In his latest “Power On” newsletter, Bloomberg’s Mark Gurman says iPhone SE inventory is “quickly” dwindling at a “large number” of Apple Store locations in the U.S.
He says this likely indicates that a new version is coming soon. The current iPhone SE is still available to order on Apple’s online store.
The upcoming update of the iPhone SE will see the device renamed the iPhone 16E, according to the leaker known as Majin Bu. The Sellers Research Group (that’s me) is skeptical.
What’s more, the next generation iPhone SE (or iPhone 16E, as some claim it will be dubbed) will, per the rumor mill, sport:
° The first Apple-designed 5G modem;
° The same 1170 x 2532 display resolution as the 6.1-inch iPhone 14;
° Flat sides and an OLED display with a notch at the top;
° The same 48MP wide camera and 12MP front camera as the iPhone 15 and 15 Plus (but no ultra-wide or telephoto lenses);
° FaceID added, replacing the Home button with TouchID on the current model.
