The iPhone SE 2022 will likely arrive in March or April
The iPhone SE 2020 Back Hand Red.

Apple is just a few months away from introducing an iPhone SE refresh, says analyst Mark Gurman from Bloomberg. In the latest edition of his PowerOn newsletter, Gurman mentions that the company is planning a virtual launch event in March or April, and a new iPhone SE is very much likely to make an appearance.

The iPhone SE will reportedly be Apple’s cheapest 5G-ready phone to date, and many analysts view it as a valuable enabler for users, as well as Apple’s carrier partners who are in the 5G expansion phase. The previous-generation iPhone SE arrived in 2020 carrying a $399 price tag. And even if one includes the “5G tax” conundrum, Apple will likely sell its successor for below the $500 margin to retain the competitive edge.

As for the phone itself, well, it is turning out to be a fairly boring refresh. Credible sources like TFI Securities analyst Ming-Chi Kuo have mentioned in the past few months that the 2022 iPhone SE will rock the same design as its 2020 sibling, which in turn, goes all the way back to the iPhone 8 from 2017.
