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.
According to DigiTimes, Apple has readied up 5 million iPhone SE (2022) units for the first quarter, though the Cupertino, California-based company expects the second-quarter sales of the new iPhone to climb up to around 11 million, and about the same for the third quarter as well.
China, which according to the report is the leading consumer of 5G devices is expected to drive up the sales of the iPhone SE (2022), along with increasing demand from the global market which is also expected to bolster sales.
“In 2021, a total of about 280 million 5G mobile phones will be shipped to non-mainland China markets. This figure is expected to surge by more than 60 percent to 450 million units, accounting for 63.5 precent of global shipments,” according to Digitimes.
