The iPhone SE 3 is almost upon us now, with leaks and rumors piling up over the last couple of months. And as its launch draws closer, a new report shows that the iPhone SE 2 may already be on its way out.
The iPhone SE 3 looks to be getting increasingly harder to get and has even run out of stock at offline Apple Stores. And the places that do have stock have very little of it (via iMore).
Store surveys conducted in major cities across US show low inventories and unavailability of certain variants of the device. Key stores in Canada and popular UK stores like John Lewis and Argos have reported a similar situation.
Moreover, the waiting times for deliveries in the UK through Apple’s website are now stretching beyond two weeks.
iMore says that one Apple retail source in the UK has confirmed that they’re receiving far fewer iPhone SE 2 units since early February. This is limited to this device alone, meaning that dwindling stocks aren’t related to the semiconductor shortage.
The iPhone 3 SE is expected to be priced lower than its predecessor and may recycle the same old design once again. This info comes from a report by analyst John Donovan that projected that the phone could be sold for around $300, which is $100 cheaper than the iPhone SE 2.
In addition to that, the iPhone SE 3 will also most likely be gaining 5G support thanks to it allegedly being powered by the A15 Bionic chip.
