Rumors about Apple's potential launch of a fourth-generation iPhone SE have been swirling for quite some time now. To put things in perspective, information regarding the possible iPhone SE 4 first surfaced over two years ago when it was still known as the iPhone SE 2023. Despite its various drawbacks in comparison to other modern iPhones, Apple has continued to promote the iPhone SE (2022) (currently $184.95 - renewed on Amazon).
Current Status of iPhone SE
At this point, the anticipated new iPhone SE feels almost like a myth. Recently, a new rumor has popped up suggesting that Apple might even eliminate the 'SE' label entirely. According to a leaker on Weibo, Fixed Focus Digital, there's speculation that the device could be launched as the 'iPhone 16e' instead.
What Does the 'e' Mean?
Sadly, what the 'e' signifies is still unclear. However, it seems this model would follow in the tradition of the iPhone 5c and iPhone XR, serving as a budget-friendly option alongside the current iPhone lineup. Recent gossip suggests that the iPhone 16e might act as a sort of patchwork device when it is expected to arrive in spring 2025, utilizing components from several recent flagship models.
