L’iPhone SE 4could cost as little as $429 in the United States, which would equate to a price of529 eurosat our place. At the same time, the newiPhone 16(probably Pro) could start in store from $999, the price of an iPhone 15 Pro today, equivalent to1 229 euros. This information comes from a source who relayed it on the social network Twitter. According to it, the folding iPhone would also cost at least $1,499, with a resolution of 390 pixels per inch. For comparison, this is also the price of the thirteen-inch MacBook Air M3 with ten-core GPU, sixteen gigabytes of RAM and a 512 GB SSD, billed at 1,759 euros in France.
Of course, it is important to remember that these prices should be considered with caution. Indeed, Apple does not confirm anything about such future products before their proper presentation through a press release or a keynote organized with great fanfare at the Steve Jobs Theater. Let us point out, however, that the supposed 529 euros of the fourth generation iPhone SE makes rather sense to us. And for good reason: this is also the price of the third generation, still available in the Apple Store today. The next one should abandon the fingerprint sensor in favor of face recognition with Face ID, and its design could be inspired by that of the iPhone 14 with a notch on the front.
A folding iPad more expensive than MacBooks?
Among the other data that we can draw from these new leaks, another amount raises questions: that of the possible folding iPad, which could reach no less than 2,399 dollars. The MacBook Pro is sometimes offered at this price in the United States, against2 919 eurosin France with the same configuration. You would therefore have to pay almost 3,000 euros to afford the future flexible tablet, especially if inflation continues to rise. The iPad Pro is already available at a price around this amount, but with maximum configuration.
If the folding iPad Pro will perhaps be so expensive, it is in particular because of its screenOLED. This technology has also been present on iPad Pro recently, with the arrival of the M4 models. The OLED system theoretically offers better contrast than the LCD already displayed on the front of many Apple tablets. But with subcontractors, the manufacturer must pay more to afford the solution. Hence the very high price on the consumer side, probably.
iPhone SE 4 Price Rumors:
– The US launch price will either remain at $429 or see an increase of around 10%.
– Even if the price increases, the maximum target is to stay within $499.https://t.co/fROQe2eabr

Potential release schedule
The folding iPad will certainly not arrive for several years, with the most optimistic banking on a presentation in 2026 even if this still seems too early to us. The fourth generation iPhone SE, on the other hand, could indeed be released as analysts predict by next year. The cellphone could be powered by an A17 chip, but this remains to be confirmed. Most of the rumors on the other hand rely on a more imposing 6.1 inch screen versus4.7 inches with the current third-generation iPhone SE.
The iPhone 16 andthe iPhone 16 Proshould for their part arrive in September, during a conference, if Apple does not deviate from its habits in this area. Our source of the day also mentions the case of an iPad mini, but with an OLED panel. It is therefore likely that this is not the model expected to also arrive at the end of the year, at the same time as a potential “classic” eleventh generation iPad. Rumors which, again, remain to be verified in the future.
- Fourth-generation iPhone SE could be priced the same as third-generation iPhone SE
- The folding iPad would be as expensive as a MacBook Pro, according to the same source
- These devices will not see the light of day for several months and are not yet confirmed by the manufacturer
