A recent leak on Weibo may have revealed information about the upcoming iPhone 16 series and the iPhone SE 4. Usually, Apple keeps details about its next iPhone models secret until they officially launch. So it’s important to note that these details are unconfirmed, so they should be taken with caution.
iPhone 16 Pro
The leak also provides some details about the iPhone 16 Pro. According to the leaked promo material, the design of the iPhone 16 Pro will be very similar to the iPhone 15 Pro. The most noticeable new feature might be a dedicated camera button on the lower right side of the phone.
The iPhone 16 Pro is rumored to be powered by the A18 Pro chip, which is an upgrade from the A17 chip in the iPhone 15 Pro. Additionally, the leak mentions that the iPhone 16 Pro’s ultrawide camera could have a 48-megapixel sensor with new “ultra-thin prism reflection technology.” This technology, supported by the A18 Pro’s neural network, might improve image quality and enable features like spatial video for Apple’s Vision Pro headset.
The iPhone 16 Pro is expected to come in several colors, including Black, White, Blue, and Yellow. There’s no mention of a Bronze color option, which might be exclusive to the Pro Max model.
According to rumors, the iPhone 16 series will be launched globally on September 10.
iPhone SE 4
The leaked information about the iPhone SE 4 suggests that this model might see a significant design change. According to the leak, the iPhone could feature a larger 6.1-inch display, similar to the iPhone 14. The leaked images show a notch at the top of the screen, where the Face ID system would be housed, indicating that this budget-friendly model could include Apple’s advanced facial recognition technology.
One of the most surprising details in the leak is that the iPhone SE 4 might come with the A18 Bionic chip, the same powerful processor expected to be used in the iPhone 16 series. If this turns out to be true, the iPhone would offer performance similar to the top-tier models at a lower price. The leak suggests that the iPhone SE 4 could be priced at approximately $599.
While the leak gives a good idea of what the front of the iPhone might look like, it doesn’t provide details about the back of the phone. However, rumors suggest that the iPhone might continue to have a single rear camera, similar to previous SE models.
The iPhone SE 4 is expected to be released in the first quarter of 2025.
