iPhone 9 is likely the name of Apple’s iPhone SE successor
The device is expected a faster A13 Bionic chip, 3GB of RAM and could start selling at $399
Apple's upcoming 4.7-inch iPhone is likely to be called the iPhone 9 rather iPhone SE 2, according to a brand new report from Japanese weblog Macotakara.
The device is expected a faster A13 Bionic chip, 3GB of RAM and could start selling at $399, reports Gadgets.
According to Apple analyst Ming-Chi Kuo, iPhone SE 2 is scheduled to go into mass production in January 2020 and will be launched at the end of March.
The iPhone SE 2 will use a 10-layer Substrate-like PCB (SLP) for its motherboard, the same technology used by the iPhone 11's version.
This will benefit multiple iPhone suppliers, including Pending Holdings, Xinxing, and AT&S, even though the SLP will be a less expensive component than the one used in the iPhone 11 series of devices.
The iPhone SE 2 will not have the 3D Touch feature, removed from the iPhone 11 by the company. Also, it will use a Touch ID fingerprint reader, not Face ID.
The phone will have three colour options such as silver, space grey and red.
Earlier Kuo had said, Apple was preparing to release a new iPad Pro, a new MacBook and an augmented reality (AR) headset by the first half of 2020.
