Don't Wait for a Bigger iPhone SE

As we've noted, at one point it looked like Apple would launch two versions of the iPhone SE 2: The 4.7-inch model that's currently on shelves and a larger model with a 5.5-inch display. Obviously that didn't pan out. And while we've heard rumors about a larger iPhone SE, we may not see one this year.

According to Ming-Chi Kuo, Apple is working on an iPhone SE Plus that will come with a 5.5-inch or 6.1-inch display. This would put its screen size somewhere between the iPhone 8 Plus and iPhone 11.

Kuo now believes the larger iPhone SE model is due out in 2023. Another leaker says this model has been pushed into 2024.

Barclays analysts Blayne Curtis, Thomas O'Malley, and Tim Long have also heard about an iPhone SE with a larger display. iOS 14 code also points to the existence of a larger iPhone SE Plus.

That being said, Nikkei Asia does believe the new iPhone SE model will resemble the iPhone 8 and iPhone 8 Plus.

Leaker @dylandkt says the new iPhone SE will utilize the same design as the model from 2020. 

We've also heard that Apple might keep the 4.7-inch size around. Ross Young claims "the next LCD iPhone SE will remain at 4.7" in 2022." Nikkei also thinks the iPhone SE 3 will keep the 4.7-inch display.

According to a report, the iPhone SE 3 will be the last iPhone with an LCD display. 

Young is also hearing about a 5.7-inch or 6.1-inch version of the iPhone SE that's due out in 2023. He claims it will come with punch hole rather than a notch.

At this point, we'd be surprised if Apple launched a larger iPhone SE in 2022.
