Apple's 2022 iPhone SE adds 5G, same chip as iPhone 13

Ian Carlos Campbell March 8, 2022 Tech The new budget phone has 5G support, a new A15 chip, the same old design, and it's coming out March 18. Apple

The iPhone SE, like many expected, looks a lot like an iPhone 8 . While Apple didn’t totally overhaul the design, it did meaningfully update the specs of the iPhone SE for 2022. Apple

5G The new SE has support for sub 6 GHz and mmWave 5G. Apple

A15 The SE now uses the same chip that showed up in the iPhone 13. Apple

Here are the rest of the new SE’s specs:

4.7-inch LCD Retina display IP67 splash, water, and dust resistance 12MP rear camera, 7MP selfie camera Touch ID home button Apple

Apple’s updates don’t come without a cost. The company is bumping the SE’s already high $399 price to $429. Not a budget phone price, but I guess 5G modems aren’t cheap. Apple
