Although the new iPhone SE is the latest addition to the Apple smart phone family, a question remains in mind that how many will actually purchase the new model in the recent future. Even if the iPhone SE has certain features which are new to the 4 inch series of iPhones, this matter remains a big issue. According to recent polls conducted to find out the market situation for Apple iPhone SE, it has been found out that out of all the users of Apple iPhones, 35 percent of the users use old 4 inch iPhones. The break up is such: · IPhone 5s: 18.85%
· IPhone 5c: 4.98%
· IPhone 5: 7.84%
· IPhone 4S: 3.86%
· IPhone 4: 1.51%
· Older models of the iPhone: 0.03%
In another poll, the result showed that almost 35.32% stated that they are willing to upgrade to the better version of the 4 inch iPhone. Many also stated that they are willing to shift from the bigger sized model to the 4 inch model due to the size issue. Some of the users stated that they were willing to change to the iPhone SE only if the smaller version has the capabilities of processing and functioning like the bigger models of the iPhone.
As per the data above, it is quite extraordinary how many people are actually using the smaller 4 inch version of the iPhone, even when larger versions are available. This gives a very good chance for the iPhone SE to sell as an up gradation from the older 4 inch iPhone sets. The most probable model of the iPhone that can be replaced is the iPhone 5s. Moreover, since the iPhone SE closely resembles the look of the iPhone 5s, one can say that it is really meant to replace the former flagship model of the iPhone 4 inch series.
