The iPhone SE 4 is rumored to launch next year. Ahead of the launch, a new report claims that the cheapest non-flagship iPhone could also get artificial intelligence features thanks to Apple Intelligence. However, that won’t be the only upgrade coming to the smartphone, as per the report. The upcoming iPhone SE model is also said to sport a design similar to the iPhone 14. Furthermore, the handset will also reportedly feature an OLED panel and a single 48-megapixel camera.
iPhone SE 4 reportedly getting Apple Intelligence
According to a report According to Bloomberg’s Mark Gurman in his Power On newsletter, Apple could launch the iPhone SE 4 in early 2025. This is in line with an older report that claimed the Cupertino-based tech giant is planning to launch the non-flagship model in the first quarter of 2025.
The upcoming iPhone SE model could also get some notable upgrades, as per the report. The biggest upgrade would be the addition of Apple Intelligence features to the device right at launch. While the list of AI features that could arrive on the device is not known at the moment, it is believed that some features that rely on heavy processing on the device might not be present.
Gurman claims that the design language of the smartphone could be similar to that of the iPhone 14, with an OLED panel that stretches “across the entire device”. Previously, a report had claimed that Apple could use 6.1-inch Super XDR displays for the iPhone SE 4. Some of these panels could reportedly come from iPhone 13 screens, which are said to be repurposed by LG Display in a move that is being seen as a cost-saving measure by the company. However, a majority of the screens are said to be produced by BOE Technology.
Additionally, the iPhone SE 4 is also said to sport a single 48-megapixel camera on the back. It could come powered by Apple’s A18 chipset with 6GB and 8GB of LPDDR5 RAM options. Other reported upgrades include the addition of Face ID, a USB Type-C charging and data port, and more.
