The iPhone SE 4 is expected to go into mass production this year and could launch early next year.
According to MacRumors, the latest information from The Information said that Apple is ready to increase production of the fourth-generation iPhone SE in October this year. This means that Apple's new low-cost phone will not launch at the same time as the iPhone 16 series in September as previously predicted.

However, the official launch date of the iPhone SE 4 is still a mystery. The Information believes that the device could be launched before the Lunar New Year 2025, which is around January next year. However, based on the launch history of previous iPhone SE generations, the possibility of the iPhone SE 4 being announced in March 2025 is also very high.
Although the release date has not been confirmed, rumors about the iPhone SE 4's features have appeared quite a lot. Accordingly, the device will have a 6.1-inch OLED screen, Face ID, Action button and USB-C port, similar to the standard iPhone 14. However, the iPhone SE 4 is said to have only one rear camera and may use the same back panel manufacturing process as the iPhone 16.
With this leaked information, users can expect an iPhone SE 4 with a modern design, attractive features and affordable price. This promises to be a worthy choice for those who want to experience the iOS ecosystem without spending too much money.
Apple is just a few months away from officially launching the iPhone 16 series. At this point, the company is sure to be putting the final touches on the development of its new iPhone models. Once everything is in place, the company will be looking to launch the fourth-generation iPhone SE next.

So far, sources have focused on the possibility that the iPhone SE 4 will have a design similar to the iPhone 14 and a single camera on the back. However, the latest information shows that the design of the product will be based on the basic iPhone 16 frame - a detail that could be a big surprise.
Specifically, a Weibo user (China) has confirmed that the production process of the back of the iPhone SE 4 will be "identical" to the basic model of the iPhone 16 series. A recent report said that the basic iPhone 16 will have a redesigned camera module, with two cameras placed vertically instead of diagonally like previous generations of iPhone.

Although it is unclear why Apple decided to change the design direction, it is likely that the company decided to use the same manufacturing process for the iPhone 16's frame to reduce costs in the production process of the iPhone SE 4, thereby speeding up the production speed of this product model.
This is also the same design as on the iPhone 16 and 16 Plus duo this year.

The change could allow the iPhone SE 4 to feature a dual-camera setup for the first time in the history of the iPhone SE line, and following the lead of the iPhone 16 would mean a vertical dual-camera arrangement instead of the diagonal one on the current base iPhone 15. This new camera orientation would allow the iPhone SE 4 to offer spatial video recording capabilities for use on the Vision Pro.
Other rumors suggest the iPhone SE 4 could have Face ID, a USB-C port, and an Action button, though this information should be treated with some degree of skepticism, especially in the case of the Action button. The iPhone SE 3 now has Touch ID, a USB-Lightning port, 5G connectivity, an A15 Bionic chip, and a 4.7-inch LCD display. That’s truly revolutionary.

The question is, when will the iPhone SE 4 be released? Everything seems to indicate that Apple will introduce four new iPhone 16 models in September 2024, and the company will not launch the iPhone SE 4 until spring 2025.
However, there is still room for surprises. In February this year, a rumor suggested that the iPhone SE 4 could arrive alongside the iPhone 16 series with a change in nomenclature. This could pave the way for the launch of five new iPhone models.
