The 2022 iPhone SE is expected to surpass the 2020 SE in terms of first-year sales, according to a new DigiTimes report (paywall).
For reference, the 2020 iPhone SE racked up 25 million sales in its first year, whereas analysts say the new 5G-enabled SE sales should hit about 30 million in 2022.
The 2020 iPhone SE was titled the ‘affordability king,’ and considering that the 2022 iPhone SE is $20 cheaper than its predecessor, it is sure to rack up high sale volume.
