Designers have created mockups to help viewers visualize its potential design features.
An exciting leak showed what appears to be rear shells for an upcoming iPhone model this week, which may belong to the 17 Air.

Next-Gen iPhone SE Rumors: Dynamic Island Design and Uncertain Naming
Renowned mobile phone leaker Evan Blass has revealed details about upcoming updates for the iPhone SE, iPad, and iPad Air, with the most intriguing revelations focusing on the fourth-generation iPhone SE. While a recent rumor suggested the new model might be named “iPhone 16E,” leaked code-shared by Blass refers to it as “iPhone SE (4th Gen).” Though this could be a placeholder, it casts doubt on the potential “16E” naming strategy.
One of the standout rumors involves the design of the iPhone SE 4. A leaked image of the device hints at the inclusion of a Dynamic Island, replacing the traditional notch at the top of the display.
