Apple Inc. has been receiving a lot of “bricking” news recently. Apple desperately needs new product lines to rekindle its multiyear success, during which its stock soared to new highs and it became the most valuable publicly traded company in the world.
It will also include a Smart Connector and support for Apple-branded accessories such as the latest Smart Keyboards and Apple Pencil, which were revealed at the launch of the iPad Pro previous year. Even if you are, your iPhone would be little more than an iPod since the wireless technologies we rely on to get on the Internet or even make phone calls wouldn’t exist yet.
Usually, Apple releases a new iPhone model a week or two after unveiling it at an event where it also starts taking pre-orders.
In fact, the devices could be available in the UAE as soon as within three days of their global launch, rumoured to be on March 15.
The iPhone 5se is said to have a 4-inch display – the same size as the iPhone 5s – which still proves to be a popular screen size among iPhone owners. Both of the new devices will be featuring new special specifications that are not available in Apple’s iPhone 6s.
Although there are no confirmation from Apple, the rumor says that the iPhone 5se release date will come to Apple Stores and online on the same day.

It will have an 8-megapixel rear camera, 1.2-megapixel front camera, NFC for Apple Pay, A8 processor and improved connectivity. On the software side, Live Photos (originally introduced on the iPhone 6s) and always-on Siri functionality will likely be included while 3D Touch will remain a feature exclusive to the flagship iPhone 6s. The lineup will include new Sports Band colors, a Space Black Milanese Loop spotted last month on the Czech version of the Apple Store website, and NATO-style nylon bands.
