Apple is expected to hold its first public event of the year during the week of March 21. The Cupertino-based company will reportedly utilise this supposed small-scale event to announce a 4-inch iPhone dubbed iPhone SE, a 9.7-inch iPad Pro model, and a range of new Apple Watch models alongside more accessories.

While earlier reports pointed to March 15 as the big date, Re/Code claims that Apple plans to hold the event in the week beginning March 21. The publication isn't offering a firm date, however, it is strongly hinting that March 21 could be the day.

A number of other outlets are also independently putting their money on March 21. The date is interesting for Apple. To recall, the Cupertino-based company has a hearing on March 22, where the company will argue about being required to hack into an iPhone to help FBI and other intelligence agencies access data of one of the San Bernardino shooters.

As for the specifications, the iPhone SE, will reportedly sport a 4-inch screen, that will not support 3D Touch functionality. The handset, other than having the same form factor as the iPhone 5s, will have nothing else in common.

The innards of the smartphone are said to be A9 SoC and M9 co-processor, the combination that we saw in the last year's iPhone models. On the photography front, the iPhone SE is said to pack in a 12-megapixel rear iSight camera, the same as the iPhone 6s.
