The new iPhone SE for 2022 is presently available to pre-order and assuming you’re experiencing difficulty picking a plan, we’re here to help. We have every new iPhone SE plan below, including options from Telstra, Optus, and Vodafone.
After much speculation, Apple has at long last revealed the new iPhone SE 2022 – a budget-focused device in the brand’s smartphone range. After a short presentation at Apple’s March event, we currently realize that iPhone SE 2022 pre-orders are going live on March 12 at 12 am AEDT.
This new gadget is basically a ‘refresh’ rather than an evolution of the ever-popular iPhone SE formula, with the 2020 model currently suspended and the 2022 edition having its spot. On the off chance that you’re looking to pre-order, we’re giving you a breakdown of this new model, covering cost, specs, where to get it, and whether we think this new gadget is worth the upgrade.
Pre-orders for the iPhone SE 2022 are live now, beginning from Saturday, March 12 at 12 am AEDT. The gadget is available to pre-order from Telstra, Optus, and Vodafone, as well as from retailers like Apple and JB Hi-Fi. The following, we’re going through every telco’s plans on the new iPhone SE. For every other person, the iPhone SE 2022 becomes available on March 18.
Telstra is obviously the most costly option to get an iPhone SE on a plan, yet running a few deals could make it a more attractive option.
You’ll score a 12-month subscription to Disney+, and assuming you pick Telstra’s $115 plan with 180GB, you’ll get a $50 credit every month for your first year, representing a saving of $600. Since Telstra plans are contract-free, you can drop down to a more affordable tier after the discount expires for the rest of your handset repayment term.
| S (40GB)* | M (80GB) | L (120GB) | XL (180GB)^ | |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 64GB | AU$85p/m | AU$95p/m | AU$115p/m | AU$95p/m |
| 128GB | AU$88.29p/m | AU$98.29p/m | AU$118.29p/m | AU$98.29p/m |
| 256GB | AU$94.54p/m | AU$104.54p/m | AU$124.54p/m | AU$104.54p/m |
Similarly, as with Telstra, Optus is doing a discount on its biggest plan. Assuming you pick its 500GB Optus Plus plan to go with your new iPhone SE, you’ll save $50 per month on the plan your first year. You’ll return to following through on the full plan cost after the year is up, yet since Optus plans are contract-free, you can drop down to a more affordable level when your discount runs out.
| S (20GB) | M (80GB) | L (200GB) | XL (240GB) | Plus (500GB)* | |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 64GB | AU$74.94p/m | AU$84.94p/m | AU$94.94p/m | AU$114.94p/m | AU$94.94p/m |
| 128GB | AU$78.27p/m | AU$88.27p/m | AU$98.27p/m | AU$118.27p/m | AU$98.27p/m |
| 256GB | AU$85.35p/m | AU$95.35p/m | AU$105.35p/m | AU$125.35p/m | AU$105.35p/m |
Vodafone is effectively your least expensive option for getting an iPhone SE on a plan, but at the same time, it’s running deals on some of its more costly options. You can right now save $5 per month on two of its Super and Super+ plans, which incorporate 200GB and 300GB of data, respectively. Alternatively, you can save $20 per month on Vodafone’s Ultra plan which truly incorporates unlimited data. The only catch is you’re limited to 30GB of hotspot data per month. Vodafone’s discounts last for the life of your plan.
| Lite (40GB) | Lite+ (80GB) | Super (200GB) | Super+ (300GB) | Unlimited | |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 64GB | AU$69.95p/m | AU$74.95p/m | AU$79.95p/m | AU$89.95p/m | AU$94.95p/m |
| 128GB | AU$73.29p/m | AU$78.29 | AU$83.29p/m | AU$93.29p/m | AU$98.29p/m |
| 256GB | AU$80.37p/m | AU$85.37p/m | AU$90.37p/m | AU$100.37p/m | AU$105.37p/m |
The iPhone SE will cost AU$719 for the 64GB model, which is really AU$30 less expensive than the iPhone SE (2020) was at launch. At the cost, you’ll get an iPhone with a gigantic leap in power over the past model. This basic cost doesn’t disrupt the new iPhone SE 2022’s place as the least expensive gadget in Apple’s current smartphone range either – it’s less expensive than the iPhone 12 mini (from AU$999) and the iPhone 13 mini (from AU$1,199).
The iPhone SE 2022 will be launching in black, white, or red color options, which are essentially indistinguishable from the past generation’s colour choices. We had trusted the new iPhone SE would launch in a few new shades, but for now, there’s nothing new on offer.
The above retailers are the main places to pre-order the iPhone SE 2022 in Australia. Telstra, Optus, and Vodafone are the place where to go assuming you want the new iPhone SE on a plan, while you’ll have the option to purchase the gadget outright from Apple, JB Hi-Fi, or Telstra. Assuming you purchase the phone outright, consider matching it with one of our best SIM-only plan suggestions.
While we couldn’t yet say whether retailers will offer promotions on the new iPhone SE, almost certainly, the three significant telcos will have trade-in deals. We definitely realize that Apple will do this – you can save between AU$120-AU$890 when you trade in an iPhone 8 or newer.
We speculate that Telstra, Optus, and Vodafone will offer comparable rebates, however, besides this, we’re not expecting any outright device discounts, mobile plan deals, or added freebies when you pre-order the iPhone SE 2022.
The headline feature of the new iPhone SE 2022 is without a doubt its A15 Bionic chip, which is the same processor that powers the high-end iPhone 13. To put such a strong chipset into a mid-range gadget makes this affordable iPhone a challenger to the most premium Android phones out there, at least in terms of power.
With Apple’s A15 Bionic silicon inside, the new iPhone SE will want to more readily deal with demanding tasks such as photography and gaming, as well as unlocking convenient highlights, for example, live messages in the camera application and more camera wizardry.
Apple additionally claims that pairing this new chip with iOS 15 will enable the iPhone SE 2022 to be more battery proficient than past generations. It’s likewise the first time Apple’s budget iPhone has included 5G, which helps future-proof the gadget and update it with its Android competition.
The iPhone SE 2022 has a similar design as the old iPhone SE 2020, and keeping in mind that Apple is referring to it as “an iconic design,” we would have jumped at the chance to have seen the phone totally patched up.
A look’s been around in some form since the iPhone 8, and that implies you’ll get huge, thick bezels and a somewhat small 4.7-inch display, lagging behind the competition with regards to screen real estate.
If you prefer smaller gadgets, or you’re basically searching for a powerful phone on a budget, the new iPhone SE 2022 is without a doubt a convincing decision. While aesthetically dated, it’s easily the most remarkable (and feature-packed) gadget in its cost range. For the trade-off of a smaller screen and a weaker camera, you’re basically getting a pocket-sized iPhone 13 for less.
It’s likewise probable we’ll see a few introductory offers on March 12 that could see you paying less than the full retail price, especially assuming you have got an older device prepared to trade-in. With Apple offering a maximum trade-in value of AU$890, you might possibly take care of the cost of the entire phone, considering costs start at AU$719.
