While the iPhone 16 series just launched a few weeks ago, many consumers are eyeing Apple’s next smartphone instead. The iPhone SE 4 could debut as soon as spring 2025, featuring a complete overhaul that addresses its predecessor’s most notable shortcomings. These could include a modern design that resembles an iPhone 14, 2024’s Apple A18 chipset, an in-house 5G modem, and iPhone 15 cameras.

According to 9to5Mac, the iPhone SE 4 will be the first to feature Apple’s own 5G chip, which may also handle Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, and GPS. This could contribute to energy efficiency, especially when the device is in low-power mode.

Otherwise, the iPhone SE 4 will reportedly feature the base A18 processor available on the iPhone 16 and iPhone 16 Plus. If so, the upcoming midrange iPhone would pack 8GB of RAM and support Apple Intelligence features.

In the camera department, the report states that Apple will borrow the iPhone 15’s 48MP wide camera and the 12MP front-facing one. The device likely won’t offer more than a single rear lens, but thanks to the upgraded resolution, it could unlock 2x “optical” zoom.

Beyond that, the iPhone SE 4 will likely look like an iPhone 14, particularly on the front side. The device is expected to boast a 6.1-inch display with a 1170-by-2532 pixel resolution, a notch to house Face ID sensors, thinner bezels, and no physical Home button. This would finally retire the prehistoric iPhone design and make the smartphone more appealing to a broader user base.
