Wed Feb 19 16:00:00 UTC 2025: ## Apple to Unveil Revamped iPhone SE 4 (or iPhone 16E?) on Wednesday

**CUPERTINO, CA** – Apple is set to launch its highly anticipated iPhone SE 4 (potentially rebranded as the iPhone 16E) this Wednesday, marking a significant upgrade to the budget-friendly model. The event, hosted by CEO Tim Cook, will be livestreamed globally at 10:00 AM PT (11:30 PM IST).

The new device boasts a major redesign, featuring a 6.1-inch OLED display – a first for the SE line – along with a flat-edge design reminiscent of the iPhone 13. Other key improvements include Apple’s own 5G modem, the powerful A18 chip (matching the iPhone 16 series), and Face ID support. The phone is expected to offer 8GB of RAM and storage options ranging from 128GB to 512GB. Improved camera capabilities, including a 12MP rear camera with enhanced Night Mode and Smart HDR, and 4K video recording at 60fps, are also anticipated. The device will also include IP67 water and dust resistance and a USB-C port with fast charging.

While the rumored price is $499 in the US (with regional variations), a potential rebranding to iPhone 16E could lead to higher costs. Pre-orders are expected to begin February 23, 2025, with deliveries starting March 1, initially in major markets like the US, Canada, UK, and India. The upgrade represents a substantial leap from the previous SE model, offering flagship features at a potentially competitive price point.
