While Apple already announced the iPhone SE (2020) India prices some time back, it’s only getting released now on Flipkart. As teased on its mobile app, the e-commerce portal has started taking pre-sale registrations on a dedicated landing page for the affordable Apple phone.
The iPhone SE (2020) is currently the most affordable phone in Apple’s arsenal coming in at Rs 42,500 for the base 64GB model. The 128GB storage variant is priced at Rs. 47,800, and at Rs. 58,300 for the 256GB storage variant. Colour options will include Black, White, and PRODUCT (RED). It also looks like the phone could be exclusive to Flipkart, as can be deemed from the “Flipkart Unique” badge on the corner side of the teaser.
And although pre-sale registrations have started, there is no word on when the sale will start or where else it will be sold.
The iPhone SE (2020) comes years after the original iPhone SE became a hit, and has a few substantial upgrades. For one, it rocks the Apple A13 Bionic chip, the same as the one on the iPhone 11 and Apple calls it the “fastest chip in a smartphone”. That’s quite the power in such a small form-factor. Speaking of which, the iPhone SE (2020) is also the smallest phone in Apple’s inventory right now. It features a 4.7-inch Retina HD (750x1334 pixels) IPS LCD display with giant bezels seen in the iPhone 8 era. There’s also support for True Tone tech and Haptic Touch.
There’s just a single 12MP camera shooter on the back (f/1.8 aperture + OIS) but it supports 4K video recording at 60fps. On the other side, there’s a 7MP selfie shooter. The iPhone SE (2020) runs Apple’s latest iOS 13. Other key features include IP67 ratings, Touch ID, 4G VoLTE, and NFC support.
One can expect the sales date to be announced soon now that registrations have begun.

Latest Tech News
South Korean tech giant Samsung seems ready to open up another flank in its battle against Apple by planning to introduce its own debit card. Samsung is teaming up with US digital lender SoFi to launch a Samsung Pay debit card backed by a cash management account.
While not much details have emerged on the card, it is learnt that it will be backed by a cash management account based on smartphones. It is not clear now as to which are the countries where Samsung Debit Cards will be launched.
Samsung Pay, its eponymous payments service, was initially launched in South Korea in August 2015 before launching in the US a few weeks later. In a blog to mark the five years of Samsung Pay, Sang Ahn, GM of Samsung Pay in North America said the new debit card will launch this summer.
Samsung Pay is also set to introduce a"mobile-first money management platform".
"In 2020, Samsung Pay will be expanding our service from being a rewarding way to shop and pay, to also being a rewarding way to manage money. Over the past year we have been busy developing a mobile-first money management platform. Now more than ever, mobile financial services and money management tools will play an even bigger role in our daily lives while also opening up new possibilities," Ahn said.
Contactless mobile payments the future
Samsung introduced its payments tool in 2015 with MST (Magnetic Secure Transmission) technology as well as Near Field Communication (NFC), a newer technology. NFC works with digital wallets and powers contactless payments. But in some emerging economies, NFC is not supported, making MST important.
Samsung Pay has increasingly grown in popularity, processing more than one billion transactions, almost double compared to 2018. By early 2019, Samsung Pay’s international presence grew to six global regions. By year-end 2019, it expanded into several new countries.
Contactless mobile payments are growing worldwide. Growth is being fueled in part because more retailers are participating. And it is clear that Samsung with its payments card is frontally taking on Apple which launched its credit card last year. Google is also said to be working on its own debit card.
The tech biggies seem ready for a battle royale on the financial front as well.
