Description:
A leak suggests an iPhone SE Plus with 5G might land soon, but the iPhone SE
3 has reportedly been delayed.

FULL STORY ======================================================================

The iPhone SE (2020) is well over a year old now, so we had hoped we might
see the iPhone SE 3 soon, but the latest leak suggests thats not to be.

According to leaker Ross Young , the iPhone SE 3 has been delayed until 2024, so it might not land for years. Apparently when it does land though it will have a larger 5.7 - 6.1-inch LCD screen. Thats up from 4.7 inches on the iPhone SE (2020).

Young doesnt say anything else about the phone, but if that size is accurate then wed think it will probably sport a more modern design, with smaller bezels and no home button, more in line with the iPhone 13 than the iPhone 8 that the current SE is based on. Otherwise it could be a substantially large phone, and one that might look incredibly dated by 2024. Read our full iPhone 13 Pro review These are the best iPhones Check out the best iPhone apps We
now hear the next LCD iPhone will be introduced in 2022 and called the SE
Plus with the same 4.7" LCD as the 8 along with 5G. We hear the iPhone SE3 with a 5.7" - 6.1" LCD is now pushed to 2024. https://t.co/9gxiAAk8Yi October 25, 2021 See more

However, anyone whos after a new affordable iPhone wont necessarily have to wait that long, as Young adds that well apparently see an iPhone SE Plus in 2022. This is said to have the same 4.7-inch LCD screen as the iPhone SE (2020) and the iPhone 8, but with the addition of 5G.

Wed expect more will change than just the connectivity options at the very least wed think a slightly newer chipset would probably be included to keep the iPhone SE Plus current, but Young doesnt comment on that.

We would however take all of this with a pinch of salt. While Young has a solid track record, just the other day we heard that the next iPhone SE would launch in early 2022 but with a design based on the iPhone XR which would likely mean a 6.1-inch screen. So thats at odds with what Young says about
the iPhone SE Plus. For now, its hard to say which if either leak is right. Analysis: its not the first time weve heard about an iPhone SE Plus

Most iPhone SE rumors have been focused on the iPhone SE 3, but weve actually been hearing about an iPhone SE Plus since slightly before the iPhone SE (2020) even launched.

However, previous leaks had suggested the iPhone SE Plus would have a larger screen than the iPhone SE (2020), whereas Young reckons it will be the same size.

A larger display would fit better with the name, especially as Apple has previously used Plus to denote larger screens, as with the iPhone 8 Plus for example. So theres a lot of uncertainty surrounding this phone, and wed take everything were hearing with a pinch of salt until more concrete details emerge.
