When is IPhone X SE or IPhone SE 2 release date?
If we are to assume that an iPhone SE 2 is indeed in the making, we see three potential launch dates.
The first is an Apple Education Event that is scheduled for 27 March. But we don't think this is very likely: Apple is more likely to talk about its new Everyone Can Code programme. Fuelling the rumours that it will indeed launch on 27 March, though, is the fact the original iPhone SE was announced on 21 March 2016, and then re-released with some hardware improvements on 24 March 2017. The timing is bang on.
Second, WWDC 2018. It's scheduled to take place on 4 June 2018, and though it's traditionally a developer conference it is also often the launch ground for new hardware. This is where our money is for now.
Third is the annual September event for which the new iPhone headlines. But with Apple wanting to focus everyone's attention on the flagship, it's unlikely to announce a smaller, cheaper phone that could compete with it on sales.
According to the Economic Daily News the iPhone SE 2 was scheduled to enter production in Q1 2018.
How much will IPhone SE 2 will cost?
Apple typically tries to keep its pricing constant when releasing new models, so we'd expect the new iPhone SE 2 to come in at £349/$349.
However, given that the iPhone SE 2 might see some significant upgrades, we might also see a price rise of between £50 and £100.
Will the iPhone SE 2 be an iPhone X SE?
Since Apple announced its iPhone X in September every product the company sells (or will soon sell) has been tipped to get the 'X' treatment. This has led to rumours of an iPad Pro X, and an iPhone X SE, among others.
Let's remember, though, that the 'X' in iPhone X really means ten. It's already a 'special-edition' phone brought in to commemorate the iPhone's 10-year anniversary. To create an iPhone X SE would be to create a special-edition version of a special-edition phone that is not yet 10 years old. Insane, right? Perhaps we should call it iPhone 2 SE SE.
But what Apple could potentially do is apply some of the design changes we saw in the iPhone X to other products in its line-up. So this could well be the end of chunky screen bezels on Apple products and the beginning of the age of the notch. We certainly hope so, for the former at least.
What are the rumored features and specifications of the iPhone SE 2?
The iPhone SE 2, if and when it arrives, will likely see some of the design changes we've seen in recent iPhones. It could well have an all-screen front with that infamous 'notch' design, along with a glass rear panel and Qi wireless charging, and it will more than likely come without a headphone jack but a Lightning adaptor in the box.
BGR has published sketches of what is said to be the iPhone SE and iPhone SE 2 side by side, which it received from a previously reliable source. If genuine, the notch would appear to be here to stay. Specifications are tipped to be very much iPhone 7-standard, with the A10 processor, 2GB of RAM, 32- or 128GB of storage, 12Mp and 5Mp cameras and a 1,700mAh battery, but the same 4inch screen. Apple is expected to cut down costs by dropping 3D Touch.
