Apple announced the successor to its beloved iPhone SE: the iPhone SE 2. The specs are a mix of what you’ll find in the iPhone 11 Pro, iPhone XR, and the iPhone 8. It has the latest A13 Bionic processor, a Touch ID fingerprint sensor, an overall design that mimics the iPhone 8 (it should even work with most iPhone 8 cases), and a few camera traits that seem to be similar to what Apple’s camera array in the iPhone XR could handle. This phone is smaller than other iPhones that are currently available, and it’s far cheaper at just $399 to start.
Apple usually holds an in-person conference to debut new phones, but given that we’re in the midst of a pandemic, it’s opting to make the buying process more streamlined. Preorders begin online this Friday, April 17th starting at 5AM PT / 8AM ET, and the iPhone SE 2 will be available on Friday, April 24th. Since Apple Stores around the US are closed, your only option at the moment for getting an iPhone SE 2 is ordering it online and having it delivered to you.
