By Dade Hayes Finance Editor Apple has rolled out the iPhone SE, with its $399 price aimed at maintaining demand for the flagship device during a turbulent economic period for much of the world.

Due to COVID-19, Apple stores remain closed, but the company will begin taking online orders for the new iPhone, with deliveries projected to begin on April 24.
