Are you thinking about getting a new iPhone? You certainly have options: Apple’s latest generation of smartphones, the latest generation of smartphones, The iPhone 16 seriesoffers four different models, each with their own plums and minus. If you don’t have the latest and greatest, you can consider the last year iPhone 15Or even 2022 iPhone 14. They are all great.
However, there is an iPhone that stands out from the others: the iPhone SE. In contrast to any other iPhone that Apple is currently selling, it has a home button. In fact, the phone sees almost identical to the iPhone 8 Apple published in 2017, which is borrowing even the design from the iPhone 6 from 2014. That means that is not as capable as newer iPhones and a bad battery life for its size. In short, the current SE is a little black sheep and probably not the iPhone that you can buy them in 2024 – even if it only costs $ 429.
This price is the main sales argument of the SE brand, Especially when this specific model was started in 2022. Apple takes the design from the last generation (in this case the iPhone 8 style), packs a modern chip inside and cuts up the RRP. In fact, you will receive an iPhone that can keep up with the performance of the flagship apples, but at half costs, if not more. Sure, the cameras are not so good and the device looks a bit outdated, but again you get a lot of iPhone for the price.
To be honest, I would not recommend buying an iPhone now. But if you can wait until spring, Apple may have exactly what you are looking for in a brand new SE (which, according to rumors, may even have a different name).
2025 could be the year of the SE
As reported by MacrumorsAnalysts have confirmed that Apple is working on an iPhone SE of the fourth generation. The only “confirmed” specification from this report is a 5G modem made by Apple. If true, it would be the first iPhone with a non-qualified 5G modem, but it is not clear whether this would mean performance increases or other positive changes for customers. Analysts say that the SE is supposed to start at the end of Q1 2025, which could possibly follow with a rumored announcement in March. Apple revealed the SE 3 in March 2022, so it would be consistent.
After the rumors we will see an iPhone SE 4 (or whatever it publish) with some decent technical data. According to Macrumors, the new SE could have a 6.1-inch OLED display with facial ID, an improved A-series chip (although it is not safe which chip Apple would use), USB-C, a 48-MP- Reverse camera, 8 GB RAM and RAM and this new 5G modem. This additional RAM would enable the SE 4 to run Apple IntelligenceWhich is obviously important for Apple, but maybe not too Anyone who has already turned it on.
If these functions exist, this would be a right upgrade via the current iPhone SE. The SE 3 rocks a 4.7-inch 750p LCD, a much smaller and lower resolution than what is rumored. It also uses the A15 -Bionic chip, which is still efficient enough in 2024 (it is the same chip that is used in the iPhone 14) a flash connection, a 12 -MP ride. 4 GB RAMAnd of course a Qualcomm 5G modem.
The SE is always based on the previous generation of the iPhone, and at the moment it is probably the iPhone 14. Based on these rumors, the new SE would have a certain advantage over iPhone 14: The 14 has 12 MP rear cameras. 6 GB RAMA flash port and does not support Apple Intelligence, which improves the rumored SE. And during the A15 Bionic chip of 14 years is strong for powerful iOS 18The SE 4 is undoubtedly delivered with a newer A-series chip. The A15 was the latest iPhone chip at the time when the SE 3 came out: If Apple continues the trend, the SE 4 could receive the A18 chip of the iPhone 16. Also the 15 ProS A17 Chip Would be pretty upgrade.
There is also a potential name change for iPhone SE 4, like a solid delicious Majin Buu (Don’t you have to fight Saiyajiners?) Did Apple think about naming the iPhone 16e, and driven it as a budget version of its latest model and not as a separate line. BU’s report follows a Similar statement Digital focus from the popular Chinese account.
What would a new iPhone SE look like?
Apart from the internals, Leckages have now also received alleged dummy units of the iPhone SE 4.
This tweet is currently not available. It can be loaded or has been removed.
The biggest changes here, at least according to a video from Majin Bu, are the swap against a USB-C connection and the move to a single camera lens. The former is necessary so that the phone is sold in the EU And represents a modest upgrade via the 14, while the latter is probably a cost reduction measure, but can nevertheless be regarded as an upgrade if the individual is more objectively powerful than the previous dual lenses, as rumored. While moving to a single camera lens is a change compared to the iPhone 14, the current iPhone SE also uses only a single camera lens and ensures a less noticeable camera base.
The home button has now also disappeared over the old SE and noticeably a score If instead of the dynamic island, which Apple has completed on all new iPhones, if the iPhone 15. This is no surprise, since the base iPhone 14 also had a notch, but everyone who had hoped would be Apple in the past Leave the notch completely after the announcement of the iPhone 15 must probably wait for the SE 5 (or whatever it means) to see that this wish will come true.
Bu is not that First delicious To find an iPhone SE 4 -dummy, although your post is certainly clearer than previous looks, especially with regard to the notch.
Will Apple keep the price low?
Of course, the value of a rumored SE depends on the price. Ideally, Apple would maintain the same price of $ 429 for the SE 4 -which was even a hike from the starting price of 399 US dollars for previous SE models. These rumors indicate an excellent all-round iPhone that certain modern or “pro functions such as A Camera keyPresent Action buttonZoom lens, titanium building, 120 Hz promotion display, always on display, Dynamic islandAnd a maximum brightness. Hopefully Apple can motivate them to evaluate the SE if the scrap does not want or need these functions. At the time of this writing, rumors do not suggest what Apple will do in one way or another.
At the end of the day, most people who want to buy an iPhone want to be able to carry out their favorite apps and take great photos and videos. The SE traditionally does these tasks without any problems. If the fourth generation iPhone SE actually delivers these rumors, these rumors actually deliver. And It is appropriate, it may be the best iPhone for most of us.
