The iPhone SE 4 has been hyped to feature a significant hardware update as well such as a new chipset, cameras, USB-C port, display, etc. Well, experts say that along with major updates, the phone might be a little more expensive as compared to its predecessor, though it still might be a lot more affordable compared to the mainstream Apple handsets. 

The iPhone SE 4 might look drastically different from its predecessor. According to a couple of leaks, though the iPhone SE 4 might look similar to the iPhone 14, it might have just a single camera unit at the back panel. The phone might feature a metal unibody layout with horizontal side frames and might be enclosed by a huge 6.1-inch screen at the front, which is quite bigger compared to the iPhone SE 3’s 4.7-inch screen. Reports indicate that the iPhone SE 4 might be the first iPhone handset in Apple’s SE series without the home button. The new phone might also have a Face ID biometric system.

The iPhone SE 4 is predicted to receive a USB-C port for charging and an action button. The device might have an IP67/68 rating for dust and water resistance. The iPhone SE 4 will have a repair-friendly build with the selection to simply swap the back panel or the display distinctly. The camera island will be the significant distinct parameter between the iPhone 14 and the iPhone SE 4. Recent leaks suggest that the iPhone SE 4 might be supported by an A18 chipset, which will make it as robust as the next-generation iPhone handsets.

Nevertheless, the A18 chip given in the iPhone SE 4 might have fewer CPU/GPU cores. It is uncertain whether the new phone will feature Apple Intelligence or not. The iPhone SE 4 might feature a single 48-megapixel shooter. Finally, the upcoming phone is expected to be the first phone to feature an in-house developed 5G modem. It is speculated that the iPhone SE 4 might provide 128 GB and 6 GB RAM.
