An iPhone SE Upgrade

The new device will be an upgrade of the iPhone SE. That low-cost model launched in 2016. However, no name or price for the new device has been decided yet.

A key motivation for the move is to boost sales, particularly in emerging markets. Low-cost Android devices are popular in both China and India, for instance. Jeff Pu, a tech analyst at GF Securities, told the Nikkei Asian Review:

The cheaper iPhone SE could serve as a sales momentum kicker the first half next year, if the new premium iPhones do not perform well in the coming months.

    I really like my iPhone SE. The small size form factor is perfect for me.
