Once again, Apple is generating a significant amount of attention in the tech world, with rumors swirling about the upcoming iPhone SE. This anticipation is further heightened by the excitement surrounding the new iPhone 15 series. It’s quite possible that fans are on the brink of witnessing the release of the iPhone SE 4, assuming these rumors hold true.
All About the Rumored iPhone SE 2024
According to MacRumors, the forthcoming iPhone SE 4, internally referred to as “Ghost,” is reportedly drawing inspiration from the design of the iPhone 14. Speculations are abound regarding this budget-friendly iPhone, with some intriguing features on the horizon. One notable change is the introduction of an Action Button, which is expected to replace the familiar Mute/Unmute Switch found in the iPhone 15 Pro and iPhone 15 Pro Max.
This next-gen smartphone is expected to inherit the iPhone 14’s frame and make a notable shift by incorporating a USB-C port, which marks a departure from Apple’s customary Lightning Port. Additionally, it’s rumored to sport a single 48-MP rear camera, a departure from the dual-camera setup seen in previous models. Another exciting development is the incorporation of an OLED display, and it will finally bring Face ID to the more affordable SE lineup.
The report also suggests that the iPhone SE 4, built on the iPhone 14 chassis, might not adopt the curved edges seen in the iPhone 15, and the design of the camera bump remains undecided. These potential advancements are certainly raising eyebrows, especially considering that the phone is expected to launch in 2024 or 2025.
While the inclusion of a 48MP sensor and the Action button remains uncertain due to possible cost considerations, it’s highly likely that the phone will feature USB-C, a 12MP front camera, and Face ID, ushering in a new era for the SE series. The device is expected to come with an A16 bionic, 5.4-inch FHD+ OLED display, 4GB RAM, and 2,227 mAh battery, and is rumored to be priced around 449 USD.
