Apple to launch two ‘iPhone SE 2’ models

The Cupertino-based tech giant Apple is reportedly planning to launch two ‘iPhone SE 2’ models in 2020, in different sizes. The upcoming iPhone SE 2 models are expected to feature a 5.5 and a 6.1-inch LCD display, ‘Digitimes’ reported recently.

Apple analyst Ming-Chi Kuo had also suggests there could be another iPhone SE 2 model on the way, dubbed the iPhone SE 2 Plus, but in the first half of 2021. The initial model of the so-called iPhone SE 2 is expected to resemble the iPhone 8, including a Touch ID home button, but with a faster A13



chip and 3GB of RAM.

The iPhone SE 2 models 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 models 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.
