iPhone SE 2020 Unveiled: iPhone 11 Pro's Chipset, 18W Charging, Dual-SIM

Apple's new affordable iPhone model has a relatively boring design, in return, it is equipped with many advanced technologies such as iPhone 11's chipset, dual-SIM, IP67 and more.

After a long wait with a series of rumors, Apple has officially announced the successor to the iPhone SE today. With a starting price of $399 (around Rs. 30,500), the iPhone SE 2020 is the cheapest model in Apple's current lineup, but it is still equipped with many features used on the high-end iPhone 11 series.

iPhone SE 2020: Price & Availability

The iPhone SE 2020 price is as follows:

  • 64GB: $399 (around Rs. 30,500)
  • 128GB: $449 (around Rs. 34,300)
  • 256GB: $549 (around Rs. 42,000)

The phone will be up for pre-orders from 17 April while its official sales will start from 24 April in the US. For now, we have no idea about the iPhone SE 2020 release date in India.

As for the iPhone SE 2020 price in India, it starts at Rs. 42,500 for the base 64GB variant. You can also purchase two other models with 128GB and 256GB of storage, which are respectively priced at Rs. 47,800 and Rs. 58,300. It seems like the iPhone SE 2020 India price increases massively compared to its $399 price tag in the US, which is equivalent to only around Rs. 30,500.

iPhone SE 2020: Specifications & Features

Unexpectedly, the iPhone SE 2020 has the same design as the iPhone 8 as we reported in our previous articles. The front of the device is a thick bezel display with a Touch ID fingerprint sensor mounted on the home button. Its back is made of glass and the frame is made of metal. The only difference between the iPhone SE 2020 and iPhone 8 is the Apple logo placement, which is moved down to the middle, like the iPhone 11.

Its screen has a 4.7-inch size and IPS LCD technology, just like the iPhone 8. Unfortunately, the SE 2020 does not have a "Plus" version, meaning that users who prefer large-screen smartphones will be less interested in this device.

The iPhone SE 2020 also inherits iPhone 8’s water resistance. IP67 certification allows this phone to survive underwater at a depth of 1 meter for 30 minutes. The handset is offered in three color versions: Black, White, and Red.

The most valuable feature of iPhone SE 2020 is performance. With the same Apple A13 Bionic chip as the top-end iPhone 11 and iPhone 11 Pro Max, this new affordable iPhone easily becomes one of the best performance smartphones available today, surpassing many premium Android smartphones.

The phone is equipped with a single camera with 12MP resolution and f / 1.8 aperture. It's impossible to confirm that this new model's camera is the same as the iPhone 11 or iPhone XR, but it should offer the same or better photography experience as the iPhone 8.

An upgrade of the iPhone SE 2020 that many Indian users would be interested in is that this model supports two SIMs, which is said to include one eSIM (electronic SIM) and one physical SIM. In addition, it supports the new and fastest Wi-Fi 6 standard.
