iPhone SE 4: Action Button And USB-C Port Integration Expected, Reports

Apple , the Cupertino-based tech giant, is reportedly gearing up for the launch of its fourth-generation iPhone SE. This anticipated model is rumoured to introduce several notable features, including an Action Button akin to the iPhone 15 Pro and a USB-C port, alongside other significant enhancements.

Leaker "Unknownz21" has shared fresh insights about Apple's forthcoming budget-friendly iPhone, reaffirming that its design will draw inspiration from the ‌iPhone 14‌, as reported by MacRumors . Notably, the iPhone SE 4 is projected to feature a USB-C port, suggesting a shift from previous connectors. Additionally, contrary to prior speculation regarding the retention of a Touch ID button, the smartphone is expected to incorporate Face ID.

The report further outlines that the iPhone SE 4 is set to differentiate itself by adopting an Action Button, a feature akin to the iPhone 15 Pro and ‌iPhone 15 Pro‌ Max, setting it apart from the standard ‌iPhone 15‌ and ‌iPhone 15‌ Plus models.

As disclosed by MacRumors, the fourth-generation ‌iPhone SE‌ will likely maintain a single rear camera configuration, in line with the current model's setup. Notably, manufacturers are reportedly vying for orders to supply Apple with OLED display panels for this upcoming version, marking a significant upgrade from the current LCD screen.

The forthcoming ‌iPhone SE‌ is anticipated to stand as one of the early adopters of Apple's much-discussed proprietary 5G modem. However, its official release is not expected until 2025.

In related news, Bloomberg 's Mark Gurman has hinted that the Apple iPhone 15 launch event is tentatively scheduled for Tuesday, September 12. The event is projected to introduce the iPhone 15 lineup along with updates to the Apple Watch Series 9, the introduction of Apple Watch Ultra 2 models, the unveiling of iOS 17, and more.

According to reports, if the ‌iPhone 15‌ models are unveiled on September 12 and Apple adheres to its customary timeline, pre-orders for these models are likely to commence on Friday, September 15, with the official launch following on Friday, September 22. It's speculated that this year's Apple iPhone 15 Pro models might bear a higher price tag in comparison to the current offerings.
