DSCC analyst Ross Young is back with another report about the upcoming
iPhone SE, expected to launch in a few months from now. He also talks about
a larger
model coming next year.
In a
tweet,
Ross Young says the next iPhone will be called iPhone SE+ 5G, as it will
feature for the first time in this line 5G support. He also expects the
phone
to have a 4.7-inch display.
This is the first time we have heard about a possible name for the next
iPhone SE, as Apple only calls the current model the second generation. Not
only
that, but it would be weird if the company calls a 4.7-inch iPhone Plus.
Using the terminology 5G would also be a weird choice, as the last time
the
company did that was with the iPhone 3G, almost 15 years ago.
Ross Young also talks about another iPhone SE that was previously rumored to
launch in 2024. According to the analyst, it would be unveiled in 2023 and
would feature a 5.7-inch display, also a first for an iPhone.
Previous Plus models had a 5.5-inch display with the iPhone 6 Plus. Then,
Apple ditched Plus for Max, bringing screens with up to 6.7 inches with
the iPhone 12 Pro Max.
As 9to5Macs Ben Lovejoy wrote back in October
when Young tweeted that Apple would call the 2022 iPhone SE Plus, its
unlikely that the company would give this name for the new iPhone SE.

While a display expert would have good visibility into the display supply
chain, its less likely they would have any insight into planned product
names.
That said, not all of Apples product names are consistent or logical, and
the company has since switched to Max branding for larger-screened iPhones,
so the possibility cant be entirely dismissed.

As of now, analysts believe the next iPhone SE will feature a 4.7-inch
display, the A15 Bionic chip, improved rear sensor, and 5G support. Rumors
about
an upcoming model are still spare, but Kuo and Ross say Apple is readying a
larger version.
