On the morning of April 15th, Apple announced the second-generation iPhone SE in a press release. The new SE looks almost identical to the iPhone 8 but has updated internals, including the new A13 Bionic processor found in the newer iPhone 11-series phones. Starting at $399, the iPhone SE comes in red, black, and white.

This phone is not to be confused with the original, smaller iPhone SE, released in 2016.

You can identify the second generation of the iPhone SE (2020) by finding one of the model numbers either on the inner edge of the SIM card tray or within the phone's Settings app:

• A2275
• A2296
• A2298

You can find the model number through the phone's UI by going to the Settings app and navigating to General > About. Tap on the number listed in the Model Number section and it should change to a format that looks like the numbers above.

The iPhone SE 2020 features a 4.7 in (diagonal) glass screen with curved edges, a black bezel, and a home button. The back cover is glass and the edge frame is made from curved aluminum which can be colored grey, silver, or red.

Volume controls can be found on the left edge while the power button and SIM card tray are situated on the right. A single camera "bump" protrudes slightly from the back case.

The iPhone SE 2020 can be differentiated from the iPhone 8 by its back cover. The iPhone SE 2020 (as well as the SE 2022) has a centered Apple logo and lacks the word "iPhone", while the iPhone 8's logo is higher up on the back cover with the word "iPhone" printed lower on the cover.

The iPhone SE 2020 (2nd Gen) and iPhone SE 2022 (3rd Gen) can only be differentiated by the model number printed on the inside of the SIM card slot or contained within the Settings app.
