Apple is expected to announce a redesigned iPhone SE this week, potentially shaking up its budget-friendly lineup. Rumours point to a website announcement, likely Tuesday or Wednesday morning rather than a full event.

The new SE is anticipated to ditch the home button and thick bezels for a design similar to the iPhone 14, complete with Face ID in a notch and a larger 6.1-inch OLED screen. Other rumoured features include a customizable Action button, a single rear camera (possibly upgraded to 48 megapixels), and a USB-C port.
