Ahead of iPhone SE 4 launch, Know How It Will Beat iPhone SE 3: Price, Battery, Chip, Camera
Apple iPhone SE 4 launch is set for today. Know how different it is from the iPhone SE 3 in terms of price, chip, camera, battery and more.

iPhone SE 4 launch is today and every Apple fan knows what it will likely be packing and how high the price may go, especially if the upgrades are really massive as expected. In effect, will the new smartphone be worth upgrading to from Android or for that matter from an older iPhone? So, when it comes to iPhone SE 4 vs iPhone SE 3, price, battery, chip, to camera, check out the difference.
The major difference that immediately grabs attention is the size. While iPhone SE 4 is expected to be launched with a 6.1 inch OLED display, the iPhone SE 3 had a 4.7 inch LCD screen. In effect, the iPhone SE series has just grown up to be counted among the "big", rather than the "mini", smartphones.
iPhone SE 4 price will most likely be very different from that of iPhone SE 3. iPhone SE 4 price may be anything between $479 to $499. The iPhone SE 3 price was $429 - small smartphone, small specs, small price.
Then there is the chip. iPhone SE 4 is expected to pack the latest chip on the iPhone 16. This is the A18 chip. iPhone SE 3 had A15 Bionic chip.
The iPhone SE 4 is likely to get 8GB RAM and 128 GB storage. Together, the chip, RAM and storage specs are expected to make possible the rollout of Apple Intelligence on iPhone SE 4. Needless to say, there was no AI on the iPhone SE 3. This will also ensure the performance of the iPhone SE 4 will be smoother and much faster even for gaming. iPhone SE 3 RAM was 4 GB and internal storage 64 GB.
The iPhone SE 4 may be borrowing critical hardware from the iPhone 16, but in terms of look and feel, it is expected to be like the Apple iPhone 14.
Then there is the charging port. iPhone SE 4 is expected to come with the USB-C port rather than the old Lightning cable port of the iPhone SE 3.
iPhone SE 4 camera is expected to get a massive boost. It will likely get a 48MP camera. The main iPhone SE 3 camera was 12MP.
Last, but not the least, iPhone SE 4 may get a battery that will be as powerful as that on the iPhone 16. This could be a 3,279 mAh power pack rather than 2018 mAh battery on the iPhone SE 3.
iPhone SE 4 will not have the home button. Instead, there will likely be Face ID. iPhone SE 3 had Touch-ID.
There is also the Apple-made 5G modem. It is expected to replace the one from Qualcomm that Apple usually uses. Notably, iPhone SE 3 is also 5G enabled.
So, what do you think? Will it be worth spending your money on iPhone SE 4 or should you wait for the iPhone 17, which will be launched during the Fall period?
The most notable thing to look at while making a decision is whether the iPhone SE 4 will meet your requirements adequately. If it does, then forget waiting for the pricey iPhone 17. In case there are no budget constraints, and you desire only the latest and most premium gadgets, you can wait for a few more months for iPhone 17 to launch.
