The new SE will definitely not be small any more, of course we don't yet have the official announcement, but these days the rumours at this late stage are typically prety accurate and the fourth generation SE has I believe a 6.1 inch screen and will be basically the same size as an iPhone 14 or 15 and it will also no longer have a home button and Touch Id but use Face Id instead. One main difference is the single 48 MP camera, an iPhone 16 has a dual lens camera system and the 16 Pro has a triple lens system. It also sounds like it will not have the camera button, not sure as to whether the mute switch remains or will be replaced with a programmable button llike on the 16 and 16 Pro.

Essentially for a blind user not interested in taking pictures is there an advantage to the latest iPhone camera system that have Macro and telephoto capabilities, as these are not likely to be in a new lower cost iPhone. Can an AIRA or Be My Eyes agent even take advantage of the multiple lenses on iPhones, or do these have to be controlled by the iPhone user. Also, has anybody that has a iPhone PRO model regularly used the LIDAR functions to solve issues? I am especially interested in anybody that got an iPhone 15 or 16 after having an iPhone SE if they felt the additional cost provided any useful features.

However, he has teased an upcoming product launch scheduled for Wednesday, February 19, 2025. In a recent post on X (formerly Twitter), Cook stated, “Get ready to meet the newest member of the family,” accompanied by an Apple logo animation.  While the specific product has not been confirmed, industry analysts widely anticipate that this event will unveil the next-generation iPhone SE. Expected features for the new model include: • A design similar to the iPhone 14, featuring a notched display and the removal of the home button in favor of Face ID. • A larger 6.1-inch OLED screen, replacing the previous 4.7-inch display. • Transition to a USB-C port, aligning with recent regulatory requirements. • Introduction of a customizable Action button. • An upgraded single rear camera with enhanced sensors. • Internally, the device is expected to feature an A18 chip, 8GB of RAM, and Apple’s first in-house 5G modem, though it may not support mmWave 5G. • The starting price is anticipated to be around $500, with 128GB of base storage. There has been speculation about a potential rebranding to “iPhone 16E,” but it is more likely that the SE branding will continue.  Please note that these details are based on industry rumors and leaks, and the official specifications will be confirmed during Apple’s event on February 19.

If you are wondering why I might want to do that that is because right now I’m just not able to face Face ID and deal with setting it up.

Obviously just a rumor, but I have been holding on to my slowish iPhone SE second generation so that I can have a full choice of latest phones. Is there a blind users buyers guide to the iPhones to help decide if: 1. LIDAR add aa real advantage. 2. Do newer cameras improve OCR 3. Do newer camera help with Be My Eyes and AIRA? 4. Should I get a cheaper phone and spend the money saved on a pair of smart glasses? I know folks love their meta glasses, but I would rather pay a little more and not have Meta capturing my life, but alternatives still appear to be in the rumor stage. Obviously, until the specifications of the SE are out no decision can be made. My main complaints with my current phone is it takes about 5 seconds for a Siri response and I don’t believe it is my network, and 40 minutes of walking navigation takes about 60% of my battery life.
