March 18th Could See iPhone 5se, iPad Air 3 Go On Sale

It looks like folks who are looking forward to a couple of new offerings from Apple – in particular the 4” iPhone 5se as well as the iPad Air 3, will skip on the pre-order period, as a report claims that both of these devices will be unveiled this coming March 15th (which is in line with previous rumors), and will be made available for purchase three days down the road on March 18th. No idea on whether the bright pink option for the iPhone 5se will be part of the deal though, and neither can we confirm at the moment as to whether the iPad Air 3 will sport a 4K display.

It will no doubt be a more affordable handset, and can be considered to be an alternative to those who would want a smartphone with a less unwieldy 5” or larger display. Touted to run on the powerful A9 SoC alongside the M9 motion co-processor, it is also said to boast always-on Siri and an NFC chip that would allow you to jump on board the Apple Pay bandwagon in double quick time.

As for the iPad Air 3, it remains to be seen whether this release will be a catalyst to spur contracting iPad sales. All of our questions should be answered by the time the third week of March concludes.
