Apple’s affordable iPhone SE (2020) finally has a sale date in India. Apple had quietly launched the second-generation iPhone SE in mid-April, though India’s coronavirus lockdown meant its availability wasn’t revealed immediately. Even though India still remains under lockdown, the Government has allowed e-commerce platforms to resume full operations, subject to a few conditions now (deliveries allowed in orange and green zones only for now). Taking a cue, Flipkart has revealed that the iPhone SE (2020) will be available on the platform from May 20. It should be available across other sales platforms at around the same time.

iPhone SE (2020) specs and features
The iPhone SE (2020) is literally the iPhone 11 trapped inside the body of an iPhone 8. It has the same glass and metal design with a Touch ID physical fingerprint scanner and the same 4.7-inch LCD display as the iPhone 8 while under the hood it has Apple’s A13 Bionic processor seen inside the iPhone 11. The iPhone SE (2020) also has the same 12MP main camera with OIS as the iPhone 11.
Expandable storage is not an option, like all iPhones. Like the iPhone 8, the iPhone SE (2020) doesn’t have a headphone jack either. It still charges via Apple’s proprietary Lightning connector. The iPhone SE (2020) supports 18W fast charging as well as wireless charging. The iPhone SE (2020) is also IP67-certified for water and dust resistance.
