Apple to Reveal iPhone SE 4 and PowerBeats Pro 2 Tomorrow
Apple could very well announce a new iPhone SE and the PowerBeats Pro headphones, if any, as soon as February 11, according to reporting by Bloomberg.
It’ll likely be a low-key announcement, not least because the company has not yet issued invites for an in-person or virtual event.
If an iPhone SE were extended, fourth generation, it would be Apple’s budget-friendly handsets. Also, this would be its first launch in the family since 2022.
At that time, the device, which was part of the wider iPhone 13 portfolio, sported a $429 price tag and featured specifications similar to the iPhone 8.
This includes a Touch ID fingerprint scanner, and has already been discontinued in the EU due to the Lightning port it carries; it does not adhere to the legislation of Common Charger Directive.
Like the rest of the Apple product line, a new iPhone SE almost certainly will sport a USB-C port. This entailed a device rumoured to have the same features as the iPhone 14 range, which came months after the last SE.
This refresh likely puts the nail in the coffin for any further Touch ID home button features for iPhone, as the increasingly adopted alternative is Face ID biometrics.
The fourth-gen iPhone SE is expected to be Apple Intelligence compatible with all of the iPhone 16 models and the iPhone 15 Pro. It may well end up being the first Apple device to sport an in-house modem, as the firm attempts to cut back on its reliance on third parties such as Qualcomm for chip production.
It is also believed that Apple shall unveil the PowerBeats Pro 2 alongside the iPhone SE. Almost six years after the first edition, the Beats-branded headphones would be released.
These new Bluetooth earbuds may be the first-ever Apple-branded headphones to provide built-in heart rate tracking, a further expansion of the company’s wearable health initiative beyond the Apple Watch.
