Apple is preparing for the anticipated release of the iPhone SE 4, expected to launch in April, according to a report.

Recent leaks from industry insider Sonny Dickson have shed light on the device’s design, revealing dummy units commonly used by accessory manufacturers.

Such units have a track record that reflects the final product.

Design overhaul

The iPhone SE 4 is set to feature a design reminiscent of the iPhone 14.

Key changes include a 6.1-inch notched display and the transition from Touch ID to Face ID for user authentication, bringing the SE 4 in line with Apple’s flagship offerings.

Leaked images also indicate a 48MP rear camera, which is notably larger than the one found on the iPhone SE 3.

The device may introduce an “Action Button,” a feature currently available only on higher-end models.

Advanced hardware

Internally, the iPhone SE 4 is expected to be equipped with either the A17 Pro or A18 chip, complemented by 8GB of RAM.

Such upgrades are likely to facilitate advanced AI capabilities and enhance performance, bringing it closer to Apple’s premium devices.
