Apple is gearing up to release a range of new products early next year, with the iPhone SE 4 being the standout offering due to its support for the Apple Intelligence feature set.
According to a statement from renowned journalist Mark Gurman on Bloomberg, the upcoming iPhone SE 4 will feature a design akin to the iPhone 14, indicating the removal of the Home button in favor of Face ID support. Notably, it will come equipped with the Apple Intelligence feature set, boasting 8 GB of RAM and an A18 processor chip, or an equivalent to the A17 Pro.
The aim of the iPhone SE 4 is to replace its 2022 predecessor and attract consumers with budget constraints. Currently, the iPhone SE 3 is available for $429, a compelling price for Apple enthusiasts with limited budgets, especially considering that Android competitors with comparable power often come at lower price points.
The iPhone SE 4’s full-front screen will mark a significant advancement for the iPhone SE line. Apple’s partners are set to commence production of the iPhone SE 4, identified by the internal code V59.
Additionally, Apple will launch new versions of the iPad Air tablet computer, with internal codes J607 and J636, focusing on performance and feature enhancements. Apple will also introduce Magic Keyboard accessories tailored for the 11-inch and 13-inch iPad Air models, allowing users to access advanced iPad Pro functions at a more affordable price.
Furthermore, a new iPad mini version bearing the code J410 is expected to be unveiled by Apple before the end of 2024, though the specific release date is yet to be determined. Apple also plans to equip products such as the Mac mini, MacBook Pro, and iMac with M4 processors to offer advanced artificial intelligence (AI) features.
