Apple’s iPhone SE series is quite a favourite among budget-conscious users. It offers a direct and pocket-friendly entry into the iPhone ecosystem. Its last edition was the iPhone SE 3. It was released two years ago, and according to the speculations, the next-generation Apple iPhone SE 4 could be released next year. With iPhone SE 4 leaks and reports surfacing online, here is the complete breakdown of what we know so far.
Release Date
Generally, the iPhone SE does not follow any typical schedule for the release of the iPhone SE. Till now, only three versions of the iPhone SE have been launched, so its release pattern is mysterious. Usually, Apple releases its budget smartphone in the spring. As per the report from the Korean media, the iPhone SE 4 launch could be in 2025. According to Apple’s product roadmap and leaks, the next-generation iPhone SE could be launched anytime between March and September 2025. Some leaks suggest that Apple is close to producing the new iPhone SE, codenamed V59.
| Apple Model Name | Release Date |
| iPhone SE 1st Generation | March 31, 2016 |
| iPhone SE 2nd Generation | April 24, 2020 |
| iPhone SE 3rd Generation | March 18, 2022 |
| iPhone SE 4th Generation | Probably during March 2025 |

Price Details
Over the years, the iPhone SE’s price has increased, and as per this trend, I expect a similar situation in the iPhone SE 4. There will be major feature and design upgrades in the iPhone SE, so the leaks suggest that the price could be around Rs. 50,000 or somewhat higher.
Possible Name
Generally, Apple names its flagship phones using numbers like Apple iPhone 12, Apple iPhone 13, etc. However, the company has featured its name in the iPhone SE series by adding the year to the new model. Therefore, it is possible that the smartphone is expected to be released in 2025, and the name could be the iPhone SE 2025.
Camera
If we believe leaks, then the iPhone SE 4 could include a single-lens camera and reportedly upgrade to a 48MP camera. Till now, each iPhone SE model came with one camera, and I don’t think it could be changed with the iPhone SE 4. However, the quality of the camera could improve. One of the missing features in the iPhone SE is night mode support, and I expect Apple will fix it in the iPhone SE 4. The phone could even come with a vertical rear camera bump.

Display and Design
As the rumours suggest, the iPhone SE 4 would feature a 6.1-inch OLED display, which is bigger than its predecessors. The phone will not feature a ProMotion display and could be the last phone in the SE series to feature an OLED screen. One rumour even suggests that the iPhone SE 4 will come with Dynamic Island, which clearly indicates that the phone has a design style similar to that of the iPhone 14. The dimensions will be similar to the iPhone XR. Consider this a possible rumour, as there is still no official confirmation from Apple.
In the Apple iPhone SE 4, there will be no Touch ID Home button. Leaks suggest that Apple is planning to remove it. Some rumours even suggest that the iPhone SE 4 will feature a notch with the Face ID biometric authentication rather than the Touch ID Home button.
The leaks even suggest that Apple could add the multi-function Action button by replacing the mute switch. However, it is all rumours. So, we have to wait till the phone will be officially launched.

Battery
The phone will feature a 3279mAh battery, similar to the iPhone 14. Therefore, the device will also have a similar battery life. The rumours even suggest that the upcoming phone will feature a USB-C port instead of the lightning port.
Features and Software
Apple iPhone SE 14 is expected to be powered by the A18 chip present in the iPhone 16. It will allow you to support Apple Intelligence. This upcoming phone might mark the end of the Home button era. This indicates that Apple must discover alternate methods for executing biometric authentication on this new budget-friendly phone.
Hardware
The Apple iPhone SE 4 might be the first device to be equipped with the Apple-designed 5G chip modem. Apple has been working hard on its modern chip for many years to lessen its dependency on Qualcomm.

However, there is no concrete information yet, so we will have to wait for some time. We can expect the iPhone SE 14 storage to come in 64GB, 128GB, and 512GB variants.
