Apple is rumored to launch the iPhone SE 4 in March 2025. The affordable phone is expected to feature a 6.06-inch LTPS OLED display with a resolution of 2,532 x 1,170 pixels and up to 800 nits of peak brightness. It will also include the Ceramic Shield for added durability.
Under the hood, the iPhone SE 4 is said to be powered by Apple’s A18 chipset, the same processor found in the iPhone 16 and iPhone 16 Plus models. It will be paired with 8GB of LPDDR5X RAM for smooth performance. The device will also feature Apple’s custom 5G modem, codenamed ‘Centauri.’
In terms of camera capabilities, the iPhone SE 4 will likely sport a single 48MP Sony Exmor IMX904 sensor at the back and a 12MP shooter at the front.
This should provide decent photography performance for a budget-friendly device.
