According to a recent report from Bloomberg, California-based tech giant Apple is reportedly gearing up to unveil a new generation of the iPhone SE next year.
Additionally, a report from 9to5Mac has provided intriguing insights into what consumers can expect from the upcoming iPhone SE 4. One of the standout features of the iPhone SE 4 will likely be Apple's debut 5G modem, the publication said.
According to the report, after acquiring Intel's modem division in 2019 in an effort to move away from dependence on Qualcomm's modems, the company faced numerous challenges with its prototype modems. However, it seems that Apple is expected to integrate its own 5G modem into this new device. Known by the codename 'Centauri', the modem will likely be ambitious, supporting not only 5G, but also Wi-Fi, Bluetooth and GPS functionalities.
The report also highlights that the upcoming model could have a more modern design, similar to the iPhone 14. It could possibly have flat edges and an OLED display with a possible notch at the top. Leaks also reveal that the iPhone SE 4, codenamed V59, will have a 1170 x 2532 screen resolution, identical to that of the 6.1-inch iPhone 14.
The new iPhone SE could also reportedly include Face ID technology, meaning the end of the Home Button with Touch ID. However, the Dynamic Island feature will likely remain exclusive to Apple's more expensive models.
It is expected that Apple will aim to equip the new SE with advanced Apple Intelligence functionalities, made possible by the inclusion of the A18 chip paired with 8 GB of RAM. This will be the same variant of the latest system-on-chip (SoC) used in the entry-level iPhone 16, with a 5-core GPU.
In terms of camera, the iPhone SE 4 could inherit the 48MP wide camera and 12MP front camera from the iPhone 15 and 15 Plus. However, it appears that no ultra-wide-angle or telephoto lenses will be included. Instead, Apple is expected to use the 48MP sensor to launch the new SE capable of achieving 2x “optical” zoom.
