Apple’s long-rumorediPhone SE 4is expected to launch this spring, and there have been plenty ofleaks and rumorsabout the budget device. Now, a newlyleaked videoshows us what could be our best look at the phone yet.
Known tipsterMajin Burecently posted a video on X of what could be the iPhone SE 4 in all its glory, with a single-lens rear camera and a notch design reminiscent of theiPhone 14. The phone’s color in the video is white, but Apple will likely release the iPhone SE 4 in multiple colors as it did for theprevious iPhone SE. You can check out the video below.
When will Apple release the new iPhone SE?
The new iPhone SE is expected to be released soon and could get a name change.
Dynamic Island or a Notch?
There are contrary rumors about the iPhone SE 4’s design
The leaked video on X shows off the iPhone SE 4 with a notch design. However, recent reports have suggested it could feature Apple’s Dynamic Island, similar to the iPhone 16. A reputable leaker, Evan Blass, recently posted avisual assetof the iPhone SE 4 with Dynamic Island. He has nowposted on Xsaying, “It would seem I owe you folks a refund.” This could be an admission that this leaked video of the iPhone SE 4 is the real deal.
Even without Dynamic Island, the iPhone SE 4 is shaping up to be a great phone.
Applereportedlywas testing a version of the phone with Dynamic Island but chose to go with the notch design instead. As much as I want to see Dynamic Island on the new iPhone SE, I understand why Apple may have chosen the notch design for its latest budget phone. If the iPhone SE has a notch, it will better differentiate the device from theiPhone 16and keep Dynamic Island as a flagship feature.
Even without Dynamic Island, the iPhone SE 4 is shaping up to be a great phone. If the rumors about itsspecificationsare accurate, it could sport an A18 processor and 8GB of RAM, enough to power and supportApple Intelligence. The biggest department the iPhone SE 4 could lack in is cameras, as it’s rumored only to be equipped with a single 48-megapixel rear camera and a front selfie shooter. Price-wise, the phone is likely to costunder $500, making it an attractive choice for consumers on a budget wanting an iPhone with the latest software features.
The iPhone 17’s Dynamic Island may not be changing
The iPhone 17’s Dynamic Island could remain the same size as last year’s iPhone 16.
