Apple iPhone SE 4 likely to come with iPhone XR's design - What to expect

Apple iPhone SE 4 launch: The Cupertino-based tech giant Apple is reportedly working on the new iPhone SE.  According to a new report, the fourth-generation ‌iPhone SE‌ is expected to feature almost exactly the same design as the iPhone XR, which was launched in 2018.

"Popular leakster Jon Prosser said that the fourth-generation ‌iPhone SE‌ will effectively share the design of the ‌iPhone‌ XR from 2018. The change is plausible given that the first-generation ‌iPhone SE‌'s design was based on 2013's ‌iPhone‌ 5S, while the second- and third-generation ‌iPhone SE‌'s design is based on 2017's ‌iPhone‌ 8," MacRumors reported. 

"The fourth-generation ‌iPhone SE‌ has been rumored since before the third-generation model launched earlier this year. Prosser's latest claim lines up with a recent forecast from display analyst Ross Young, who said that the next-generation ‌iPhone SE‌ will feature a 6.1-inch display with a "notch" cutout at the top of the display," it added. 

Multiple reports, including information from MyDrivers and Apple analyst Ming-Chi Kuo, suggest that Apple is planning to add a Touch ID Side button to the iPhone SE, much like the iPad Air and iPad mini. 

As per IANS, it is expected that iPhone SE will not gain Face ID, instead sticking with Touch ID like previous models to keep costs down, the report said.  The report mentioned that there will no longer be space for a capacitive Touch ID Home button in the device's bottom bezel. 

Meanwhile, another report, tech giant Apple might bring USB-C port to AirPods and Mac accessories by 2024. The company might introduce USB-C to its newest AirPods, AirPods Pro, and AirPods by the year 2024, while Mac accessories like the Magic Mouse, Magic Keyboard, and Magic Trackpad may convert to USB-C as soon as the next year.
