Analyst does not believe in the success of the iPhone 5 SE

The iPhone 5 se, optionally iPhone 6c, apparently is in the starting blocks. But a well-known Apple analyst does not believe in the success of smartphones. In a new report, the expert continues his sales forecasts down rapidly.

That the iPhone 5SE comes, it is hardly a doubt. The success of the 4-inch smartphones, however, there are major doubts. The well-known Apple analyst Ming-Chi Kuo of KGI Securities has no hope that the iPhone 5SE is a great success, says 9to5Mac. Even the well-awaited iPad Air 3 will not boost its financial results from Apple positively. Only the release of new MacBooks looks Kuo positive counter voted.

iPhone 5SE no innovation: Expert adjusts forecast
Why the known analyst is not excited about the iPhone 5SE he explains as follows: The 4-inch device is not innovation - neither in terms of design yet at the expected specs. Especially against the background of a possible discount of the iPhone 5s therefore lowers its Kuo predicted sales figures. He expects for the iPhone 5SE sale 2016 no longer to paragraph 18 to 20 million units. The new forecast lies rather only at only 10 to 12 million units. The forecast was not already euphoric therefore massively reduced.

Release of iPhone 5SE in March or April
The presentation of the iPhone 5SE is expected in March, the release could take place a short time later. At the same event Apple is also likely the iPad Air 3 out of the hat, for which market observers Kuo also sees no huge sales success. By its estimation, Kuo is the way in good company: Even economist Gene Munster precludes a sales success of a 4-inch iPhone. Just this weekend, the mini iPhone showed in another photo-Leak.
