iPhone SE 4: New Leak Points to Dynamic Island and OLED Display
The iPhone SE 4 has been the subject of numerous leaks, and the latest details shared by tipster Evan Blass suggest that Apple’s budget-friendly iPhone might adopt some flagship features. Blass’s private social media post hints at the inclusion of Dynamic Island, a design element that first appeared on the iPhone 14 Pro series and has since become standard on the iPhone 15 and iPhone 16 lines. This marks a significant design shift for the SE series, moving away from its traditional thick bezels and home button.
Expected Features:
-
Display: 6.1-inch OLED
-
Camera: 48MP rear camera
-
Face ID: Supported
-
Processor: A18 chip
-
RAM: 8GB
-
Connectivity: Latest Apple 5G modem
These updates position the iPhone SE 4 as a major contender in the budget smartphone market, narrowing the gap between Apple’s affordable line-up and its flagship models.
Potential Pricing: With the current iPhone SE starting at $429 (Rs 47,600 in India), the added features may increase the cost slightly. However, the iPhone SE 4 is expected to remain the most affordable iPhone.
Launch Timeline: According to analyst Ming-Chi Kuo, the iPhone SE 4 could launch in March or April 2025, aligning with past SE release cycles. This timeline leaves ample room for further speculation and anticipation.

Additional Leaks: Blass also mentioned updates for Apple’s iPad line-up. Rumoured iPad Air models (11-inch and 13-inch) with the M3 chip, and a new entry-level iPad featuring the A17 Pro chip with 8GB RAM, may also be unveiled in early 2025. This suggests Apple’s product refresh in the first half of the year could be more expansive than just the SE model.
