Based solely on the rumors about what's changing with this particular model, the iPhone SE 4 sounds like a pretty big deal. On the hardware side alone, Apple is likely to ditch the dated iPhone 8-era design in favor of more modern iPhone 14 -esque look, with an edge-to-edge screen interrupted only by a notch.

The new model, reportedly codenamed V59, is expected to introduce Apple's first in-house cellular modem, replacing Qualcomm's hardware, and add Face ID for the first time – finally removing the physical home button.

Apple’s eagerly awaited return to the ultra-competitive mid-range smartphone market with a new iPhone SE could happen in the next week.
