Apple Prepares iPhone SE 4 and iPad 11 Launch

Apple is reportedly preparing to launch the iPhone SE 4, possibly branded as iPhone 16e, and the iPad 11 in April 2025, aligning with the release of iOS 18.3. These devices are expected to feature notable upgrades, such as the A18 chipset, 8GB RAM, and a 6.1-inch OLED display for the iPhone SE 4, bringing them closer in performance to the iPhone 16 series. The iPhone SE 4 is speculated to have a design resembling the iPhone 14, featuring a USB-C port, a 48-megapixel rear camera, and improved battery life. The iPad 11 upgrade is expected to integrate Apple Intelligence with the A18 processor. Despite initial rumors of a January release, reliable sources, including Mark Gurman, indicate April as the launch month if Apple adheres to its timeline. This launch could also be pivotal for Apple's compliance with EU regulations requiring USB-C ports on new devices.
