The invites are out and the rumours are in. Apple's March 21st event has been confirmed

with the title Let Us Loop You In. So with that in mind, let us loop you in

The new device will most likely be called the iPhone SE, with SE standing for Special
0:18
Edition. You may have heard some rumours calling the device the 6C, which made sense because
0:23
it's expected to be cheap just as the 2013 iPhone 5C was. There was also a period of
0:28
time where the device was referred to as the iPhone 5 SE, however last month it was
0:33
reported that Apple either dropped the 5 from the title or it was just always going to be
0:37
called the SE. But what will it look like? Pretty much exactly
0:42
like the iPhone 5S, only the edges of the glass display will be curved like on the iPhone
0:47
6 and 6S, making it feel a little bit slimmer in your hand. Case designs that have leaked
0:52
show the power button will still be on the top, with the mute switch and volume knobs
0:56
on the side, just like the 5S. Colour options will reportedly include gold, silver, space
1:01
grey and rose gold, and are said to pack a 4-inch retina display. It's unclear whether
1:06
the rear casing will be exactly the same as the 5S, or if it will look more like the 6
1:11
body that makes it look like one piece of metal. We have seen zero leaked parts for
1:15
the rear case, so Apple could still pull out a few surprises. The iPhone SE will pack the
1:20
same A9 processor found in the 6S and 6S Plus. It's unclear how much RAM the new iPhone
1:26
will contain, probably somewhere between 2 and 1GB. Though we're guessing at the 1GB
1:32
of RAM as Apple is known to skimp on memory where it's not necessary. Having the A9
1:36
processor should mean the iPhone SE should also include A-series support. When it comes to storage, don't expect a lot. The baseline model will probably come
1:45
with 16GB. Apple will likely offer a 64GB model too, which is better than the 16 and
1:50
32GB options the iPhone 5C debuted with. But hoping for a 128GB model is most likely futile
1:58
For many iPhone owners, the smartphone is their only camera, and Apple is embracing
2:02
this now more than ever. So it's supposedly putting in one of the best cameras ever made
2:07
in the iPhone SE. The sensor will likely be the same 12MP sensor found in the iPhone 6
2:13
Instead of the slightly better 12MP sensor in the 6S. It probably won't include 4K video
2:19
but should get live photos and slow motion shooting at 240fps. The front facing camera
2:24
will come in at 8MP just like the 6 and 6S. Apple Pay should be included on the iPhone
2:30
SE, but there are no signs of 3D touch. So what about the price? When I said cheap, it's
2:36
going to be Apple cheap. So it's still going to be way more expensive than most budget
2:40
Android smartphones. The starting price for the SE is probably going to start between
2:44
$399 and $499. Pre-orders may be available immediately after Apple's event on March
2:51
21st or within a few days after. iPhone SE units could arrive at Apple stores as soon
2:56
as Friday March 25th. But make sure to head over to our website on Monday March 21st for
