It's supposed to come with a newer design regardless of the price. Apple is literally a crap organization that runs by people who just care about getting a paycheck.

lol sorry I fell asleep. Answered above post #225
PS you’re the first one to know the avatar, a true genius who met a tragic end.
People like Apple because they use simple but reliable designs on their products.
Samsung changes their look every generation and all they get are exploding devices.
and look at how much more popular iPhones are compared to any Android phone. Guess why? because of the brand. You can recognize an iPhone a mile away, because of the distinctive look.
Some of you would run a business to bankruptcy with your ideas and it shows.
Not quite. Some time back I asked you if the estate of Bill Evans had given you permission to use the photo
In any case, I listen to his music a few times a week.
In the US, $400 is certainly on the affordable side particularly since most will be paying $15-20/mo on those on 24-30 month installments. For a long time, the going rate for mainstream-level iPhones has been in the $650-750 zone.
Elsewhere around the globe, $100-200 cellphones are pretty popular and for some, spending $400+ on a phone is out of the question.
Have you tried cleaning the socket with something thin and non-conductive like a toothpick? Usually that type of problem is just due to a buildup of pocket lint that prevents the connector from fully seating. Maybe you’ve already tried cleaning it.
What a ridiculous and idiotic statement. Do you have any more perceptive insights to share with us?
Well that’s what you get if you’re going to be changing your devices look every generation, trying to implement newer technology without much trials and selling it for €1000+ only for 2 years worth of software updates.
Why do you think Apple is so successful? because they actually perfect it.
I am completely shocked at people complaining about the rumored price of this phone. They do realize it has the latest chip, right? You are getting a lot of power in an iPhone for potentially $399. This is the best deal since the original SE. Outside of people who really want a good camera, this is easily the best bang for buck iPhone and will handle IOS for 4+ years.
My question to you was "Do you have any more perceptive insights to share with us?"
Your response clearly shows that you do not.
I just noticed that https://www.apple.com/iphone-SE appears to be a real link. It currently leads to Apple's iPhone page. But other combinations, such as https://www.apple.com/iphone-SX or https://www.apple.com/iphone-12 lead to a "Page not found" error.
ok, my response wasn’t perceptive enough apparently, tell me how your response was perceptive to the case I was trying to make in my original comment. Tell me why i’m wrong, why should Apple ditch a good reliable design at a budget price and instead make an all new design not even for a flagship device that’ll bump up the price to at least €700.
Why even get a new iPhone that’s the same style if one’s iPhone is still working less the battery? $100 replaces the battery. Most people can not afford a new device right now even at $400+. I read that 80% of Americans were not prepared for a $500 emergency expense without a credit card. We are looking at 20%+ unemployment and probably the worst times financially since the Great Depression. It’s probably going to be a rough few years for a lot of people, and there’s no shame in that.
So don’t buy a new iPhone if $100 will get you two or three more years out of your current iPhone. Most people that aren’t Apple Fans, or tech reviewers simply don’t have the newest latest greatest iPhone because it’s a waste of money for most. Take care of yourself and your family. Your phone can wait.
Hopefully in 33 minutes we'll find out if we have to wait until the 14th or not....
Maybe the SE will replace my OnePlus 6T...

Possibly a sign, but some old iPhone models do the same and the iPhone SE is also an old iPhone. You can do that with iPhone 6, for instance.
It was never going to be today, based on common sense.
In the country with the largest smartphone market in the world, it’s Saturday.
