Today Apple finally pulled the wraps from the 2020 iPhone SE. Apple has also stopped selling iPhone 8 and iPhone 8 Plus.
The Apple iPhone 8 and iPhone 8 Plus were launched in 2018. Both the devices arrived with massive bezels and feature the Touch ID. However, the newly launched 2020 iPhone SE and the iPhone 8 come with a similar set of features including a 4.7-inch display and a Touch ID home button. The biggest difference between the iPhone 8 and the 2020 iPhone SE is the A13 Bionic chip on the latter.
Interestingly the new iPhone SE is priced at $399 while the two-year-old iPhone 8 also sells at a nearly identical price point. In other words, Apple seems to have discontinued the iPhone 8 because it is launched two years ago and features overlap with the newly launched iPhone SE. If you are still interested in buying the iPhone 8 or the iPhone 8 Plus Amazon is offering some great deals.
The 2020 Apple iPhone SE comes with a 4.7-inch Retina HD display, IP67 rating, A13 Bionic chip, Touch ID, Wireless charging, 64GB/128GB/256GB storage options, 12MP primary rear camera, 7MP front-facing camera, WiFi 6 and Gigabit LTE.

Furthermore, the 2020 iPhone SE is prices start at $399.
Apple’s iPhone lineup now consists of iPhone 11, iPhone 11 Pro, iPhone 11 Pro Max, iPhone XR, and 2020 iPhone SE. All said and done, the 2020 iPhone SE offers a bang for the buck. At $399 you get an iPhone powered by A13 Bionic chip which is the same one that powers iPhone 11 series. Despite a single rear camera, the 2020 iPhone SE offers Portrait mode in the camera app. This mode also works for the front camera.
