The possible launch of the iPhone SE 4 in 2025 has already caused quite a stir in the technology community, and rightly so, given the rumors of features and capabilities it could offer. In many ways, iPhone SE 4 could allow users to experience almost everything the flagship iPhone 16 series has to offer, but at almost half the price. That said, a lot of information has already been leaked, including insights from notable sources like Bloomberg's Ming-Chi Kuo and Mark Gurman. Here, let's take a look at what we can expect from iPhone SE 4 when it launches next year in 2025.

iPhone SE 4 could offer Apple Intelligence, but at an affordable price
iPhone SE 4 is expected to support Apple's AI functionality, which would make it the most affordable iPhone to offer this feature. Numerous leaks suggest that the iPhone SE 4 could be the first in the SE lineup to feature Apple's artificial intelligence capabilities, or “Apple Intelligence,” as the company prefers to call it.
It's important to note that while the iPhone SE 4 will likely have these features, last year's iPhone 15 does not. The main reason is expected to be the more recent processor in the SE 4, possibly combined with 8 GB of RAM. It is widely speculated that Apple could equip the iPhone SE 4 with the A18 chipset, following a trend of using the latest processors in SE models. This would allow Apple to deliver Apple Intelligence features on the SE 4 via the latest chipset.
This chipset also adds to predictions that the iPhone SE 4 could have an impact on iPhone 16 sales, as it can offer flagship features at a significantly lower price.

iPhone SE 4 is expected in 2025 with a single camera setup
The iPhone SE 4 is expected to have a single camera setup, but this probably won't be a major drawback; previous SE models have also used a single camera. Apple may continue this trend in the SE 4, further distinguishing it from the more expensive iPhone 16 models. The SE 4 could include a single Fusion Camera, allowing lossless optical quality zoom of up to 2x, allowing for high-quality portrait photos without the need for a telephoto lens.
While the SE 4 won't offer an ultrawide camera, research has repeatedly shown that users in the target market prefer zoom capabilities, so the lack of an ultrawide lens shouldn't be a major problem.
However, these details should be taken with a grain of salt as Apple has not confirmed them.
iPhone SE 4 Price in India
As for the price in India, what the iPhone SE 3 is currently selling for ₹47,600 after a recent price cut. Based on this, it's reasonable to expect the price of the iPhone SE 4 to be around that price ₹50,000. If it indeed includes Apple Intelligence, a fast processor and other modern features at this price, it could be very successful in the Indian market.
There's also the possibility that Apple will drop the price slightly, as it has done with the iPhone 16 Pro models. However, this seems unlikely as the standard iPhone 16 models are still selling for the same price. Since Apple produces its iPhone SE models in India, we might also see the iPhone SE 4 assembled locally.

iPhone SE 4 could finally mark a farewell to the large bezels
In terms of design, the iPhone SE 4 is expected to have a more modern, industrial look compared to the SE 3. It is likely that the thick bezel reminiscent of older iPhones will be eliminated and Face ID may be introduced in place of Touch ID. However, it is unclear whether the front will have a notch or Dynamic Island, like the premium models. The sides are expected to be aluminum, with a glass back similar to the iPhone 14 and iPhone 15 models.
