iPhone SE 4 Leaks: Release Date, Features & Other Details Revealed

Ever since its very first model, Apple's iPhone SE lineup has hit the market by storm, introducing budget-conscious consumers to the world of premium features at a more digestible price point. With whispers of the fourth-generation iPhone SE making rounds through the tech grapevine, the excitement starts to stir for what could finally be a game-changer in the Apple lineup.

Apple iPhone SE 4 Leaks

The iPhone SE has long been known to be quite compact, and its design was classic, with the thick bezels and the Home button housing the Touch ID. Recent rumours have it that the iPhone SE 4 is going to have a huge facelift that could see it blur the lines between Apple's Slack and flagship offerings.

The back cover of the iPhone SE 4 will be the same as the upcoming iPhone 16, according to Weibo user Fixed Focus Digital. This is an interesting point and suggests that Apple is perhaps trying to push the design of the SE closer to its premium models, making it hard for one to distinguish them from one another at first sight.

While earlier rumours all pointed toward the iPhone SE 4 taking the chassis of the base iPhone 14, this new rumour suggests that Apple might be pushing the envelope just that bit harder. The move, should it happen, could signal a significant overhaul to the SE line, placing it much nearer to the cutting edge of Apple's design philosophy.

Apple iPhone SE 4 Display and Design

Based on the reports, the Apple iPhone SE 4 may come with a 6.1-inch display, which is increased from its predecessor's 4.7 inches. This will put it more in line with the flagship models from Apple, giving the user a more immersive view.

The biggest single shift in its look may be to an all-display design, like Apple's pricier iPhones. That would mean no more home button, along with the addition of Face ID to the SE lineup. It's expected that the phone will have a notch to house the front-facing camera, and perhaps even the TrueDepth camera system necessary for Face ID.

The SE line could still finally see Apple's move from LCD to OLED, bringing better colour reproduction and deeper blacks, coupled with possibly better energy efficiency, to the budget-friendly iPhone.

And while the iPhone SE 4 will forego the second rear camera to help keep prices down, it's set to benefit from some significant changes. The potential 48-megapixel main camera dwarfs the current 12-megapixel sensor, which means much better photo quality and low-light performance in the SE lineup.

The iPhone SE 4 is expected to bite in performance. It probably will not have the latest A-series chip, but it must at least incorporate a high-end processor capable of moving through most tasks like a knife through butter. The unit is also rumoured to be 5G-enabled, ensuring that users will enjoy the very latest in cellular networks.

The iPhone SE 4 may also be the first iPhone on which an Apple in-house modem chip will be ready with better and more efficient cellular performance.

Apple iPhone SE 4 Battery Life and Charging

Battery life is always one of those things in a smartphone that concerns the user, and it might just be so in the iPhone SE 4. There are some rumours that it might sport a 3279 mAh battery, similar to what is found on the iPhone 14. With this capacity and the efficiency of newer processors, it can turn out to be some great battery life for a budget device.

In line with the latest technologies adopted by Apple, the iPhone SE 4 will have USB-C, turning away from the Lightning connector.

Apple iPhone SE 4 Release Date And Price

While the iPhone SE 4 is shaping up to be a giant leap forward from its predecessor, Apple is reportedly gunning to keep its price tag below $500. That will keep its starting price at $429, like on the current model, or increase it by about 10%.

Concerning the release date, industry insiders are speaking more in the direction of springtime 2025. Hence, the following timeline would suggest the omission of the SE line refresh in 2024. That perhaps makes it, arguably, an even more groundbreaking entry in Apple's fiscally smarter smartphone catalogue.
