New Low-Cost 'iPhone SE' Could Launch as Soon as Tomorrow

With all that's been going on in the world lately, it would take some serious cojones to release a new phone, seeing as people are losing their jobs left, right and center....ending up in the hospital or worse. We are in the midst of the worst global catastrophe of our lifetimes, I think launching a new iPhone at this current time would be seen as poor taste.

Apple may be better served to hold off for a least a couple more months (July, perhaps?).

Anyone remember how fast the SE felt on launch year, because it was running the 6S chipset at a lower resolution, and in doing so felt even more fluid than the flagships?

A13 on 750P? Holy overkill batman! Though at that point, an interim resolution bump even to 900p or so would be appreciated, as the SoC is well overkill at that point and the GPU powers higher resolutions with still stellar bettery life.

Out of all the names they could have picked, they picked the One that makes the least sense

it’s gonna confuse a lot of people who have a current iPhone SE

if you’re gonna use that name then just call it the SE 2

iPhone 9 makes A lot more sense than “iPhone SE (2020)”

It's no different than the iPad (2017), iPad (2018), and iPad (2019).

The old iPhone SE is no longer available for sale and it's a 4 year old product. Most consumers shouldn't be confused.

People still need to communicate and replace older phones. Hat-tip to Apple for having a new option available.

Friday would be weird.
Who knows though.

We live in weird times. If they announced tomorrow morning, something even stranger would come along within an hour.

I wouldn’t think such a small iPhone would even be popular as now days everyone has gotten used to bigger phones, a SE screen is so small

Your definitions of “everyone” and “small” are not universal.

The longer Apple waits, the browner the banana.

Apple has already sunk NRE costs into the device. Supplier contracts have been signed. Delaying it to July wouldn't help.
