Apple Unveils iPhone SE, 9.7-inch iPad Pro

Mar 23, 2016, 15:00

Featuring the same aluminium design as the iPhone 6s, the device comes in four metallic finishes, including rose gold.

That's smaller that the iPhone 6 series, which boasts screens ranging between 4.7 inches and 5.5 inches. Apple glossed over the details of the tablet, but essentially they made it sound like it was just a smaller version of the 12.9-inch model. Apple has announced the creation of the iPhone SE. "The result is the most lovely and powerful phone with a four-inch display in the world", said Philip Schiller, Apple's senior vice president of Worldwide Marketing.

The new phone is powered by the latest 64-bit A9 chip and M9 co-processor for the improved 12-megapixel i-Sight rear camera, similar to the one in an iPhone 6S. One size does not fit all, though, and some still feel that there is a value in going back to or keeping around a smaller phone.

He also said that he was eager to visit Nepal after he served with the Gurkhas - during his 2007 tour in Afghanistan. Nepal abolished its centuries-old monarchy in 2008 and Harry is the first British royal to visit Nepal since then.

Both the devices have the Live Photos, Touch ID, NFC and Hey Siri, but there are features missing in the iPhone SE against Apple's flagship iPhone 6S.

Apple announced the news at an event last night and also launched a range of new straps.

The new IOS version is compatible with the iPad 2 and later versions, iPhone 4s and later, iPad mini or later, Ipad Pro and 5th generation iPod touch or later.

Earlier rumored to release as the iPad Air 3, the iPad Pro 9.7 comes out into the markets as a major force. It's incredibly fast, extremely portable and completely natural to use with your fingers, Apple Pencil and Smart Keyboard.

Apple VP Greg Joswiak introduced the device, noting that there was great demand for a smaller iPhone. For the new iPad Pro, the base price for a 32 GB model is much higher at $599, taking into account all the better features and specifications it has over the iPad Air 2. Pre-orders for the new iPhone will start March 24. The device's camera also includes notable improvements from Apple's last 4-inch offering.
