In a live streamed Keynote on Tuesday, March 8, Apple announced a third-generation iPhone SE model. The smaller (and lower cost) iPhone model has long been a fan favorite, and the tech giant is now updating it to connect with 5G networks.

Introduced in 2016, the iPhone SE was last updated in 2020. During the event, Apple CEO Tim Cook said that the SE was an ideal model for iPhone users who wanted a smaller device, as well as people who are ready to convert to the Apple suite of products.

iPhone SE Features

The iPhone SE has always been the model without the fancy features (or fancy price tag to match). The big update is that now, the SE will be compatible with 5G networks, giving you faster connections and lower lag on your downloads.

The phone also upgrades its processing chip, from A13 to A15 Bionic, which is more efficient. This allows for not just lower lags in loading your favorite apps, but also an improved camera experience, with reduced noise in low light.

iPhone SE Colors

Like its second-gen predecessor, the 2022 iPhone SE will come in black, white, and Product(RED). The glass is the same as that of the iPhone 13, making it more water- and dust-resistant.
