Apple’s next generation of iPhones is usually kept under wraps until their official launch. However, a recent leak on Weibo (via Smartprix) seems to have revealed details about both the upcoming iPhone 16 series and the iPhone SE 4.
The authenticity of these leaks is still unconfirmed, so we advise you to take these details with a pinch of salt.
iPhone SE 4
The leaked promo material for the iPhone SE 4 suggests a significant design upgrade. The phone is shown to feature a larger 6.1-inch display, similar to the iPhone 14, with a notch at the top that will house the Face ID.
The biggest surprise, however, could be the inclusion of the A18 Bionic chip, the same chipset expected to power the iPhone 16 series. If this turns out to be true, the iPhone SE 4 would offer flagship-level performance at an attractive price point. The leak hints at a price of around 4199 Yuan (~ $599).
While the front design might mirror the iPhone 14, the leak doesn’t provide details about the back of the phone. Rumors suggest it might keep the single rear camera setup found in previous SE models.
iPhone 16 Pro
The leaked marketing material for the iPhone 16 Pro reveals a design that is mostly unchanged from the iPhone 15 Pro. The most noticeable difference might be the addition of a dedicated camera button on the lower right side.
Under the hood, the iPhone 16 Pro is rumored to be powered by the A18 Pro chip, a logical upgrade from its predecessor.
The leak also shows that the phone’s ultrawide camera will feature a 48-megapixel ultra-wide-angle sensor with “ultra-thin prism reflection technology.” The technology allegedly supported by the A18 Pro’s neural network engine, could improve image quality and possibly support features like spatial video for Apple’s Vision Pro headset.
Color options for the iPhone 16 Pro are rumored to include Black, White, Blue, and Yellow. There’s no mention of a Bronze option here, so we assume that may likely be reserved for the Pro Max model.
The iPhone 16 line will launch on September 10 globally, if a recent report is to be believed. The iPhone SE 4, on the other hand, is expected in the first quarter of 2025.
