New regulatory filings discovered by Consomac (via 9to5Mac) suggest that several new iPhone models may be launching in the near future. References to new iPhone models were found yesterday in the Eurasian Economic Commission database, which has a solid reputation for accuracy in revealing products about a month before they ship, suggesting that new models could appear as early as May or June. Although the filing provides few useful details, logic suggests that this will be a smaller update, since Apple’s flagship iPhones are not expected to debut until the fall. While some reports have suggested it could be a slightly tweaked iPhone X, it seems much more likely that this would be the “iPhone SE 2” that we’ve been seeing sporadic rumours about over the past few months. More recent reports on an updated iPhone SE, however, have suggested that Apple may not have the resources for a major update, and that the most we’re likely to see is minor improvements such as a faster processor and lower price.
