Apple engineers are finishing outlining their next two devices, as long-awaited as they are innovative: the fourth-generation iPhone SE and the iPad 11. In the last few hours, several possible release dates have been leaked, but now it seems that we have a more specific planned time for the arrival of both products, and we will tell you about it in this post.
According to the latest leaks, both devices would be ready for launch in spring 2025, more specifically before Aprilalthough they will not arrive together with iOS 18.3, the next operating system update expected this month or in early February.
Therefore, although we have the month of April as a deadline, it is most likely that they will arrive in March, so in just two months we could have official news about them.
What will the iPhone SE 4 of 2025 be like?
The iPhone SE 4 promises to be a revolution within Apple’s most economical range. According to rumors, this device, which some rumors say will be called iPhone 16E, will adopt a design similar to that of the iPhone 14, leaving behind the home button to incorporate a full screen with Face ID. In addition, it is expected to include the powerful A18 chip, which will allow support for Apple Intelligence, the artificial intelligence technology that the company is incorporating into its most recent devices.
One of the biggest novelties would be the implementation of the 5G modem developed internally by Apple, achieving the company’s desired technological independence from external suppliers such as Qualcomm. In addition, the photographic section will take a significant leap with a 48 MP rear camera and a 12 MP TrueDepth front camera, which promise to improve both the quality of photos and video calls.
iPad 11 news
In the case of the iPad 11, the leaks, for the moment, do not allow us to imagine as much as in the iPhone SE, but everything indicates that it will be an update that will not be far from its predecessor. It is speculated that it will include the A17 Pro or even the A18 chip, ensuring the support for Apple Intelligence and positioning itself as one of the most affordable options to enjoy Apple’s artificial intelligence capabilities.
Although details on the design and other features are still very limited, the device is likely to maintain a competitive price and is aimed at students and users looking for an efficient tablet for everyday use.
The launch of iOS 18.3 has not yet arrived and is already generating great expectations because several lines of code in its beta pointed to the arrival of new devices at the same time. This led to thoughts that the iPhone SE 4 and iPad 11 could be introduced alongside this update. However, renowned analyst Mark Gurman has denied this rumor, stating that Apple plans to launch both devices before the arrival of iOS 18.4, that is, between March and April.
This date would make all the sense in the world, since Apple usually chooses these dates to present and launch its entry-level products, so it is especially valid. With April as the deadline, there is not much left to know all the news. Will the iPhone SE 4 be the new king of budget mobile phones? Will the iPad 11 meet the needs of the most basic users? The answer is just around the corner.
