The possibility of an iPhone 4 SE has been circulating in the Apple rumor mill for awhile – but now Apple is finally admitting that something is coming. Today, Apple’s Tim Cook shared an obscure teaser with a February 19 launch date on X (formerly

simply reads: “Get ready to meet the newest member of the family. Wednesday, February 19.” The text is shared with a GIF of a shimmery metallic Apple logo.

The text and video don’t do much except indicate that some sort of new Apple product will be announced next week. The post on X doesn’t offer any hints as to what category the launch will even fall under, where that’s smartphones, tablets, computers, headphones or even VR headsets. (Although, the white circle behind the logo does remind me a bit of a MagSafe charger.)

Apple tends to launch its more budget-friendly iPhones in the spring – though historically March has been the typical timeframe for iPhone SE launches.

Current speculation has the iPhone SE 4 expected to still have only a single camera but to potentially axe the home button like the more advanced iPhones.

. That’s a safe guess with the M4 chip already available on the MacBook Pro, but again, Apple hasn’t offered any sort of hint at what specifically will launch on February 19.

While the rumors have been circulating for a while now, Cook’s post means something (or perhaps multiple things) is coming next week.
