Rumors of a new iPhone SE have been… confused to say the least. I think that’s because the iPhone SE itself confused some people.

Over the course of the last 2 years, we’ve heard rumors from the Taiwan trades that Apple was targeting 2018 for the next SE-like device. Obviously, that didn’t pan out.

Supposed leaks from case-makers suggested everything from another internal update to the existing SE, to an iPhone X-style design, notch and all.

Then, from financial analyst reports, that this never announced iPhone was never going to be announced. That it had died on the product vine.

Now, supply-chain exfiltrator extraordinaire, Kuo Ming-Chi is back, back again, with a new report, tell your friends, that a next generation iPhone SE is primed for the first quarter of 2020.

And, that’s causing some continued confusion. So, let’s see if we can’t clear that all up.
