The news said that the next cost-effective iPhone is basically determined

Since Apple opened up the second line of multi-model strategy, the iPhone product lineup has grown day by day. This special edition of the machine-sea tactics has given Apple a lot of sweetness.

The iPhone SE, which is positioned for entry, is the vanguard of Apple’s sea tactics. With its existence, the iPhone has taken a position in every price range from its early 3,000 yuan to more than 10,000 yuan. Undoubtedly, iPhone SE is the most cost-effective existence among iPhones.

According to the latest report by well-known Apple analyst Ming-Chi Kuo, the next cost-effective iPhone, the third-generation iPhone SE, is basically determined. He reiterated his previous forecast, stating that Apple will launch a new generation of iPhone SE in the first half of 2022.

He said that the positioning of the iPhone SE in 2022 is “the cheapest 5G iPhone ever.”

The new generation of iPhone SE will receive processor upgrades and 5G network support. According to tradition, the new iPhone SE will use the same SoC as the iPhone 13 series in the second half of this year. It may be called A15. Based on the upgraded 5nm process of TSMC, the performance will be further improved.

In addition, it was previously revealed that the iPhone 13 series is expected to be equipped with Qualcomm Snapdragon X60 5G Modem. The upgrade from the external 5G Modem of the iPhone 12 series to an integrated 5G Modem can achieve a better balance between performance and power consumption. It is expected to use the iPhone SE with the same configuration, and the energy consumption and battery life experience will be more friendly.

However, this is the main upgrade of the new iPhone SE. According to Ming-Chi Kuo, the third-generation iPhone SE will not make much change in its exterior design, and will continue to follow the existing iPhone SE “retro” style. In other words, the 4.7-inch LCD screen and the physical Home button that supports Touch ID should all be retained.

After the iPhone 12 mini was released last year, some friends sighed that this is what the iPhone SE should be like. In contrast, the iPhone SE, which “buy a chip and get a mobile phone,” is slightly old and out of step with the full-screen era. Couldn’t Apple design iPhone SE to look like iPhone 12 mini?

Unfortunately, at this stage, Apple is unlikely to do so. According to previous revelations, Apple will release the iPhone 13 series in the second half of this year, and continue to retain the 5.4-inch mini model. If a new design is adopted, the iPhone SE will surely take away the share of the iPhone 13 mini.

Here at Apple, the choice has always been simple. If you really like the small-screen iPhone and are greedy for the full-screen design, you still have to pay more and buy an iPhone 13 mini.

After attempts in recent years, Apple’s pricing strategy has been perfected. As the cheapest iPhone, iPhone SE takes the latest A-series flagship chips and iOS ecological experience as its core selling points, and decentralizes it to the mid-to-high-end market to maximize its share of Apple. With the brand influence accumulated by Apple, the good reputation of the iOS system and the latest 5G network support, the iPhone SE can still win Apple’s former users who have voted for the Android camp, or become the key for new users to enter the new iPhone world.

So, is this cost-effective iPhone that buys chips and gives mobile phones what you like?
