iPhone SE (2020) compatibility

Will the new SE using iOS 13 sync with iTunes 12.8.2.3 on my MacBook Pro (Retina, 15-inch Mid 2015) running High Sierra 10.13.6?

Yes, your iPhone SE should be able to sync with your MacBook Pro running High Sierra. You can find more information here: Sync your iPhone, iPad, or iPod using your computer.

Hi again Jameson, so I bought the new SE, plugged it in to my MacBookPro in order to restore my 6s's backup from iTunes (per my original question) and got the message "Software update is required to connect to your iOS device". I called Apple Support and was told I had to update my MacOS to Catalina. Is this, then, in fact the case? Just want confirmation before I return the new phone. Thanks.
