Apple would be preparing to launch a new generation of its iPhone SE, its most economical phone model, with several innovations in design and functionality. According to reports, this device would abandon the traditional home button and adopt Face ID as a unlocking method, which would mean a larger screen compared to previous versions.
One of the most notable advancements would be the incorporation of Apple Intelligence, powered by the A18 chip, which would significantly improve performance and user experience. This change reflects the company’s intention to equip its most affordable line with more advanced capabilities, bringing it closer to high-end models.
According to Bloomberg analyst Mark Gurman, this new iPhone SE is expected to be launched in early 2025, although the company has not yet officially confirmed the exact date.
The next iPhone will be launched in early 2025.
The upcoming iPhone SE, expected in early 2025, will bring significant improvements in both design and functionality. The most notable change is the removal of the iconic home button, which would be replaced with a full-screen design featuring Face ID, similar to the iPhone 14.
Additionally, for the first time in the SE line, it will feature a design with an OLED screen. However, unlike the main iPhone models, the iPhone SE will only have a single rear camera.
This new model would be powered by Apple’s A18 chip, allowing for integration with features using Apple Intelligence.
It has not yet been confirmed whether it will maintain its current base price or if it will increase due to the improvements in design and components.
Apple Intelligence is a set of AI-based features that Apple will integrate into its devices.
This technology will allow users to perform tasks such as generating custom emojis from text descriptions or asking Siri to automatically organize photo albums and schedule important events on the calendar.
The capability behind these innovations comes from the A17 Pro, A18, and A18 Pro chips. According to Bloomberg analyst Mark Gurman, the complete version of Apple Intelligence is expected to be released with the iOS 18.4 update, scheduled for mid-October 2024.

With Apple Intelligence, users of the iPhone 15 Pro, iPhone 15 Pro Max, and later models will be able to integrate ChatGPT with Siri, as long as they grant the OpenAI chatbot permission to access their data. Additionally, the artificial intelligence will provide a detailed summary when searching for information about a specific contact.
Another important feature arriving with iOS 18 will be the default option to edit text, which will be added to the copy and paste menu, allowing for quick editing directly from the device.
Users will also be able to create new emojis from text descriptions. For example, if they request an emoji of a frog with a cowboy hat, the AI will generate a custom GenEmoji based on that request.
Finally, the inbox of the email application will include automatic summaries of messages, which, according to Apple, will allow users to understand content more efficiently and quickly.
Among the highlighted new features, the ability to record calls and automatically generate a transcription that will be stored in the iPhone Notes app is included.
This tool allows users to record their phone conversations without the need for external apps, similar to a feature that is already available on some Android devices.
Additionally, the option to send and receive satellite messages will allow the sending of texts via iMessage and SMS without the need to connect to mobile networks or WiFi. This technology uses the iPhone’s satellite connectivity and integrates into the Messages app, automatically connecting to the nearest satellite in areas with limited coverage.
