Tomas Chlebek Steven Milunovich, an analyst at UBS, sent out the results of a survey to investors yesterday, according to which iPhone SE accounted for 16% of all iPhones sold in the second quarter of this year.
The survey was conducted in the US by Consumer Intelligence Research Partners (CIRP) and involved 500 people. It revealed that 9% of all customers who bought an iPhone in the second quarter of 2016 invested in the iPhone SE 64GB and 7% in the iPhone SE 16GB. According to Milunovich, this is an unexpected success of the new XNUMX-inch iPhone, which, however, is likely to have a negative impact (in terms of margins and investors) on the average price at which the iPhone is sold.
According to Milunovich (referring to the CIRP survey), the 10% lower average capacity of sold iPhones should also have an effect on this. The average selling price of the iPhone is currently supposed to be $637, while the consensus on Wall Street estimates this amount to be $660.
Still, Milunovich maintains a "buy" rating on Apple's stock and expects such declines to be short-lived. UBS says that iPhone sales will stabilize next year and even increase by 15 percent next year.
I will stick with the iPhone 5 with 64GB until Apple comes up with a new technology that would be worth it. What I consider the most important is the flashlight, camera, space and % easy to change the flashlight.
The IP6S chipset is so good that the phone's durability will surprise you, so I recommend switching to the SE and then wait a few years with enough power, durability/two days at rest/, a great camera and the possibility to simply replace the old battery, but it's still the same IP5S body
Well, I'll only go to the 4″ format, the kids have iPhones 6 and you can't stand anything at all. We'll see what Apple brings next year, anyway I'll be in the US in October so we'll see what I do..
I read somewhere that SE, on the other hand, has a relatively high margin.
