Although the hype is great now
Today we already wrote that the iPhone SE caused quite a stir in China: in a short period of time, the Jingdong online store recorded more than 340,000 pre-orders.
Does the new iPhone SE seem overrated by the Chinese? The survey shows that many would buy a novelty at a lower price
However, will the iPhone SE really be very popular in China? The Weibo survey hints that this will not happen. To begin with, we note that about 350,000 people participated in the survey, that is, it is very indicative.
60% of respondents said they would not buy a new iPhone SE, about a fifth spoke out for the purchase, the rest said they would think.
There were no other items in the survey, but judging by the comments, many would still be interested in a smartphone if the price were even lower. In China, they are asking for $ 465 for the new generation iPhone SE, that is, not much more than in the US, if you do not forget that $ 400 is the price in the USA without taxes.
Analysts also note the lack of 5G, as a factor playing against the new Apple. Still, fifth-generation networks are developing quite actively in China.
On the other hand, the iPhone SE is the cheapest up-to-date iPhone, and this is, of course, its trump card. Experts say that the iPhone SE will be a great choice for owners of older Apple smartphones, such as the iPhone 6 / 6s.
