Last-Minute 5G iPhone SE Details Leaked By Reliable Analyst Ming-Chi KuoRenowned Apple analyst
Ming-Chi Kuo has shared six "predictions" for the third-generation
iPhone SE, providing several new insights into details about the device.
Repeating information from
previous rumors, Kuo claims that the third-generation ‌iPhone SE‌ will feature the
same design as the current model, the
A15 Bionic chip, and
5G connectivity, but there are several new details.
<div class="center-wrap"><blockquote class="twitter-tweet"><p lang="en" dir="ltr">Some predictions for the coming new iPhone SE:
1. Mass production in Mar'22.
2. Estimated shipments of 25-30 mn units in 2022.
3. Storage: 64/128/256GB.
4. A15 & 5G support (mmW & Sub-6 GHz).
5. Casing: white, black, and red.
6. Similar form factor design to current SE.</p>— 郭明錤 (Ming-Chi Kuo) (@mingchikuo)

Kuo expects the ‌iPhone SE‌ to add a new 256GB storage option in addition to the existing 64GB and 128GB options, and clarifies that the ‌iPhone SE‌'s 5G capabilities will include both mmWave and Sub-6GHz 5G connectivity, which was not previously known. The mention of the A15 Bionic chip also seems to dispel uncertainty around rumors that suggested the next-generation ‌iPhone SE‌
could get the A14 Bionic instead.
In addition, the tweet confirms that the ‌iPhone SE‌ will continue to feature the same White, Black, and Red color options offered with the current model, with no new colors available. It may also be worth noting that camera upgrades are noticeably absent from Kuo's expectations.
Kuo added that mass production for the new ‌iPhone SE‌ begins this month and that Apple is expecting to ship 25 to 30 million units this year.
‌Ming-Chi Kuo‌ is an analyst for TF International Securities and often reveals
accurate insights into Apple's plans. Kuo normally shares his information in official notes to investors and has never shared information of this kind on Twitter before.
Apple is
widely expected to unveil the third-generation ‌iPhone SE‌ at its
"Peek Performance" event on March 8. The company seemingly
filed new iPhone SE models in regulatory databases in January, indicating that the launch of the device is imminent.
