Apple iPhone SE 2 coming early next year with iPhone 8 design: Report 

According to long-time Apple analyst Ming-Chi Kuo, Apple is indeed working on an iPhone SE successor – iPhone SE 2. Rumours that iPhone SE 2 is in development have been going around since 2017 but two years down line, we’re yet to see m come to life. That said, if Kuo’s words are to be believed – analyst has had a good track record in se things – n Apple may launch iPhone SE 2 early next year, that is sometime in Q1 2020.  

iPhone SE was launched with an iPhone 5-like body with innards of iPhone 6S. idea was to offer a smaller, more affordable iPhone for developing markets – although, iPhone SE wasn’t exactly cheap to get in India even after all those measures. In 2019 however, Apple has launched iPhone 11 at a relatively more affordable price in comparison to last year’s iPhone XR. So, you can say that change is in air. An affordable – and possibly smaller – iPhone SE 2 won’t be a surprise in this scenario. 

iPhone SE 2: iPhone 11 in an iPhone 8 body?

Kuo tes that iPhone SE 2 will have a design similar to iPhone 8 but it will pack Apple A13 processor – which is also found inside latest and greatest iPhones. This means that iPhone SE 2 could be launched with an iPhone 8-like body with innards of iPhone 11. Again, even that won’t be surprising since iPhone 8 is w in dire need for a phase out. It is most affordable iPhone that Apple sells in many markets and refore a refresh – vis a vis a hardware – will be a nice touch. 

That's t case in India though. Apple quietly introduced a new 128GB stor variant of iPhone 8 and iPhone 8 Plus in India recently, while also slashing price of existing 64GB variant post iPhone 11 launch.  

iPhone 8 w starts at Rs 39,900 for base variant with 64GB stor, while 128GB stor variant will sell for Rs 44,900.  iPhone 8 Plus w starts at Rs 49,900 for base variant with 64GB stor, while 128GB stor variant will sell for Rs 54,900. iPhone 8 and iPhone 8 Plus are t most affordable iPhones that you can get though – Apple is also continuing to sell iPhone 7 and iPhone 7 Plus in India.
