• iPhone SE 4 was expected to include Face ID

iPhone SE 4 has been in the rumour mill for quite some time now. Apple is expected to announce the affordable iPhone model in the first quarter of next year with upgrades over the iPhone SE 2022. The iPhone SE 4 was earlier speculated to feature the same chassis as the base iPhone 14, but a fresh rumour coming out of China contradicts this claim. It suggests that the upcoming iPhone SE version is going to have some design similarities with the iPhone 16.

Tipster Fixed Focus Digital (translated from Chinese) on Weibo claims the iPhone SE 4’s back cover will be exactly the same as the upcoming vanilla iPhone 16. Previous leaks had indicated aniPhone 14-like design and rear chassis for the iPhone SE 4.

If the iPhone SE 4 follow the styling of the iPhone 16, we can then expect the former to get the vertical dual-lens rear camera configuration rumoured for the iPhone 16. The iPhone 16 family is expected to be unveiled in September. The next iPhone SE model, meanwhile, is expected to arrive in March next year.
