Apple is set to reveal the iPhone SE 4 this week. This will be the first update to the SE lineup in two years. Major improvements are expected, especially in design. The new model is rumored to resemble Apple’s latest flagship devices. A recent leak from case maker Spigen has given us an early glimpse of the phone’s design.
iPhone SE 4 Design Leak
Spigen mistakenly posted images of an iPhone case labeled for the “iPhone SE 4th gen.” A Reddit post revealed the leak. Digital Trends reported that Spigen originally uploaded images for an iPhone SE 3 case. However, the design shown was clearly different. This suggests an entirely new model.
The images, now removed, confirm earlier leaks. The iPhone SE 4 features a notch display and flat edges, similar to the iPhone 14. It has a single rear camera and comes in White. The power and volume buttons are on the left. A button on the right side could be either the Alert Slider or the new Action Button.
Will the iPhone SE 4 Have Dynamic Island?
A big question is whether the iPhone SE 4 will feature Dynamic Island. Tipster Evan Blass suggests that it might. This would be a major upgrade for the SE series. However, most leaked images show a notch instead. This means Dynamic Island might not make it to the SE 4.
Expected iPhone SE 4 Specs
Here’s what we might see in the SE 4:
- Display: A 6.1-inch OLED Super Retina XDR screen.
- Processor: The A18 chip, likely the same as in the iPhone 16 and 16 Plus.
- Cameras: A 48MP rear camera and a 24MP front camera for sharper images.
- Other Features:
- A USB-C port replacing Lightning.
- Apple’s in-house modem instead of Qualcomm’s.
Launch Date and Availability
Apple has not confirmed the release date. However, Bloomberg’s Mark Gurman predicts it could launch this week. If true, the phone will likely debut in India and other major markets at the same time.
Final Thoughts
The iPhone SE 4 could be Apple’s most exciting budget phone yet. It may bring a fresh design, powerful hardware, and improved cameras. If these leaks are accurate, the SE 4 will be a major step up from its predecessor. We’ll soon know for sure.
