Last year, Apple launched the iPhone SE 2020 model in the first half of the year and four flagship iPhone 12 5G series phones in the second half. So, what will Apple do this year? The new iteration of the iPhone 12 is definitely not suspenseful. In addition, it will still be revealed in the second half of the year. As you understand, regardless of the new features, it will not be cheap. However, we think that Apple has a new asset. We believe the iPhone SE Plus will be discovered in the coming months. It will be much cheaper, support 5G connectivity and have many other advantages.
Even its name suggests that Apple does not design it as the second generation smartphone in this series. We mean that it will be basically based on the iPhone SE from last year.
But what’s more attractive is that the new iPhone SE Plus can adopt a 6.1-inch screen design. Its size and visual effects must be better than those of the 4.7-inch iPhone SE or even the 5.4-inch iPhone 12 mini. At the same time, the new machine can also support Touch ID, cancel the facial recognition function and use fingerprint recognition on the side on / off button.
The iPhone SE Plus hardware can also be upgraded. We heard that it will have Apple’s most powerful A14 Bionic chip. The latter is more powerful than the A13 on the iPhone SE last year. This SoC is a fierce competition for all the cutting edge chips on the market.
Most importantly, the chip supports the 5G dual-mode function, which is not available on the A13. Therefore, the iPhone SE Plus must be a dual mode 5G phone. In that case, the iPhone SE Plus will be more notable than the best-selling iPhone 11.
iPhone SE Plus, other features and prices
In other respects, it was revealed that the iPhone SE Plus can adopt a single front and rear camera system, with a 12 megapixel rear camera and a 7 megapixel selfie camera in the front. However, the highlight is support for OIS (optical image stabilization) and 6 portrait light effects. Although the experience may not be as rich as the three camera and four camera modules offer, under iOS’s excellent algorithm, there should still be good photography effects. This iPhone can also support waterproof and dustproof IP67. And it will come in three classic colors of black, red and white.

Finally, the iPhone SE Plus can start at $ 499. If that price is true, it is basically the same as last year’s iPhone SE price. Thus, there is no price increase, but the main selling points are updated. In other words, we are dealing with a more economical smartphone. In addition, the price is more affordable than Apple’s cheapest 5G phone, the iPhone 12 mini.
