Apple iPhone SE 2022 shipments are expected to be around 30 million units, which is about the same as its previous model’s 2020 shipments of 25-30 million units, according to estimates by Digitimes research analysts Sean Lin and Luke Lin.

The report says that Apple has already prepared less than 5 million components for the new iPhone SE in the first quarter of this year, but actual shipments will be lower than that number.

However, shipments in the next quarter are expected to surge to 11 million units, with the third quarter seeing sales in similar numbers. The shipments will only start dropping from the fourth quarter to make way for the release of the next-generation iPhone 14.

The iPhone SE 2022 along with phone sales from Samsung and Chinese OEMs are expected to significantly boost 5G mobile phone shipments in non-Chinese markets in 2022.

In 2021, a total of about 280 million 5G mobile phones were shipped to markets outside of markets. This figure is expected to rise by more than 60% to 450 million units, accounting for 63.5% of global shipments.

But since 80% of phone shipments in China are already 5G models, shipments there are expected to achieve only single-digit YoY growth in 2022.

Earlier this week, Apple unveiled a few new devices at a launch event, including the third-generation iPhone SE. The smartphone comes in improved specifications and features compared to its predecessor.

Among the enhancements for the smartphone, Apple has also increased the memory of the device, which the company has not yet advertised.

The new Apple iPhone SE now comes packed with 4GB RAM, which is more than 3GB RAM that the company offers in the second-generation model. This was confirmed by MacRumors with information sourced from strings within the Xcode 13.3 Release Candidate that Apple released following the launch event.

With the increased memory on the device, there should a noticeable performance improvement. More applications, as well as webpages in Safari, can now remain active in the background. Also, some tasks like photo and video editing can also benefit from this.

The Apple iPhone SE 3 features the same 4.7-inch display and keeps the home button with Touch ID, similar to its predecessor. However, it now packs an A15 Bionic processor which also supports 5G connectivity. In the camera department, the smartphone features a 12-megapixel camera sensor with a few new features.

The smartphone will be available for pre-order from 11th March in the United States, Australia, Canada, China, France, Germany, India, Japan, the United Kingdom, and more than 30 other countries and regions. The sale of the device will begin from 18th March.

The post Apple’s newly launched iPhone SE comes packed with 4GB of RAM appeared first on Gizmochina.

Apple, Tuesday, held its “Peek performance” event where a number of interesting products were unveiled. While the M1 Ultra chipset could be termed the most interesting product announced, the US company also took the wraps off a new affordable iPhone – the iPhone SE (2022).

The iPhone SE 2022 is the third iteration in the series and it takes over the rein from the iPhone SE (2020) that was launched in (you guessed right) 2020. Thus, the product comes with lots of expectations and has been a regular in the rumor mill.

The iPhone SE (2022) comes with several interesting features onboard. You get the latest flagship A15 Bionic chipset that is utilized by the iPhone 13 series. This brings 5G connectivity support to the budget iPhone. The phone is also fairly priced, starting at $429, just a tad higher than the iPhone SE 2020 which retails for $399.

Design-wise, the iPhone SE 2022 retains the outdated design utilized on the iPhone SE 2020 which is also similar to the iPhone 8’s design. At the rear, the device packs a single 12MP camera nested at the top left corner of the back panel which is made from glass.

At the front, the device features a 4.7-inch display with large bezels at the top and bottom edges. The display and back panel is protected by glass which Apple termed the “toughest glass on a smartphone”, which is perhaps the proprietary Ceramic Shield. The device also packs a Touch ID fingerprint reader right below the screen.

In addition, the iPhone SE (2022) gains 5G connectivity but does not support 5G mmWave bands. Instead, it utilizes the sub-6 GHz band. The efficient A15 Bionic onboard also brings improvement in the battery life of the budget iPhone. There is also support for IP67 water and dust resistance. Although, there were speculations that the device will have MagSafe charging support but it doesn’t. However, the device supports Qi wireless charging.

The new iPhone SE (2022) is available in 64GB, 128GB and 256GB storage options. In terms of colors, the phone will be available in midnight, starlight, and PRODUCT Red colorway. Pricing starts at $429 for the 64GB version and the device is expected to go on sale from March 18 in 30 countries including the US, Australia, Canada, China, France, Germany, India, Japan, and the United Kingdom. The iPhone SE 3 will be available to pre-order from March 11.

8. Nothing Smartphone 

One of the exciting launches this month will be the Nothing smartphone. Nothing is expected to launch its first smartphone by the end of March. The company will bring the new phone in partnership with Qualcomm, so we can expect a Snapdragon chipset inside the device.

Interestingly, the Nothing smartphone will be like its TWS buds, meaning that it will come with a transparent housing. A few concept images of the phone revealed a rear-mounted fingerprint scanner. The smartphone is expected to run on the Android operating system.

9. Samsung Galaxy A13 4G, A33 5G, M23 5G, M33 5G, F23

The Vivo T1 Pro 5G’s specs are unknown at the moment but it is expected to offer great specs at an affordable price. Just like the T1 5G, the T1 Pro 5G will also be an online exclusive smartphone. We can expect the device to bring a better display over the T1, an upgraded chipset, and a faster-charging speed.

11. Micromax In 2, In 2C

Micromax is expected to launch new smartphones this month. The company may launch the In 2 and In 2C by late March.

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.

The post Apple iPhone SE 2 stocks running out as next iteration draws closer to launch appeared first on Gizmochina.

There are indications that the Apple iPhone SE that could be released anytime soon could be cheaper than its predecessor from 2020. The third iteration of the iPhone SE is the iPhone SE 3 will likely have the same design as its predecessor while its improved internal setup will likely guarantee more updates. This also means that the iPhone SE 3 could have enhanced longevity in addition to the projected lower pricing for the device.

The information of a cheaper iPhone SE 3 is culled from a report by analyst John Donovan projecting that the product could be sold around $300 which is about $100 less than the iPhone SE 2. It is not clear whether the price will be due to some incentive package or it is a flat offer from Apple. A recent report had also projected the price of the iPhone SE 3 around $300.

The fact however remains that the iPhone SE 3 will be targeting the lower end of the market spectrum and it is likely to be budget-friendly, supporting the lower price proposition. Although Apple is a powerhouse in the high-end segment of the smartphone market, it will be interesting to see how it performs in the mid-range segment of the market where Android products hold the aces. We expect to see an improved design together with 5G connectivity and overall improved performance of the iPhone SE 3. The new model is likely to be powered by the A15 Bionic chip which is what we find in the iPhone 13 lineup.

The post Apple iPhone SE 3 could be priced lower than its predecessor appeared first on Gizmochina.

An unnamed source has released some images of the yet-to-be-released iPhone SE 3 which shows a little departure from the iPhone SE design. The images, if authentic, provide the strongest indication yet that it is not far off design-wise from the current iPhone SE model.

The source of the images revealed the details to Front Page Tech’s Jon Prosser and could be viewed on the Genius Bar podcast. Although the quality of the images was restrictive since Prosser displayed them from his iPad, we could see a clear resemblance to the iPhone SE. These are the first real-life images of the iPhone SE 3, although we cannot say authoritatively that these images were authentic. The iPhone SE 3 is meant to be a budget smartphone with some of the exciting functionalities that we have come to know the Apple brand for.

Apple will update some of the interior components of the new iPhone SE 3 to distinguish it from its predecessor. It comes with a 4.7-inch display, a Touch ID button, and thick bezels. Likely to be powered by an A15 Bionic chipset, the iPhone SE 3 will offer 5G connectivity and will not have flagship capabilities, partly due to price considerations. The camera setup of the iPhone SE 3 also provides a better output than the iPhone SE 2020.

The Apple iPhone SE 3 could be part of the lineup of devices that will be showcased in the upcoming Apple event in a couple of months. The Apple spring unveiling event could include the iPad Pro 22, iPad Air 5, and possibly an iMac model. The Apple iPhone 14 lineup is already scheduled for a fall 2022 unveiling. They are a lot of details still lacking for the iPhone SE 3 including pricing information and global availability. These details will start coming to the fore as we inch closer to the eventual unveiling of the iPhone SE 3.

The post Purported iPhone SE 3 images appear online but are likely fake appeared first on Gizmochina.

Last month, we reported that Apple might soon launch the iPhone SE 2022. Now, a report has surfaced stating that Apple has imported the new iPhone SE model for testing in India along with the iPad Air refresh and a new budget iPad.

According to 91mobiles, industry sources have informed that the upcoming iPhone models are imported under model numbers A2595, A2783, and A2784. The smartphone is said to be priced at around $300.

The report claims that this could be the iPhone SE 3. However, previous leaks have stated that Apple has delayed the SE 3 to 2023 and will likely release the iPhone SE Plus in the coming months. So we are most likely looking at the test samples of the iPhone SE Plus.

Other than that, the report reveals two new iPad models that have entered the country for testing. The devices carrying model numbers A2588 and A2589 are believed to be the iPad Air refresh dubbed the iPad Air 5. The two model numbers hint towards WiFi-only and WiFi+Cellular models. They carry a price tag of $500-$700.

The budget iPad carrying model numbers A2757 and A2589 is priced at roughly $300.

These devices will most likely come with a higher price tag than mentioned above due to added import duties and other levies so we suggest you take these prices with a grain of salt.

So far, the upcoming iPhone SE 2022 or the SE Plus model 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.

Previous leaks have indicated towards an April-May launch of the iPhone SE 2022, however, judging by this recent development, Apple might launch the new iPhone in early spring.

Back in October 2021, rumors surfaced that Apple had postponed the iPhone SE 3 and would instead release the iPhone SE Plus in 2022. Now, DSCC analyst Ross Young who initially broke the news in October is back with more details regarding the upcoming iPhone SE models.

The iPhone SE series is a line of affordable small-screen iPhones that was first introduced in 2016. The second phone in the series didn’t launch till 2020 and a successor is expected to arrive in 2022.

Next SE model is rumored to be called SE+ 5G and will have a 4.7" LCD. Previously said the next SE model, SE3, would either have a 5.7" or a 6.1" display. It is now looking like it will be 5.7". May be launched in 2023 rather than 2024.

— Ross Young (@DSCCRoss) January 17, 2022

According to the latest tweet by DSCC analyst Ross Young the next iPhone SE model will indeed be called the iPhone SE Plus. The SE Plus will be the first device in the SE lineup to offer 5G support and is expected to house a 4.7-inch  LCD display. The device is also expected to retain the same design with thick top and bottom bezzles and have a Touch ID button.

The iPhone SE Plus is expected to debut in the next few months with the A15 Bionic chip, improved rear camera sensor, and 5G support.

Ross Young also states that the iPhone SE 3 might launch in 2023 rather than the previously predicted 2024 timeline and will have a 5.7-inch display.

Going by recent CAD renders, the iPhone SE 3 will retain the same rear design and have the same dimensions as the current iPhone SE. However, on the front, the device will offer a bigger screen by getting rid of the massive forehead chin, and touch ID button found in current-gen SE models. The SE 3 is also expected to house the A15 Bionic chipset and support 5G bands.

The post iPhone SE Plus to debut in 2022, iPhone SE 3 arrives 2023: Report appeared first on Gizmochina.

The iPhone SE 3 has been in the works for more than a year now and has been subject to various leaks and rumors regarding its design and specs. Some have claimed it will come with a hardware upgrade and the same design as its predecessor, while others state it’ll feature a whole new appearance. Now, a new leak has revealed its design via CAD renders.

According to a TenTechReview report, tipster @xleaks7 has revealed new CAD renders showcasing the design of the upcoming iPhone SE 3.

iPhone SE 3 CAD renders

1 of 3

According to these new renders, the SE 3 retains the same rear design with a single camera and LED flash. The dimensions also remain exactly the same as on the previous model, 138.4 x 67.3 x 7.3 mm. However, the similarities end there as the device has a new look at the front.

The front has a larger screen as the device has reportedly gotten rid of the massive forehead, chin, and touch ID button found in current-gen SE models. According to the tipster, the device will likely feature a 5.69-inch screen and may come with a notch design for the Face ID and selfie camera sensor.

The right side spine will apparently house a power button and sim tray while the left side will have volume buttons and a silent mode switch. The new design makes the phone look more like an iPhone XR rather than an iPhone SE device.

The upcoming iPhone SE 3 is said to house an A14 Bionic or the A15 Bionic chipset and come with 5G network connectivity.

These new designs render however are in stark contrast to previous leaks from trusted sources like the noted Apple analyst and Bloomberg correspondent Mark Gurman, who earlier stated that the iPhone SE 3 design will be akin to iPhone SE 2’s. So we suggest you take these recent design renders with a pinch of salt and stay tuned for more updates on the matter.

Apple has a budget iPhone in the form of SE series and so far, the company has launched two models in the market. The Cupertino-based technology giant is now expected to launch the third-generation model sometime next year.

Now, if the new report is to be believed, then the Apple iPhone SE 3 is set to soon enter the trial production phase. It is also being reported that multiple vendors are now preparing for the shipment of components for the upcoming iPhone SE model.

Based on the leaks so far, the upcoming Apple iPhone SE 3 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.

The device is expected to come powered by the Apple A15 processor along with 3GB of RAM while the Plus variant 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.

In its recent estimate, J.P. Morgan says that this new iPhone SE could lure nearly 1.4 billion low to mid-range Android phone users and about 300 million older iPhone model users. It has raised estimates for fiscal 2022 iPhone SE sales to 30 million units and annual iPhone shipments expectations to 250 million units, which is 10 million higher than this year.

The post Apple iPhone SE 3 with 5G connectivity support to soon enter trial production appeared first on Gizmochina.

Earlier this month, we covered reports of Apple working on a new iPhone SE model, which is expected to arrive in the first quarter of 2022. Now, recent reports have surfaced bolstering this rumor.

A paywalled report from the Taiwanese publication, DigiTimes, states “VCM suppliers see no cutback in orders for new iPhones: VCM (voice coil motor) and other component suppliers have still seen no cutback in orders for the new iPhones, and are gearing up for shipments for the next generation of Apple’s iPhone SE series slated for launch in the first half of 2022, according to industry sources.” (via)

Previously, reliable Apple analyst Ming-Chi Kuo tipped that the upcoming iPhone SE will be similar in appearance to the existing iPhone SE 2020 model. Hence, it is expected to retain the 4.7-inch display, touch ID home button and thick bezzles. The only significant change the iPhone SE 2022 might offer is the inclusion of a new processor that will bring support for 5G connectivity.

The upcoming mid-ranger from Apple is also reported to be the last iPhone to be equipped with an LCD screen while carrying 3GB RAM. While rumors have been going around of the 2023 iPhone SE that is expected to be based on iPhone XR‘s design, carrying a larger display and 4GB of RAM.

The Apple iPhone SE 3 is expected to launch sometime next year. But prior to its launch, a new report has revealed some interesting information regarding the upcoming iPhone model.

The news arrives from a tipster @Arsenal on Weibo (a Chinese microblogging website). The Cupertino based giant’s iPhone SE 3 will still feature an LCD display panel. This would mean that the device is the only smartphone model from the brand to feature LCD screen as the latest iPhone 13 lineup also sports OLED panels. In recent years, many brands have shifted towards OLED screens, which is the now the norm for flagship handsets.

Furthermore, the tipster added that the LCD display on the compact iPhone would make it more affordable. Apparently, the next gen iPhone SE 3 will also be built on the chassis of the older iPhone XR model, with the A15 Bionic chipset powering the device. This is similar to the last generation iPhone SE 2 that was built on the iPhone 8. The leak added that it will be available in multiple storage variants, including the 64GB, 128GB, and 256GB options. This is still an unconfirmed report, so take it with a pinch of salt and stay tuned for more as we will be providing updates when additional information is available regarding this matter.

In the past couple of months, the iPhone SE 3 has been subject to multiple rumours. Recently, the phone’s concept renders were revealed and were suggested that the device will use the same chassis as the predecessor iPhone SE 2020. Now, a new piece of information from Macotakara reveals that there will be a new iPhone SE model with upgraded connectivity and internals, but will have the same design as the old SE.

According to Macotakara, the Apple iPhone SE 3 will feature 5G connectivity instead of 4G seen in the iPhone SE 2020. The smartphone is also touted to bring improved performance with upgraded internals. Rumours have it that Apple will use the A15 Bionic chipset. For those who haven’t been following the Apple world, the A15 Bionic is the same chipset that powers the latest iPhone 13 series. 

That said, the phone will have a performance boost paired with a good network. The device will have Qualcomm’s Snapdragon X60 5G modem and is expected to have physical SIM and eSIM support. In terms of the other specs, the phone may feature a 4.7-inch display with noticeable bezels at the top and bottom. It could also feature a TouchID sensor which will double up as a home button.

The iPhone SE 3 is expected to be the most powerful compact smartphone launching in the upcoming months. Apple is yet to reveal the official launch date for the phone but, we expect it to launch soon.

The post Apple iPhone SE 3 will have 5G connectivity and upgraded chipset appeared first on Gizmochina.

Earlier we reported that Apple will launch the next Special Edition smartphone in 2022. Rumors have it that the smartphone may come powered by the Apple A14 Bionic chipset and will have a familiar design. Now, a new report suggests that the iPhone SE 3(a.k.a iPhone SE 2022) will be the cheapest 5G iPhone. Additionally, the concept renders of the smartphone have also been surfaced.

According to popular Apple analyst Ming-Chi Kuo, the iPhone SE 3 will be a 5G phone and it will be the cheapest 5G Apple device next year. It is touted to be even cheaper than the existing Apple iPhone 12 mini.

Hopping to the concept renders, the iPhone SE 3 looks exactly like the iPhone XR but with a slightly tweaked camera module. It has a single camera at the rear and an LED flash just beside the lens.

Notably, it seems to come in multiple colors and the concept renders give us an idea of what to expect. It has Red, Orange, Green, Yellow, Blue, and Purple colors.

Interestingly, the other renders of the phone showcase the Bicolor shades of the phone where the device has a dual-tone color scheme. It flaunts the Apple branding at the center, and half of the back panel has a darker shade, whereas, the other part of the panel has a lighter shade.

The smartphone features a notch display, and by no means it is like the rumored iPhone 13 screens. It has the same size notch as the iPhone XR, iPhone 11, and the button positionings are also the same.

That said, the iPhone SE 3 is not expected to bring anything new, especially in terms of the design. At the helm, it is speculated to come powered by the Apple A14 Bionic chipset which is the same as the existing iPhone 12 series.

The post Apple iPhone SE 3 will be the cheapest 5G iPhone, Concept renders Surfaced appeared first on Gizmochina.

A well-known and reliable Tianfeng International analyst Ming-Chi Kuo has released his forecast related to the Apple iPhone lineup from the next couple of years. In the report, the interesting take is on the smaller iPhone SE.

As per the report, Apple won’t be releasing the next-generation model of the new Apple iPhone SE (2020) this year. Instead, the device will be launched next year.

He further goes on to mention that there won’t be much change in terms of design of the smartphone and the display size of 4.7-inch could also remain the same. However, the company will be upgrading the processor and add support for 5G connectivity.

While it is mentioned that the chipset in the device will be upgraded, the report doesn’t reveal which processor will be used. Our speculation is that the device could pack the same chipset used in the upcoming iPhone 14 lineup or the current A14 Bionic.

The delayed launch of iPhone SE 3 doesn’t mean there won’t be a new iPhone SE model this year. As per the reports, the Cupertino-based giant is gearing up to launch iPhone SE Plus later this year.

The upcoming iPhone SE Plus is expected to come with a 6.1-inch display with a cutout on top of the screen. In the camera department, there could be a 12-megapixel dual-camera setup. Under the hood, it will pack A14 processor without 5G support and the device is also said to have support for a side-mounted fingerprint sensor.
