Apple to Begin 'iPhone SE 2' Production in January Ahead of March Release [Report]

The rumored 'iPhone SE 2' will begin mass production in January and launch at the end of March, according to analyst Ming-Chi Kuo.

This schedule matches up with the original iPhone SE which was announced on March 21, 2016. Pre-orders for that device began on March 24th and it was released on March 31, 2016. Apple also upgraded the device a year later on March 24, 2017 with larger storage capacities.

The iPhone SE 2 is expected to feature a similar design as the iPhone 8 with a 4.7-inch display, an A13 processor, 3GB of LPDDR4X RAM, 64GB and 128GB storage options, a Home button, and a Liquid Crystal Polymer (LCP) antenna design. It will allegedly be offered in Space Gray, Silver and Red colors for a starting price of $399.


Kuo believes the device will be a popular upgrade choice for many iPhone 6 and iPhone 6 Plus owners.
