Apple’s new iPhone SE comes in three colors.
Apple
Apple will begin taking orders for the second-generation iPhone SE tomorrow. The new iPhone SE is not only appealing because of its starting price of $399 (£419, AU$749), but also its design. The iPhone SE, which stands for Special Edition, has a 4.7-inch display — tiny by modern standards — and brings back Apple’s beloved home button with Touch ID. Don’t be tricked by its low price, this new iPhone is expected to be just as capable and nearly as powerful as the more expensive iPhone 11 ($699 at Apple), with a few exceptions.
The iPhone SE uses Apple’s A13 processor, has a 12-megapixel camera and wireless charging. It’s available with 64GB, 128GB or 256GB of storage and comes in black, white or red.
Preorders for the most affordable iPhone in Apple’s lineup open up worldwide tomorrow, Friday, April 17. Deliveries will next week on Friday, April 24. Here’s what you need to know to get one in your hands as soon as possible.
