Some people may be mad, but as Christopher said, it's up to everybody to do their research. There will also be a lot of users who are not super technical users who couldn't care less if a new smaller form factor phone were released. They may hear about it in a news article from a major news outlet, but the fact is that a large majority of people are users who do not necessarily follow each Apple Event. Anyhow, when it comes down to it Apple couldn't care less if they made 10% of their user base mad, after all, they did this with the iPad a few years ago. Also, for whatever it's worth, I don't think they are going to release a new 4 inch phone in September, at this point there would be many more rumours and some of which from sources who in the past have been very credible and there are no such rumours.

It waited several months before doing so. And, when the phone was released, there was a major back up, so people waited weeks before getting their phones. That is fairly typical for Apple phone releases, and they admitted that they underestimated the demand for this particular phone. So, you have a case where people just purchased phone maybe in June or July, and here we are in September almost, traditional iPhone release time. If Apple releases a new SE now in sync with all of its other phone releases, I think the folks who purchased their phones recently are going to be upset. You know, Apple, why didn't you release this phone last fall with all of the others? Why did you wait over half a year, then release the phone, and right on top of it, release another one? That's why I figure people would not be happy.
