Latest iPhone SE 4 Dummy Units Reveal Three Missing Rumored Features

With Apple's fourth-generation iPhone SE launch inching ever closer, new alleged dummy models have emerged online that give us further clarification on some of the details of the device.

Leaker Majin Bu shared these images on X (Twitter), along with a short video showing off the mockups, which are non-functional devices that case makers create based on information that leaks out of Apple's partner factories.

There have been conflicting rumors about whether the next iPhone SE will have a Dynamic Island or a notch, but the latter is looking increasingly likely. Despite the Island claims, the black and white mockups depicted show the older notch design with the selfie camera just left of center, backing up rumors that the device is largely based on the iPhone 14. There's also a single-lens camera on the back, as expected, along with a glass back and a aluminum band.


Suggestions that the iPhone SE 4 could get an Action Button or Camera Control button also appear off the mark, based on these mockups, which are very similar to images previously shared by leaker Sonny Dickson.

Along with the visible features from the dummy model, the ‌iPhone SE 4‌ is expected to include a faster A18 chip, an Apple-designed modem chip, and 8GB RAM – the minimum amount of memory required for Apple Intelligence. The camera is expected to be the same 48-megapixel Wide camera used in the current ‌iPhone 16‌.

Apple is expected to debut the next ‌iPhone SE‌ sometime in March or April, and it will continue to be the company's lowest-cost device. It could go up in price slightly, but Apple is said to be aiming to keep it below $500.

Notch, 60 Hz, probably 128 GB. Let's see how many more years Apple is gonna get away with this.

Edit: I'll exclude the US from this since people seem to be obsessed with the whole blue bubble thing apparently and since Apple is a local brand.
People on here seem to forget the average non techie consumer doesn't care about the screen refresh rate and they probably dont even know what 60hz/120hz is! lol

If it's really going to be under 500 dollars then even with those downsides this will be the best sub 500 dollar phone by a mile.

If only they also sold it in some smaller perhaps mini sized form-factor. They could advertise it as $399 then sell this regular one for $499.

An incredibly tempting loss-leader that will sell as many units as the Vision Pro, but will appease all of those mewling small phone aficionados (like me).

And yes, without all the lumps and fiddly bits on the back this could be the best looking iPhone since the 4
