There have been a lot of reports lately related to the upcoming iPhone SE smartphone from Apple which is coming with support for 5G connectivity for the first time. And here comes yet another report hinting at its delayed launch.
A couple of weeks ago, it was reported that this year’s iPhone SE with 5G support could launch in March. However, a new report now claims that the device’s launch could get pushed to April or May this year.
The report from Ross Young of Digital Supply Chain Consultants reveals that the panel production for the display that will be used in this year’s iPhone SE is starting this month, which puts the launch timeline in the second half of April or early May.
This new timeline is in line with what Bloomberg’s Mark Gurman suggested. He had reported that Apple will host a virtual event in March or April for the launch of the iPhone SE 3 smartphone in the market.
Based on the previous leaks and reports, the iPhone SE 2022 will be similar to the model available right now in terms of design but will arrive with better specifications. It will look like an iPhone 8 but will feature upgrades in terms of internals.
The phone is expected to come with a 4.7-inch Retina HD LCD display and will also feature a Home button with a fingerprint sensor embedded. It is likely to be the last Apple smartphone to come packed with an LCD display panel and a home button.
It will be powered by the Apple A15 processor along with 3GB of RAM while there could also be a Plus variant that will pack 4GB of RAM. The chipset also brings support for 5G connectivity to the phone. There will still be a 12-megapixel single camera sensor on the back with improved photography features.
