“Apple’s newest iPhone is believed to be coming at an event March 21,” Amanda Kooser reports for CNET. “That means the usual flurry of rumors surrounding the updated smartphone is turning into a full-blown blizzard of speculation, hints and leaks.”
“A video published Monday purports to show the new iPhone SE in the wild in China,” Kooser reports. “The iPhone SE, if that’s what it ends up being called, is rumored to be a smaller phone with a 4-inch screen designed to replace the iPhone 5S for people who don’t want a plus-sized model.”
“The video comes from a YouTube user by the name of Nick Beeep. Beeep.co is an under-construction crowdtesting site for products. Nick Xu is the founder. Xu visited a vendor at a market in Huaqiangbei Shenzhen in China, an area known as the ‘Silicon Valley of Hardware,'” Kooser reports. “Xu told CNET he heard about the iPhone’s presence at the market and asked to shoot a video of it. The sellers didn’t agree at first, but later changed their minds and allowed the filming. As with any leak, we have to temper the excitement with some caution. It’s possible the phone is a knock-off rather than the real deal.”
