Given that the device is largely based on the existing, base model iPhone 14, the fourth-gen iPhone SE will gain an OLED panel and support for Face ID, both of which have never been available on the iPhone SE until now.
iPhone SE 4 -- All the rumors about Apple's next budget-friendly device Apple's iPhone SE 4 could debut in February 2025.
Rather than resembling the massively outdated iPhone 8, the fourth-generation iPhone SE will feature a design derived almost entirely from the base model iPhone 14.
Some have said the device will use a modified iPhone 16 chassis, and there's even a bizarre claim of an alleged "iPhone 16E" marketing name, which would seemingly phase out the iPhone SE branding.
USB-C has been the standard connector for iPhones since the iPhone 15 and iPhone 15 Pro, so its inclusion in the iPhone SE 4 is an obvious choice, as it ensures compliance with EU regulations.
