The next generation ofApple’s budgetiPhone, theiPhone SE, has been tipped for significant upgrades – and the latest leak suggests it won’t be getting a significant price hike. A new leak on X suggests that Apple’s intention is to keep the price of the iPhone SE below the $500/£500 mark, and ideally at the same $429/£429 as the current model.
While the price isn’t expected to rise significantly, the specification looks like it’ll be a big step up compared to the current model. Trade siteThe Informationreports that the redesigned iPhone SE, planned for an early 2025 release, will resemble the iPhone 14, will have a larger display and may finally make the move to an OLED screen too.
One reason for the reported move to OLED is that the panels for the incoming SE use the same parts as the ones in the iPhone 13 and 14, so manufacturers can use the same tools to make them without having to spend money on new equipment. That means they’ll cost considerably less than the panels for the iPhone 15 range, enabling Apple to add OLED to its budget iPhone without sending the price tag beyond its target.
What to expect from the 2025 iPhone SE 4
The rumoured specifications for the iPhone SE 4 include Face ID and a notched display, and possibly the same Action button that’s coming to the iPhone 16 range. USB-C is a given, and hopefully the move to OLED and a newer, more efficient processor will mean improved battery life too.
