iPhone SE 4 rumor suggests a better camera, a larger display, and Face ID
Apple has just released its latest iPhone 15, but its price tag might not be to everyone’s liking. If you're an iPhone fan looking to get one, you've probably heard of the budget-friendly iPhone SE. The last iPhone SE 3 was introduced back in 2022; therefore, we're already expecting the next generation, and rumors about the iPhone SE 4 are already circulating on the web.
Tipster Nithin Prasad shared on X (via Android Headlines) information about the upcoming iPhone SE 4, including display specs, performance, charging, and design.
The tipster claims that the iPhone SE 4 will feature a 6.1-inch LTPS OLED display, similar to the one used in the iPhone 14. It will support a 60Hz refresh rate, which might not be the best these days, but it still promises a smooth experience. The 6.1-inch display is a significant upgrade compared to the 4.7-inch display on the iPhone SE 3.
Additionally, the design of the iPhone SE 4 is expected to resemble that of the iPhone XR, featuring a nearly bezel-less display. The source also suggests that the iPhone SE 4 will support Face ID and have better cameras. Considering that the iPhone SE 3 has a single 12MP wide camera on the back, an improved camera with the new model would not be a surprise.
As for the chipset expected in the iPhone SE 4, the tipster claims it would be Apple’s A15 chip, the same one used in the iPhone SE 3, the iPhone 13 series, and actually the iPhone 14 and iPhone 14 Plus. The chip is fast and will be relevant for a few years at least. It performs better than the mid-range Snapdragon 6xx and MediaTek processors commonly found on Android phones in this price range.
Regarding the release date of the iPhone SE 4, we can expect it to be towards the end of 2024 or in 2025. The tipster also hints at a release around that time, but the exact date is still uncertain. Stay tuned for more updates.

Apple switched from the Lightning port to USB-C with the iPhone 15 series, so Prasad's suggestion that the iPhone SE 4 will come with a USB-C charging port is highly likely. According to the information from the tipster's post, the battery might have a capacity of 3,200mAh.
