Now, just moments before the supposed launch, new leaks have surfaced of the iPhone SE that detail some exciting features which will come with the new affordable iPhone. According to tipster lanzuk, Taiwanese supply chain sources have informed that the iPhone SE 3 will indeed come with Apple’s in-house A15 Bionic chipset. These are the same chips that power the current iPhone 13 lineup. The tipster also added that the smartphone will come with an improved camera system over its predecessor which has previously been stated by trusted sources like Bloomberg’s Mark Gurman.

The tipster also says that the iPhone SE 2022 will get a bigger battery compared to the 1,821mAh battery on the iPhone SE 2020, and in combination with the more power-efficient A15 chip, the phone is sure to get a solid battery performance boost. On the topic of battery, the leaker says that the phone will come with MagSafe charging support, which is in contrast to the majority of previous leaks we have received so far.

For increased durability, the smartphone will come with the ceramic shield glass that was introduced with iPhone 12. The material is a combination of glass and ceramic and is meant to protect the phone in case it’s dropped accidentally.

And lastly, the tipster informs that the entry-level Apple smartphone will be begging a bump in its RAM capacity landing it at 4GB from the 3GB featured on the last-gen SE model.

The base price of the smartphone is expected to be the same as last gen and it will likely debut with a $399 price tag, contrary to previous reports which have stated that the smartphone will be priced around $300.

However, the credibility of these leaks are up for debate so we suggest that you take it with a pinch of salt and stay tuned for our coverage of the Apple Peek Performance launch event.
