- The iPhone SE 4 could change its name
- New iPhone 16E name rumored
- Expect a release around March
The next iPhone announced by Apple is expected to be the iPhone SE 4, probably around March, but the latest rumors suggest that the phone will have another name when it is officially introduced to the world.
Tipsters Majin Bu and FIxed Focus Digital say the phone will be called the iPhone 16E, which of course ties in with the name of the four iPhone 16 phones already available, released by Apple in September.

What makes this rumor more likely is that Apple hasn’t been afraid to change the nicknames it gives its iPhones over the years. In previous years we had the iPhone X, the iPhone XS and the iPhone XR, for example.
Read our iPhone SE (2022) to catch up on what the latest version of this phone has to offer. The idea is that you get some key iPhone components, plus the latest iOS software updates, for a more mid-range price.
The next version of the device should bring with it some notable improvements, including an OLED display, the introduction of Face ID for the first time on an SE phone, and an increase of up to 8GB of RAM, meaning the phone will be able to support Intelligence features. from Apple.
