What is the significance of “iPhone SE” for Apple?
The iPhone is a high-quality smartphone known for its latest innovative features and unprecedented performance, but it’s also expensive.
That’s why in 2016 Apple announced the iPhone SE as a more affordable model. Users were delighted with the introduction of the low-priced iPhone. And in March 2022, the most advanced 3rd generation “iPhone SE” was released.
Apple has developed many iPhone models even before the launch of the iPhone SE. The first iPhone was launched in 2007 and revolutionized mobile phones. After that, “iPhone 3G” appeared, and as the name suggests, it became possible to connect to a 3G network.
A year later, the iPhone 3GS was launched as a faster model. In fact, Apple claims it’s twice as powerful as its predecessor.
The first major redesign of the iPhone was made in the 2010 iPhone 4. The iPhone 4S, released a year later, introduced Siri.
Next up was the iPhone 5, which has a large 4-inch display. In addition, a new Lightning connector has been added for faster charging.
In 2013, the “iPhone 5S” and “5C” were released. The 5C was also a cheaper model with colorful options. On the other hand, 5S is equipped with Touch ID that uses a fingerprint scanner on the home button, making it easier to unlock the mobile phone.
And with the “iPhone 6” that appeared in 2014, it is even bigger and has higher performance. It is also the first iPhone to be equipped with a “Retina HD display”. At the same time, the larger 5.5-inch display “iPhone 6 Plus” was released.
In 2015, Apple launched the iPhone 6S and 6S Plus. These are equipped with a new A9 chip for faster processing power.
Finally in March 2016, Apple announced the “iPhone SE.” The announcement of the iPhone SE surprised the world. SE is an abbreviation for “Special Edition”.
Previously, the new iPhone had new features, a larger display, improved performance, and was sold at a higher price. However, instead of introducing a lot of new features, the “iPhone SE” was sold at a significantly lower price.
“IPhone SE” has four color variations: space gray, silver, gold, and rose gold. Also, the SE had the same design and size as the “iPhone 5S”.
However, the “iPhone SE” was equipped with a Retina display and was equipped with the latest “A9 chip” at that time. According to Apple, CPU performance is up to 70% and graphics performance is up to 90% higher than the previous model.
“IPhone SE” has become the fastest 4-inch smartphone in the world.
In addition, the SE is also equipped with the latest 12-megapixel rear camera, which can shoot 4K video at 30 frames per second. It also had a 1.2-megapixel front camera, 2GB of RAM, and multiple storage options.
The cheapest model has 16GB of storage and sold for $ 399. The previous model, the iPhone 6S, started at $ 649, so the SE was very affordable.
Many users were very pleased that Apple launched a small 4-inch iPhone at an affordable price. Some users said, “It’s the best smartphone ever made.”
