Apple is working on the next-generation iPhone SE model, which is expected to launch soon. The brand's iPhone SE 4 is expected to offer plenty of improvements over its predecessor, so here are some of the ways in which it might be better than Apple's iPhone 15.
1. Apple iPhone SE 4: A refreshingly compact design
The Cupertino based giant’s iPhone SE series has always featured a compact form factor. While the base iPhone models like the iPhone 15 and iPhone 14 already have a smaller size compared to the average smartphones in the market, but the iPhone SE had an even smaller footprint. However, this is one of the aspects that kept many away from the iPhone SE, which used to feature a 4.7-inch Retina IPS LCD panel.
But the upcoming iPhone SE 4 is rumored to sport a taller 6.1-inch OLED display. Meaning, it would rival the display on the iPhone 15 in terms of size and quality. That’s not all, the iPhone SE (2022) was the last to feature Touch ID, but the next gen iPhone SE 4 could house a notch design like the iPhone 14 for Face ID technology. Some renders have showcased this device with a Dynamic Island but that still seems unlikely. But we are finally leaving the iPhone 8-like design on the next iPhone SE.
2. iPhone SE 4 is Faster
In a recent report, the processor that powers the iPhone SE 4 was revealed. It seems like Apple will equip this model with an A18 processor, which will be paired with 8GB of RAM. For those unaware, this is the same chipset that powers the brand’s latest iPhone 16 lineup.
So despite being a budget iPhone, the iPhone SE 4 would likely outclass the iPhone 15 in terms of performance. This model is also rumored to use an in-house 5G modem. Since it has the Apple A18 processor, the iPhone SE 4 could also launch with support for Apple Intelligence, Apple’s brand new Artificial Intelligence.
3. Affordable Pricing, More Accessible
Apple had announced the iPhone SE (2022) for a starting price tag of $429. Although, all of these upgrades are pointing at a price hike. So it could cost around $499 to $549. This is not exactly “budget” but it is in the range of certain upper mid range smartphones. But regardless, the iPhone SE 4 would still be over $200 cheaper than the base iPhone 15.
The company doesn't have a set timeline for the release of the iPhone SE models, with the three models in the SE family launching in 2016, 2020 and 2022. The latest rumour suggests that the iPhone SE 4 will be launched early next year.Apple iPhone SE 4 has been spotted with the model name ‘V59’. Unlike its flagship series, this model will also be able to compete with mid-range Android smartphones in the Asian market. Keep in mind that this report is based on recent rumours and reports, so take this with a grain of salt for now and stay tuned for more news!
