Apple is rumored to be making significant design changes to its upcoming iPhone SE 4, drawing inspiration from the iPhone 16 series. According to a leak reported by Macrumors, via Weibo-based leaker 'Fixed Focus Digital', the iPhone SE 4 will adopt some of the design elements of the iPhone 16.
Manufacturing and Design Updates The leak suggests that the manufacturing process for the iPhone SE 4’s backplate will mirror that of the iPhone 16 series. Previous rumors indicated that the SE 4 would retain a design similar to the iPhone 14, with modifications for a single 48MP rear camera. However, the latest information points to Apple incorporating a vertical camera layout in the SE 4, similar to the iPhone 16, reminiscent of the iPhone X or iPhone 12 models, which might allow for spatial video capture.
Expected Features and Launch Details The iPhone SE 4 is expected to launch next year, while the iPhone 16 series is anticipated to debut in September. The SE 4 will likely be priced around $500 and is rumored to feature a 6.1-inch screen, Face ID, a display notch, a USB-C port, and an action button.
