The anticipated Apple iPhone SE 4 looks set to receive a major design update according to recent leaks. Newly surfaced CAD models seem to confirm that the next iteration of the iPhone SE will adopt a look reminiscent of the current iPhone models, including the iPhone 14.
The debate about whether a new iPhone SE would be introduced and its potential design has been ongoing. However, the discussion may now be informed by tangible evidence that suggests significant changes are on the horizon for the budget-friendly iPhone series. With the last iPhone SE model hailing from 2022 still looking reasonable in 2024, an updated design is both plausible and logical. Although it remains to be seen if Apple shares this perspective.
After much speculation, the most recent CAD renders published by 91Mobiles indicate that the outdated design featuring a 4.7-inch screen with wide bezels and a home button may be replaced. The new iPhone SE is expected to sport a 6.1-inch display, in line with the larger screens and thicker notch seen on the iPhone models from the iPhone X and beyond. This would usher in the adoption of Face ID True Depth camera technology for the iPhone SE line.
Not many changes seem to be planned for the rear of the device, which appears to maintain a single camera setup. However, it is anticipated that this camera will be upgraded to boast a 48 MP sensor. Additionally, the traditional Lightning port is expected to be swapped out for a USB-C port, aligning with the ongoing industry transition towards universal charging solutions. The dimensions revealed suggest that the new model will be similar in size to the iPhone 13 and iPhone 14.
The leaked images do not confirm the presence of an Action Button, which was previously rumored. It’s also worth noting the speculation about the possibility of Apple introducing an iPhone 16 SE and an iPhone 16 SE Plus, positioned below the future iPhone 16 and iPhone 16 Plus models.
While these details paint an intriguing picture of what could be coming from Apple’s more affordable iPhone line, it’s important to remember that these are leaks and not official confirmations from Apple itself. Fans of the iPhone SE will be watching closely for any official news from the tech giant regarding the SE 4’s design and features.
