True SE fans want a $399 (or less) iPhone, and many of them would love a bigger screen: 4.7” soon, then giving way to to an even larger screen in a couple years when Apple can manage to do it for $399.Try to tell that to true SE fans who have already showed disapproval of the size increase. 4.7 isn’t 4.0 no matter how you try to spin it
It is also true that fans of 3.5-4.0” iPhones, who loved the 4/4s/5/5s, also loved the SE. But Apple may very well sell more 4.7” $399 “SE2” in it’s first year than they sold during the SE’s lifetime.
And the 5.5” $399 “SE3”, whether it’s released in 2021, 2022 or 2023, will outsell the 2020 “SE2”. Because most people like bigger phones. Even if their budget is limited to around $400.
Apple doesn’t make 17” or 20” iMacs anymore. They don’t make 11” or 12” MacBooks anymore. And they don’t make 3.5” or 4.0” iPhones anymore. Apple doesn’t care if you’re willing to pay $100,000 or $100 million for it—they won’t make or sell you any of those six obsolete screen sizes. They’re history. Literally.
