The iPhone SE series is to be expanded by a fourth member. There have already been some hints and rumors surrounding the new special edition. You can find an overview of the information available so far about the iPhone SE 4 in the following overview.
When will the iPhone SE 4 be released?
Not much is known yet about a possible launch or even release date for the iPhone SE 4. Only from 2025 is the talk. The iPhone SE 3 was published in March 2022, so a similar period is conceivable. This means there are three years between generations. Since Apple doesn’t follow a specific rhythm with the SE series, this wouldn’t be unusual.
iPhone SE 4: Familiar design
In terms of design, the iPhone SE 4 is said to be the most iPhone 14 oriented and only differ from it in a few points. Concrete information on this comes from from the MacRumors portal. So it should iPhone SE 4 received a modified housing version of the iPhone 14 with the project name “Ghost”.
Like the iPhone 14, the housing material is likely to be made of aluminum (6013 T6). There should be differences in the number of cameras and in weight. That’s how it should be Weight of the iPhone SE 4 is 166 grams, slightly less than the 172 grams of the iPhone 14. This is probably related to the missing camera sensor: Instead of two cameras like the iPhone 14, the iPhone SE 4 should only have one sensor.
Die Color options are also said to be similar to those of the iPhone 14: For example, a black prototype of the iPhone SE 4 is said to have been spotted, which is reminiscent of the “midnight” color of the iPhone 14. There are four color variants in total.
iPhone SE 4: No camera upgrade to 48 MP?
Whether the Camera It is still unclear whether it sits individually in the housing or is placed together with the LED flash in a pill-shaped camera module. According to previous rumors, instead of a 12 MP camera there could be one 48MP wide-angle camera can be used, as it also occurs in the current iPhone 15 models. That would be a huge upgrade for the budget iPhone.
Other information However, indicate that the iPhone SE 4 will not receive an upgrade to 48 MP after all. Instead, a camera in the style of the iPhone XR will be used, based on a Sony IMX503 sensor 12 megapixels. The new camera should support Cinematic Mode in 1080p as well as Deep Fusion, Smart HDR and AI-supported photo and portrait mode features. However, there should not be a night mode.
iPhone SE 4: How big is the budget iPhone?
According to a previous report by MacRumours The fourth generation iPhone SE should also be a revised one OLED-Display received, which is derived from that of the iPhone 14. According to previous rumors, the panel 6.1 inches measure and support a frame rate of 60 Hz. Instead of TouchID as in the previous SE models, the iPhone SE 4 FaceID are used. Accompanying the Facial recognition The smartphone is likely to have a wide notch. This has been since then iPhone X known.
iPhone SE 4: With elements of the iPhone 15 Pro
Although the Special Edition – at least in terms of design – could almost be considered a twin of the iPhone 14, elements of the iPhone 15 Pro flow in. So rumors say that on the one hand the programmable Action-Button taken over and on the other hand the Lightning connector through one USB-C-Port is replaced.
Connectivity: This is what it looks like inside
According to current rumors, there will be one inside the iPhone SE 4 Apple A18 Chip as well as a Snapdragon X70 5G modem and Apple’s U1 UWB chip installed. Other specifications include USB-C (with USB 2.0 speed), a battery with around 3.0xx to 3,279 mAh and 20 watt charging via USB as well 12 Watt MagSafeat least 6 GB LPDDR5 RAM, 128 GB to 512 GB storage, Wi-Fi 6 and Bluetooth 5.3.
Price: How much should the iPhone SE 4 cost?
There is still no concrete price for the iPhone SE 4. According to a leak However, the budget iPhone could be priced between around 500 and 700 euros come. That would correspond to the price level iPhone SE 3. The portal provides more specific price information 9to5Mac.
Accordingly, the fourth generation iPhone SE could start at $499, which corresponds to a price increase of 10 percent. If you convert that, the iPhone SE 4 in the lowest storage configuration would cost just under 570 euros. If you want more storage space, you would have to pay around 630 euros on the counter.
iPhone SE 4: Mit Apple Intelligence?
In addition, it is rumored that Apple will introduce the new SE model Apple Intelligence could equip. In order to achieve this, the iPhone must have at least 8 GB of RAM and 128 GB of storage – it is quite possible that Apple will then completely cancel the 64 GB version. Whether that is realistic remains to be seen.
Because on the one hand, Apple is under massive pressure to deliver what it promised AI features to be distributed more widely – currently only the latest iPhone 16 models and the Pro models from last year’s generation support Apple Intelligence, and not even to the full extent. Further AI functions are only expected to be added at the end of 2024 or beginning of 2025, and even later in the EU.
Equipping the budget iPhone with AI functions would certainly not be a bad idea. On the other hand, you can probably expect criticism in this case – after all, the more expensive iPhone 15 does not currently support Apple Intelligence.
