Apple iPhone SE Announcement

The Power and Features of the iPhone SE

At the heart of the iPhone SE is our amazing Apple A9 chip with its embedded M9 motion Coprocessor, which means that it has the same processing performance as the iPhone 6s. This is literally double the speed of the iPhone 5s, and it also has the same incredible graphics performance as the iPhone 6s, which is three times faster than the iPhone 5s. The embedded M9 motion Coprocessor is always on, so it enables all kinds of features like tracking your fitness all day, but it also allows you to use Siri handsfree.

One of the most exciting features of the iPhone SE is its advanced camera system. We've given it our incredible 12-megapixel iSight camera with Focus pixels and True Tone Flash, which means that you can take incredible pictures like this. The camera also has the image signal processor from the A9, which enables all kinds of great features like Panorama pictures up to 63 megapixels, slow-mo video, time-lapse photography, and live photos. You can capture still photos and have them come to life, and our front-facing FaceTime HD camera has a Retina Flash that allows you to take selfies in low light.

The iPhone SE also has great Wireless capabilities, with LTE speeds that are 50% faster than the iPhone 5s and more LTE bands, which means better global roaming. It also has high-speed Wi-Fi, with 802.11 AC, which is three times faster than the iPhone 5s, and supports high-quality Wi-Fi calling as well. The phone also features Touch ID for secure access to your iPhone, and it's also compatible with Apple Pay, allowing you to make easy, secure, and private payments with just a touch of your finger.

The iPhone SE is not only incredibly powerful but also environmentally friendly. It's made from highly recyclable aluminum and glass, and it has other recyclable components and materials as well. The phone is also free from that nasty list of environmentally unfriendly materials that some other phones are made from. This makes the iPhone SE a great choice for anyone who cares about the environment.

The iPhone SE meets our really high environmental standards, and we're proud to say that it's one of the most eco-friendly iPhones ever made. We've launched Apple Pay in many countries already, including China, where the response was absolutely fantastic. Over 3 million cards were added in the first 72 hours alone!

Now that we've talked about all the amazing features and capabilities of the iPhone SE, let's talk about its price. The phone starts at just $399, which makes it our most affordable price ever for a new iPhone model. We also have a higher capacity 64 GB model available for just $499. If you're on a two-year subsidized service contract, you get the iPhone SE for free! And if you're interested in installment plans, the phone starts at just $17 per month without a service contract.

The iPhone SE joins our incredible lineup of iPhones with the iPhone 6, 6 Plus, 6s, and 6s Plus. We'll be taking orders for the iPhone SE this Thursday, March 24th, and it will be available next week on March 31st.
