New iPhone SE Now Available to Pre-Order

The new iPhone SE is now available to pre-order from Apple in the United States and more than 40 other countries and regions. Pricing starts at $399 for 64GB of storage, with 128GB and 256GB options available for $449 and $549 respectively. The first deliveries to customers and in-store availability at select resellers will begin Friday, April 24.

PreOrderFeaturee
The second-generation iPhone SE has a similar design as the iPhone 8, including a 4.7-inch display and a Touch ID home button, but it has a faster A13 Bionic chip. Other features of the device include a single-lens 12-megapixel Wide rear camera with Portrait mode support, wireless charging, IP67-rated water resistance, and Wi-Fi 6.

Given its lower price point, the new iPhone SE lacks some premium features of iPhone 11 Pro models, including an OLED display, stainless steel frame, Face ID, and a triple-lens rear camera. The device also lacks a headphone jack.

The new iPhone SE is available to pre-order on Apple.com and in the Apple Store app in black, white, or (PRODUCT)RED. Customers can get 3% Daily Cash when they buy the device from Apple using the Apple Card.

Order complete (64GB Black) ... good riddance iPhone 6s.

This is going to be a successful product for Apple, especially for people tired of $1,000+ smart phones.

It is not the right SE replacement and as a result, Apple will be losing money for its mistake.
It will be a bestseller and a huge financial success.
Let's talk again in 6-12 months.

Just ordered a 256GB white. This will be my first smart phone. I'm pregnant with anticipation.
Congrats on your upcoming addition. Just a though though... not criticizing per se... more of an observation... Anticipation is a terrible name for a child. It will be picked on mercilessly. :D

Please don't even go there! Its 2020 and we are happy that Apple is finally making 64gb standard. Don't give them ideas its ok to go back to 16gb or this whole forum will eat you alive including myself :)


I know this sounds crazy but I was hoping for a 16gb model for $299.
My work iPhone only needs a few apps.

I've only had one iPhone (the original SE), and there's no way on Earth my finances could stretch to anything from the more expensive range. The new SE is really the only option for me, even though I know there are some compromises.

It's good that Apple offer a way in for folks with limited finances like me. I've ordered mine.
