A closeup photo allegedly of the packaging for the Apple's new 4-inch iPhone confirms it will be called the iPhone SE and will come in a 16GB variant. It also confirms that the device will have NFC support.
The new 4-inch iPhone is believed to feature a 12MP camera, an A9 chip, NFC, a similar form factor to the iPhone 5s, and slightly curved glass like the iPhone 6, 802.11ac Wi-Fi, Bluetooth 4.2, Live Photos support, a slightly larger 1642 mAh battery, and storage capacities of 16GB and 64GB. The device is not expected to have support for 3D Touch.
Apple will reportedly unveil the iPhone SE at its press event on March 21st. Please follow iClarified on Twitter, Facebook, or RSS for updates.
Hopefully the new smaller yet still premium iPhone will also be available in 32GB. Had thought maybe iPhone 6se would be a more logical name and successor to the iPhone 5s. Was also expecting a repackaged 5s in a plastic shell called the iPhone 6c available in 8 and 16GB. That pair of releases, a budget conscious plastic shelled iPhone 6c and premium built but 4" iPhone 6se would have made more sense to us and filled the gaps nicely.
If only they came out with the 4" SE at the same time they came out with the iPhome 6 I would have taken the SE because 4' screen is the perfect size for a cell phone and I'm not the only one that says that.
But going back from the 6S with 3D touch is not possible any more, Apple made a big mistake unless they plane on selling this phone in India for a very low price.
