Apple is planning to launch a new iPhone, which is supposedly going to be a “cheap” model, in the next few days, The Sun reported.

The “affordable” iPhone will be the third variant of the “Special Edition” (SE) lineup, which is Apple’s cheapest lineup. The first-generation model was launched back in 2016, followed by a second-generation variant in 2020 and now the tech giant is expected to unveil the iPhone SE 3 in the days to come.

While the California-based Apple hasn’t publicly announced the date of release; the tech lovers are anticipating that the company would unveil the new SE 3 during its special event “Peek Performance” to be held on March 8 (Tuesday).

According to the publication, if the company does announce the affordable iPhone on Tuesday as per speculations, the phone would be available for pre-booking on Friday (March 11).

Rumours suggest that the iPhone SE 3 would cost just $299 while the price of the previous model will fall below $199.
