"At the March event, Apple is finally expected to launch the much-awaited iPhone SE 2020 successor. The device is either likely to be called iPhone SE 3 or iPhone SE Plus. Ahead of the launch, several details of the upcoming iPhone have leaked online," the BGR India reported.

The iPhone SE 3 is said to be powered by A15 Bionic chipset, which also runs the latest flagship iPhone 13 series. It is likely to sport iPhone SE (2020) like curved design with a single camera on the rear and front panel.

This iPhone model is likely to ditch FaceID for TouchID. In terms of specifications, the iPhone SE 3 is said to be an upgraded version with a competitive price tag. According to the report, the upcoming 5G iPhone SE 3 will be priced lower than $300, which roughly translates to around Rs 23,000. The exact pricing is yet to be revealed.

Reports also suggest, following the launch of the iPhone SE 3, Apple will drop the price of the iPhone SE 2020. The existing iPhone model is currently available under Rs 30,000, which is expected to drop under Rs 20,000 after the iPhone SE 3 launch.

According a report from IANS, the 2022 iPhone SE will reportedly feature 3GB memory, while the 2023 iPhone SE will have more significant changes, including a larger display and 4GB memory. Display analyst Ross Young previously said that Apple is working on a new 4.7 inch iPhone SE with 5G connectivity for launch in 2022, followed by a successor iPhone SE model with a 5.7 inch to 6.1 inch LCD display in 2024.

Young originally said that the larger iPhone SE model was scheduled for 2023 but was pushed back to 2024, however, Kuo said he believes that it is still on the cards for 2023. The 2022 iPhone SE is expected to retain the design and 4.7 inch display of the current model and add 5G connectivity, but it is not clear if it will contain either the A14 or A15 chip.
