Apple has one of the most consistently updated product lineups in the consumer technology industry, releasing yearly iterations of its flagship product, the iPhone, along with frequent iterations of MacBooks, iPads, and other devices. Now, fans know when they'll get a look at Apple's next versions of some of its devices, as it has announced a new event taking place early next week.
Following a rumor of a showcase that broke this morning, Apple Senior Vice President Greg Joswiak confirmed that a show is in the works for March 8, though he didn't go much further than that in the announcement. The show is adopting the tagline «Peek Performance,» hinting at what's to come. Reports have indicated that the show will include an iPhone SE 3 with 5G capabilities.

The iPhone SE line is the most affordable alternative in Apple's typical premium-priced lineup, making it a solid offering for those that are considering switching from Android devices – which are available at much lower prices than iPhones – or anyone that doesn't feel the need for a top-end device. A new iteration with 5G would greatly benefit Apple's lineup, making the offerings robust enough to appeal to consumers at every price point.
The question is which body style a new iPhone SE would adopt. The first iPhone SE used the same chassis as the iPhone 5s, while newer iterations have adopted the same style as the iPhone 6. Newer versions of the iPhone have removed the home button, though, and it may be time for the iPhone SE to make the same shift.
Other likely appearances at the March 8 Apple event include a newer version of the iPad Air and a lower-priced Macbook Pro with Apple Silicon processors.
