I would say yes, Josh, I too have an IPhone 8 and have noticed it's slowing
down and also that it takes longer to charge. For these reasons alone I will
be getting the new SE.

I'm just glad to know that it is coming out, and will still have a
home button. I will probably get it in the 256 gig model. Even
though I just got my iPhone 8 last year, should I ditch my iPhone 8
for this new iPhone?

Everything known about the 2020 'iPhone SE'
By Mike Peterson Friday, April 03, 2020,
The launch of the so-called 2020 "iPhone SE," largely expected to be an
updated iPhone 8-style device, is imminent. Here's what's been discovered
about the subject of rumors for the last three years. The 'iPhone SE' is
expected to have a design basically the same as the iPhone 8. While rumors
about a low-cost iPhone refresh have been circulating for years, it now
appears that Apple will debut the device in early 2020. Here's everything
that's been discovered about the upcoming 4.7-inch iPhone. The 'iPhone SE
2'
at a glance According to the latest rumors and leaks, here are some key
points about the "iPhone SE. The same footprint as the 4.7-inch iPhone 8
footprint Latest-generation A13 chip and 3GB of RAM 64, 128 and 256GB
storage variants Retain a Home button with Touch ID Retail as low as $399
Larger 5.5-inch "iPhone SE Plus" model at some point 'iPhone SE 2' design
Despite the now possibly confirmed "iPhone SE" moniker, the device is more
likely to be a spiritual successor to the iPhone 8 instead of the popular
4-inch form factor. At this point, that 4.7-inch footprint is so likely
that
case makers are already going all-in on the size. In late March, cases for
an affordable iPhone 8-style device began arriving at Best Buy . There may
also be a larger version of the "iPhone SE" available, according to leaked
code strings within iOS 14. That device would be akin to the iPhone 8
Plus,
just with the same updated internals. We're not currently expecting any
major design overhauls like an edge-to-edge display, OLED panel or a
TrueDepth Face ID sensor suite. Like last year's stable of iPads, the
device
will continue to rely on older tech like Touch ID and will sport aging,
bezeled designs. But its price point and internal upgrades, which we'll
get
to below, may make it a popular choice for many consumers. 'iPhone SE 2'
specifications A concept render of what the 2020 "iPhone SE" will look
like.
Courtesy of OnLeaks and iGeeksblog. Apple is definitely going to give the
"iPhone SE" an overhaul in terms of its internal specifications. But users
should expect incremental updates, not major ones. Back in January 2018,
well-connected analyst Ming-Chi Kuo suggested that the "iPhone SE 2" would
sport an A13 processor - the same as the CPU in the iPhone 11 - and 3GB of
RAM. More minor updates could include a new Liquid Crystal Polymer antenna
design, which would give the refreshed device better cellular reception
and
performance. Leaked code in iOS 14 also suggests that the "iPhone SE" will
retain a Touch ID fingerprint sensor, though it may support the so-called
CarKey feature for locking, unlocking and starting compatible vehicles.
The
latest information indicates that the 2020 "iPhone SE" will be available
in
64GB, 128GB and 256GB storage configurations and will launch in white,
black
and PRODUCT(RED) variants. All of this is to say that the new "iPhone SE"
will an entry-level device that will lower the barrier of entry for
Apple's
latest advancements in silicon, making it an attractive choice for users
who
have been holding out on upgrading from older iPhones for reasons of price
or familiarity. iPhone SE availability Rumors about the updated device's
launch date have shifted drastically over the years. In summer 2017,
reports
suggested that a second-generation iPhone SE could debut in early 2018,
for
example. Now, it appears that the 2020 "iPhone SE" will launch sometime in
April 2020. While a credible tipster indicated that Apple would announce
the
device on Friday, April 3, another leaker said that the launch is slated
for
April 15. More confusing are case maker leaks, with at least one
manufacturer potentially tipping an April 5 release date. At this point,
we're comfortable saying that the "iPhone SE" will launch in the very near
future. But an exact day is still up in the air. As far as price, that's
less clear. But a report from February 2020 suggests that it could start
at
$399, presumably for the base 64GB tier. That's about on-par with previous
iterations of the iPhone SE, and cheaper than Apple's current lowest-cost
iPhone, the $449 iPhone 8. 'iPhone SE 2' name An iPhone 8-compatible
screen
protector was updated to reflect 'iPhone SE' compatibility on Apple's
site.
The upcoming 4.7-inch device has been given several monikers by leakers,
analysts and others in the Apple blogosphere. That includes "iPhone SE 2"
and "iPhone 9. At this point, it appears that the device will simply be
dubbed the "iPhone SE," according to an apparent leak from an accessory on
Apple's official online storefront. The aforementioned tipster also
suggested that Apple would differentiate the new model from past iPhone SE
devices by referring to it specifically as an "iPhone SE 2020. It isn't
clear if the larger model - if it exists - will be dubbed the "iPhone SE
Plus. While an "iPhone 9" and "iPhone 9 Plus" moniker may make more sense
to
some consumers, the device is likely aimed at filling the gap that the
original iPhone SE left. From that perspective, the "iPhone SE" name, in
which the SE stands for "special edition," would be in-line with Apple's
past low-cost iPhone strategy. .
