Analysts predict Apple will launch the iPhone SE 4 in March next year, with the highlight being the use of an Apple-designed 5G modem.
According to a note from Barclays analysts after a visit to component manufacturers in Asia, the iPhone SE 4 will be launched in late Q1/2025, which is around March. This timing coincides with the launch schedule of previous generations of iPhone SE.
iPhone SE 4 will launch with Apple's own 5G chip.
iPhone SE 4 is expected to have many significant upgrades, including:
- Larger 6.1 inch screen, thin bezel.
- Face ID replaces Touch ID.
- 8GB RAM, powerful A18 chip.
- Supports Apple Intelligence (AI).
- In particular, this low-cost iPhone model will use a 5G modem developed by Apple itself.
Apple equipping the iPhone SE 4 with its own 5G modem marks an important step forward in the company's technology self-sufficiency strategy. This move will help Apple reduce its dependence on Qualcomm, while also having better control over the quality and performance of its products.
In addition to the iPhone SE 4, Apple is also expected to use its 5G modem on the iPhone 17 Air, which is rumored to have the thinnest design ever.
With valuable upgrades and affordable price, iPhone SE 4 promises to be an attractive product, attracting the attention of many users.
