The third-generation iPhone SE has the same dimensions and form factor as the second-generation iPhone SE. The iPhone SE has a similar design to the iPhone 8 and similar internal hardware components to the iPhone 13 series, including the A15 Bionic system-on-chip[10] and 5G connectivity.
The third-generation iPhone SE is the last iPhone to feature 4 GB of RAM, as well as 64 GB of internal storage.
History[edit]
The third-generation iPhone SE was announced as part of an Apple Event on March 8, 2022.[7][11]
Specifications[edit]
Hardware[edit]
The iPhone SE incorporates the Apple A15 Bionic (5 nm) architecture system on a chip (SoC), with an integrated motion coprocessor and fifth-generation neural engine. It is available in three internal storage configurations: 64 GB, 128 GB, and 256 GB.[3] It has 4 GB of RAM, an increase over the second-generation model's 3 GB of RAM.[13] The third-generation iPhone SE has the same IP67 rating for dust and water resistance as its predecessor.[3] The phone lacks the ultra-wideband features enabled by the U1 chip found in the iPhone 13 and 13 Pro. Despite the phone's smaller size, which may lead to increased thermal throttling, the SE's A15 SoC runs at the same peak CPU frequencies as the iPhone 13. Like its predecessor, the third-generation iPhone SE does not feature a standard 3.5 mm stereo headphone jack and keeps a home button.
