Rumors are growing about the iPhone SE, one of Apple's most stable and perhaps least exciting products, but still indispensable. The latest information on the iPhone SE 4, which is expected to be released in 2024 or 2025, is about the battery of the product.
*Chain analyst Ming-Chi Kuo has changed his views on the 2023 iPhone SE 4 development process several times, recently hinting that the product will be released as a "minor modification of the iPhone 14". The information disclosed to Macrumors by an anonymous source overlapped with Mr. Guo's previous statement. The iPhone SE 4 is expected to inherit many of the features of the iPhone 14 and include innovations, especially when it comes to batteries.
Production and internal documentation of the prototype indicate that the iPhone SE 4 will use a battery designated as A2863. This battery is the same as the one used in the iPhone 14, with a significant increase in capacity compared to the existing iPhone SE 3 battery. The iPhone SE 3 has a battery capacity of 2,018 mAh, while the iPhone 14 has a battery capacity of 3,279 mAh. Higher capacity and a new chipset can significantly improve overall battery life.
According to previous rumors, the iPhone SE 4;It is expected to come with action buttons, USB-C ports, and other features very similar to the iPhone 14. If it launches in late 2024 or early 2025, these features and specs may be old enough to be used for budget-friendly models.
Although the rumor is anonymous and unverifiable**, it is still considered possible because it is consistent with information previously shared by Kuo.
The current iPhone SE is considered to be the last Apple smartphone to come with Touch ID. If the rumors are true, the new design would be a major upgrade to the $429 device, with features like Face ID and an OLED display.
