Apple Set to Launch the Most Affordable iPhone SE 4 in February

Apple is expected to unveil its most affordable iPhone of the year, the iPhone SE 4, in the second week of February, according to a Bloomberg report. Leaks and rumors about the upcoming device have been circulating for some time now, but this report suggests that the launch may take place as early as next week.

However, Apple has yet to officially confirm the release of the iPhone SE 4. According to the report, the company will not host an event for the launch but will instead introduce the device via a press release. The iPhone SE 4 is expected to be available to customers by the end of February.

Leaks have indicated that the iPhone SE 4 will feature a significant design improvement over its predecessors. For the first time in the SE series, the home button will be removed, and the phone will adopt a full-screen design similar to the iPhone 14. The front camera will be hidden in a notch design for Face ID.

Rumors also suggest that the iPhone SE 4 will come with a 6.1-inch OLED display, powered by the A18 chip, which was used in last year’s iPhone 16 and 16 Plus models. Additionally, the phone is expected to feature a 48-megapixel rear camera and a 24-megapixel front camera.

This model will also mark the first time the iPhone SE series supports USB-C charging, and there may be a possibility of Apple using its own custom modem, though this remains unconfirmed.

Apple first launched the iPhone SE in 2016, promoting it as an affordable option with features similar to its more expensive models.
