As for when the new budget-friendly iPhone will be released, recent rumors from The Elec backed up by the already-known analyst Ming-Chi Kuo suggested that we may see this new device being announced only in the spring of 2024.
A great surprise, according to the latest rumors, is that the next Special Edition iPhone should ditch the outdated 9-year-old design and go for something more modern, closer to what we already have in the iPhone 14 series — this may come as a very good surprise since many tech websites also suggested that the looks could be the same as the super-popular $750 iPhone XR from 2018.
Aside from that, we can also expect in this new iteration of the iPhone SE:
• 6.1″ OLED panel with 60 Hz
• A16 Bionic SoC
• 4 to 6 GB of RAM
• 128 GB of storage (or 64 GB if Cupertino wants to go even cheaper)
• USB-C port (but with USB 2.0 speeds)
• Camera system inherited from the iPhone 14 (Face ID + 12 MP selfie camera and a 12 MP single-sensor on the back)
