The upcoming iPhone SE 4, expected to be released in March 2025, is rumored to feature a significantly larger battery compared to its predecessor. The new model is anticipated to have a 3,279 mAh battery, which marks an increase from the 2,018 mAh battery found in the iPhone SE 3. This represents approximately a 60% increase in capacity, aligning the battery size more closely with that of the iPhone 14[1][2][4][6].
This upgrade is particularly notable as it addresses one of the major criticisms of previous iPhone SE models, which struggled with battery life. The larger battery combined with a new, more efficient chipsetâpotentially the A18 processorâshould enhance overall performance and extend usage time significantly[2][3][5]. Additionally, the design shift towards a form factor similar to the iPhone 14 will allow for this increased battery size[1][4].
In summary, yes, the iPhone SE 2025 is expected to have a larger battery, which should improve its performance and user experience considerably.

This charging speed means that the device would only reach about 36% charge in 30 minutes with its larger 3,279 mAh battery[1][2].
While there are hopes that the introduction of a USB-C port might lead to faster charging capabilities, it appears that Apple is maintaining the same charging speeds as seen in previous models like the iPhone 14, which also supports up to 20 watts[2][4]. Additionally, while there may be improvements in battery life due to the larger battery and more efficient chipset, the charging speed itself is not expected to see significant upgrades[1][2].
In summary, the iPhone SE 2025 will likely support 20-watt charging, which does not represent a notable increase in speed from earlier models.
