iPhone SE 4: What to expect from Apple’s cheapest new iPhone

Now iPhone 16 series Now that it’s available to customers, some people may be wondering what’s next for the iPhone. But not this iPhone 17and not a year away…

The next iPhone should actually be iPhone SE 4, excluding any delay. This iPhone will be released next spring, which means we’re about six months away from seeing it. This will be the first update iPhone SE in three years and will likely be the biggest renovation iPhone SE since its inception.

Newer design, better display

Apple has been sticking to the iPhone 8 design ever since. iPhone SE This design still features a 4.7-inch LCD screen, rounded edges, and a home button. But the next iPhone SE should move away from this…

In its place, we are waiting a similar design iPhone 14It has a larger 6.1-inch OLED display, a flat-edge design, Face ID, and smaller notches from that era. However, we still expect the device to have a single camera instead of a dual camera. iPhone 14.

another one rumor also claimed the next iPhone SE It will gain the Action Button that was initially introduced on the iPhone 15 Pro and now on the entire iPhone 16 series. This will replace the mute switch and offer iPhone SE buyers a new, customizable button.

USB-C

Unlike iPhone 14 And current iPhone SEApple is expected to move away from the Lightning connector on the iPhone SE 4.

This is mostly because EU regulation It requires all devices with a charging port to switch to a combo connector, which is USB-C.

Apple reverts to USB-C at startup iPhone 15 last year’s squad and next year iPhone SE It will be the last iPhone to make the switch. If you are a iPhone SE If you’re a buyer, you’ll soon be able to charge your phone with the same cable as your iPad and laptop.

Apple Intelligence

Accordingly reports Next from Bloomberg’s Mark Gurman iPhone SE It should probably support Apple Intelligence with the A18 chip and 8GB of RAM. It’s a bit surprising, but it seems like Apple wants to get Apple Intelligence into the hands of as many people as possible, even on its cheapest new iPhone.

As a reminder, Apple Intelligence It offers a host of new features, including Authoring Tools, Photo Cleanup, Genmoji, Image Playground, Notification Summaries, and the all-new Siri.

iPhone SE pricing

Accordingly rumorsnext generation iPhone SE it will be more expensive, potentially $499. But considering it’s a very modern iPhone for under $500, that’s still a pretty reasonable price.

Apple also sells iPhone 14 It’s currently priced at $599, so the fact that we’ll be getting a modernized version of this phone for even less would be quite a steal. Apple will most likely stop production iPhone 14 after publishing the next one iPhone SEThis means the iPhone lineup could potentially look like this:

• iPhone SE: $499
• iPhone 15: $699
• iPhone 15 Plus: $799
• iPhone 16: $799
• iPhone 16 Plus: $899
• iPhone 16 Pro: $999
• iPhone 16 Pro Maximum: $1199

This would be a fairly unified iPhone lineup, with all iPhones having USB-C. It would definitely be a bit weird if it were cheaper iPhone SE It had Apple Intelligence support but was more expensive iPhone 15 It didn’t, so it wouldn’t surprise me if Apple discontinued this phone as well.
