Anticipation Grows for the New iPhone SE Release
There is still no confirmed launch date for the fourth-generation iPhone SE. According to Mark Gurman from Bloomberg, in a recent tweet, he stated that an announcement is expected by next week. Previously, Gurman predicted that the launch might occur this week but as of now, the schedule appears uncertain once again.
Gurman has also mentioned that Apple has plans for other announcements shortly. A “smaller announcement” is set to take place tomorrow. Additionally, Apple representatives linked to Vision Pro are engaging with media outlets regarding another forthcoming announcement.
Upcoming Product Briefings and Launches
The highly anticipated new iPhone SE could be officially unveiled next week during Apple’s scheduled product briefings. Alongside this event, a smaller announcement will occur tomorrow followed by discussions around the Vision Pro device on Friday.
The M4 MacBook Air’s arrival seems imminent too; Gurman indicated it may debut within weeks. However, specific timing remains ambiguous as previous rumors have circulated about its release being imminent for some time now.

The Impending Transition Away from Home Buttons
A significant shift is on the horizon as Apple prepares to phase out its long-standing home button feature across its devices after nearly two decades.
