There have long been rumours that
Apple is working on a new iPhone SE model. While we've covered various leaks about the iPhone SE 4, the latest report hints at a timeline for the release of an upcoming cheaper version of the iPhone. So, here's everything we know so far.
According to a South Korean publication (Aju News), the Cupertino-based giant is expected to hit mass production soon with the announcement reportedly set for March 2025. The iPhone SE 3 was announced back in 2022, and Aju News stated that the iPhone SE 4 will also have a similar launch timeframe. To recall, we covered a report back in October, which also claimed that the iPhone SE 4 will have a March 2025 launch. So the latest rumor is also in line with our previous report.
The fresh publication report also adds that Apple is partnering with LG Innotek to supply the iPhone SE 4 camera module. Its supplier is expected to start mass production in December. As of right now, the company is apparently performing key tests ahead of the commercial production stage. LG reportedly supplies Apple with camera modules around three months ahead of the iPhone’s launch. So the March 2025 release might have been confirmed.
Finally, the report also adds that the iPhone SE 4 will feature a 48MP camera on the back, which is a major upgrade from its predecessor's 12MP sensor. It's worth noting that this is still just speculation, so don't pay too much attention to this news right now. Other notable features include an A18 Bionic chipset, a larger 3,279mAh battery pack, Apple Intelligence support, Face ID support, 20W wired charging, Qi2 wireless charging, and MagSafe charging.
