Apple launched the much rumored and long awaitediPhone SE 2nd genin April this year. The $399 smartphone from Apple was widely well received. After all, the phone packed in flagship hardware, including the A13 Bionic for a fraction of the price of a flagship iPhone like the iPhone 11 ($649).
At $399, and with a design similar to the iPhone 8, the iPhone SE was the perfect bet for anyone looking to try out the iPhone without paying the premium that Apple usually charges for its smartphones. That’s likely a huge reason for the kind of sales Apple has seen for the iPhone SE.
Moreover, reports are suggesting that Apple is working on another affordable iPhone. This time, coming in under $300. It’s expected that Apple will launch such an iPhone next year. Personally, it seems a little improbable to me that Apple will go much further in terms of low cost iPhones. However, if it does, that can be a big issue for Android manufacturers who are currently ruling the budget smartphone segment.
