Apple's next iPhone will launch next month, according to a new report, but it may not be the phone you're expecting.
The company traditionally updates its iPhone line once a year, at an event in September, but rumours have been building for months that Apple is developing a new device that will launch in the Spring.
Now a report in 9to5Mac claims that the new iPhone will be unveiled at an event on Tuesday March 15, alongside the iPad Air 3 and Apple Watch 2.
Although there are plenty of rumours flying about the iPhone 7 , this is NOT that phone. This is what many are expecting to be called the iPhone 5se .
The iPhone 7 is expected to launch in September 2016 - according to the usual schedule.
Confusing right? Here's what we know so far about the iPhone 5se.
Apple currently sells three iPhone models - the 4.7-inch iPhone 6s and 5.5-inch 6s Plus, which were both launched in September 2015, and the 4-inch iPhone 5s, which launched in September 2013.
The iPhone 5se is rumoured to be a replacement for the iPhone 5s - bringing Apple's 4-inch iPhone up to date with the other two devices.
The "se" suffix has reportedly been described in two ways by Apple employees: as a "special edition" variation of the 4-inch iPhone screen size, and as an "enhanced" version of the iPhone 5s.
Leaked photos suggest that it will take design queues from the iPhone 6s and 6s Plus - , with curved glass edges and a "Touch ID" fingerprint reader .
