iPhone SE 3: Apple is stepping on the brakes for good reason

iPhone SE 3: Apple is stepping on the brakes for good reason

When will there be a new and inexpensive Apple cell phone again? The successor to the iPhone SE will actually come next year, but a really new model is still years away - Apple's plans are on the table.

We have known for a few months: A new iPhone SE should appear next year. The changes will be kept within limits, however, because externally it remains the current design. Ergo: 4.7-inch display and in the shape of the current iPhone SE, based on the former iPhone 8. There is only something new inside: the latest Apple chip and 5G modem.

iPhone SE in a new design: Apple postpones release to 2024

Now expert and insider Ross Young reveals the name of the cheap Apple cell phone: iPhone SE Plus (source Ross Young). Look familiar to us. We remember that on the iPhone 6, 6s, 7 and 8, the plus stood for the variant with a larger 5.5-inch screen. But this should not be the case with the iPhone SE Plus, the 4.7-inch touchscreen remains. All a bit confusing for customers who were used to Apple's nomenclature.

On the other hand, the manufacturer is known to like to revive old names. Would you like some examples? The iBook was a cheap notebook, and iBooks was an app for reading digital books. The iSight was Apple's webcam at first, later Apple reactivated the name briefly for the rear camera of the iPhones. In the near future, the "plus" could stand for an improved, but not enlarged, version of the iPhone SE.

The design of the current iPhone SE (our test report in the video ) will probably be with us until 2024:

But when will the actual iPhone SE 3 come with a new design? So far, the industry has always said: 2023. Insider Young, on the other hand, destroys this hope and claims to have learned that this ominous iPhone SE has been postponed by Apple to the year 2024 . So we would have to wait more than two years for an inexpensive and redesigned iPhone SE with a 5.8- or 6.1-inch display. This could then be based on the iPhone X, iPhone XR or iPhone 11, for example.

Apple's reasons for the current approach

So Apple is stepping on the brakes, but there's a good reason for that ...

Why is Apple so hesitant about the iPhone SE? A possible explanation from editor Sven Kaulfuss: For Apple, the iPhone SE is clearly the smartphone with the lowest denominator . A hodgepodge of tried and tested technology, which is "renovated" with the least amount of effort and which has been proven to generate the already clear development costs several times over a longer period of time. Apple can and does take its time. Much speaks in favor of a two-year cycle when filling the respective product slot, as the following figures suggest:

iPhone SE: 2016 to 2018 iPhone 7/8: 2018 to 2020 (Note: The devices appeared earlier, but from autumn 2018 or autumn 2019 they replaced the discontinued iPhone SE and took the place.) iPhone SE 2. Generation: 2020 to 2022 (accepted) iPhone SE Plus: 2022 to 2024 (accepted) iPhone SE TBA: from 2024

In this respect, the plan that Apple has now made known is not so surprising in the end and fits perfectly into the picture.
