone will make a spectacular change in the lives of iPhone 6 users, that’s why we predicted that iPhone SE will be the name of another phone in the serie of SE phones.
● iPhone SE/iPhone 9: Design & Display
In terms of design and display, the mysterious iPhone SE/iPhone 9 will probably look similar to the iPhone 8. Unsurprisingly, with its economical price we are not dreaming of something like the new iPhone 11 pro or iPhone 11 pro Max. As Apple wanted to keep the design details as a secret, we are still predicting and trying to find an answer from popular Tech content creators. Ming-Chi Kuo who is a reference when it comes to Apple product reviews or predictions mentioned that “For the most part, the form factor design and hardware spec are similar to iPhone 8’s“. In a nutshell, The iPhone SE/9 will come up with a screen size of almost 4.7-inches, it will be probably the same as the iPhone 8 screen according to several rumors. It will not include facial ID, neither an OLED display giving its affordable price.
● iPhone 9/SE specs
Carrying on with the suggested predictions of Ming-Chi Kuo who is and several trusted resources. Something from the following list would appear in the near future to make up the new iPhone 9/SE specs.
- 3GB RAM ( This might not be a good feature for you if your are a heavy phone user)
- A13 chipset (the same as used in the current iPhone 11)
- 7-inch LCD screen (If you are not interested in having a high-resolution screen, and you are contented with an LCD screen for your daily usage it’s fine)
- Touch ID button without Face ID
- Single camera (MP still unknown)
- 32-64GB storage starting option
- No headphone jack ( For Apple this option is useless nowadays, It is not an issue as you can still save a lot of money after buying this phone and buy high-quality Airpods with the rest of money)
