Apple is making a buzz everywhere with its new launches. The most recent among them is the news about the new iPhone SE. Speculations are such that the launch of the much-anticipated iPhone SE will transpire by the beginning of 2025. However, the big news has snatched away the attention from the flagship iPhone 16 lineup that is happening next month. The rumours about the iPhone SE are in full swing following a late leak by Bloomberg’s Mark Gurman. As per the reports, the new iPhone SE 4 will encompass the exciting Apple Intelligence.
What does it mean to have Apple Intelligence?
To launch the iPhone SE 4 bundled up with Apple Intelligence is going to be a great deal for Apple. Mainly because Apple was straggling amid the contenders without anything much to flex. It is the innovation of Apple Intelligence that saved the tech leviathan from becoming off the table.
Apple’s suite of artificial intelligence, dubbed as Apple Intelligence was limited to the iPhone 15 Pro and Pro Max. This means that it was not accessible in the latest iPhone 15. But with the iPhone SE 4 coming by, these features will be exposed to a wider audience. The earlier reports also shed light on the guesswork that the new iPhone SE model will look similar to the iPhone 14. That’s something huge when you think of it this way; the iPhone SE is cheap but still has the style of the iPhone 14. Adding to the charm comes a greater performance. The perfect show stealer, right?
iPhone SE 4 with Apple Intelligence: What to expect?
When closely observed, one thing evident is that many Apple Intelligence features work on devices that require scores of computational powers. For the same reason, Apple is expected to bring the identical A18 processor and RAM upgrades to the iPhone 16 lineup. We are still in a quandary if along with the RAM configurations (mostly 8GB), Apple will bring the A18 chipset or an older processor into the iPhone SE lineup. The new model will sport a 6.06-inch OLED display with thin bezels. The new smartphone will have a 60Hz refresh rate.
It is rumoured to drop the circular Touch ID sensor in favour of a FaceID sensor like the current generation iPhone models. The next-generation iPhone SE model is expected to adopt the USB Type-C port instead of the Lightning connector. The iPhone SE which was last updated in 2022, now comes with a single camera setup at the back. More like its ancestors! (precisely, with the same vertical camera layout as the iPhone 16). This setup is to provide spatial video capturing to these devices. The sensor will be slightly different with a 48-megapixel lens instead of the 12-megapixel one on its predecessor.
iPhone SE 4 with Apple Intelligence- Price:
The iPhone SE which is going to get a complete overhaul by 2025 will be priced around the $500 mark. Let’s keep our eyes peeled to know the latest news about the iPhone SE 4.
A little about Apple Intelligence
At WWDC 2024, Apple introduced its initial Apple Intelligence features. The features highlighted a revamped Siri, Genmoji, Image Playground and an array of enhancements to its built-in apps. All the features aim at fostering the company’s advancements in artificial intelligence and machine learning. According to Gurman, Apple will likely build upon the current Apple Intelligence features and introduce more sophisticated capabilities, which they might charge later. However, it is predicted that the company will take at least three years to develop features that are worthy of a premium.
