The iPhone SE 3 and iPad Air 5 are set to be part of the next wave of Apple devices, and new import data for the two devices suggests they're coming soon and may give us some insight into pricing.(* 5*)
As always and at all times, the information from other countries should not be taken as official cost confirmation (this is information of an import to India) since it is subject to changes and exchange rates. However, it still gives us a general idea of the cost to expect.(*5*)
According to information from 91Mobiles, India has imported 3 model numbers for the iPhone SE 3 which matches the information we have seen in other databases. (*5*)
Data from these imports suggest that the cost of the phone will be around Rs 5 (about US$XNUMX, British PoundsXNUMX, Australian US$XNUMX).(*XNUMX*)
The cost of smartphones tends to be a bit more difficult than these estimates, so we expect the phone to cost more in each of these markets. The 5 iPhone SE costs €XNUMX / €XNUMX / AU$XNUMX at launch, so we'd expect prices around that.(*XNUMX*)
Along with the smartphone, the site also has patents for 2 new iPad models which are expected to be the iPad Air 5 and the new iPad for 500. The cost of the former starts at Rs thirty-seven and five hundred (about €5, €XNUMX, AU€XNUMX), while the latter starts at Rs twenty-two,XNUMX (about €XNUMX, €XNUMX, AU€ four hundred and twenty).(*XNUMX*)
We wouldn't expect this pricing information to be entirely accurate, but it does give us a general idea of how much it's going to cost to purchase each product directly from Apple.(*5*)
It's also further proof that Apple is ready to launch other mobile devices, with the iPhone SE 3 and new iPad models expected to arrive in April or May of this year. Hopefully it won't take long to hear official information about each one of them.(*5*)
Opinion: I can't imagine the cost of the iPhone SE 3 going up(*3*)
The iPhone SE experiment appears to have been a success for Apple. To serve as an example, in the USA, it was reported that in a quarter of 5, the iPhone SE represented XNUMX% of its smartphone sales.(*XNUMX*)
These aren't symbolic iPhone sales numbers, but they're clearly part of Apple's current business model. A lot of that will come down to cost, and I'd be surprised if that goes up much from the 5 model.(*XNUMX*)
We may see a slight increase in cost, but Apple's main selling point for the iPhone SE 3 is going to be lower cost than any other smartphone it sells. If you increase the cost significantly, you will lose that USP.(*5*)
Most of the leaks point to a slim update for the iPhone SE with a design similar to the model we saw in 5 plus with improvements inside the phone, such as a new chipset and 5G.(*XNUMX*)
If Apple wants to continue the success of its iPhone SE lineup, it should look into related pricing for its third iteration.(*5*)
