Several of the technical specifications of Apple’s upcoming iPhone SE 4 may have just been leaked to the public. The leaks largely focus on AI-based camera features and how the handset may resemble the iPhone 13 more than the iPhone 14.
The leaker, Nguyen Phi Hung, who has no Apple-related track record, has stated that the camera will feature “AI photography.” Apple is currently investing heavily in Machine Learning and applying this to photos taken on the iPhone which seems credible.
The leaker also claims that, unlike at least many previous rumors, the iPhone SE 4 will resemble the iPhone 13 rather than the iPhone 14. It’s not an especially significant difference, though, as both models came before Apple moved the Face ID notch to the Dynamic Island.
It’s thought that the front may feature a Face ID notch, which the rear, according to the new leak, will more resemble the iPhone XR with its single camera.
The leaker also says that the camera will not support night mode, but will support 1080p cinematic mode. Previously, cinematic mode has required the use of at least two cameras, so it’s not clear how it will be accomplished.
The leak also repeated a previous rumor that the screen would be a 6.1-inch OLED display, marking the first time this technology has been used in the iPhone SE.
Other new details highlighted a potential 6GB of RAM, as opposed to the 4GB of previous models.
The processor is said to be Apple’s A16 Bionic, which was introduced with the iPhone 14 Pro. If this is correct, it means two years after the iPhone SE 3 was released, this next model is getting a processor that is only one year newer.
The iPhone SE 3 shipped in March 2022.
Stay tuned for additional details as they become available.
