Apple plans to release a new iPhone SE with Apple Intelligence support, new iPad Air models, and an updated Magic Keyboard for the iPad Air at some point "early next year," according to a report today from Bloomberg's Mark Gurman.
The next iPhone SE will have a similar design as the iPhone 14, including an edge-to-edge screen with a notch, according to Gurman. This means the device will likely support Face ID, whereas the current iPhone SE has a Touch ID button. As mentioned, he also expects the device to support Apple Intelligence, which is currently available on the iPhone 15 Pro, iPhone 15 Pro Max, and any of the new iPhone 16 models.
The new iPad Air models will apparently have "internal improvements," but Gurman did not provide any specific details. He also expects an updated version of the Magic Keyboard for both the 11-inch and 13-inch iPad Air, with some of the new features previously introduced on the latest iPad Pro version of the keyboard.
March and April are common months for Apple to announce new iPhone SE and iPad Air models, with a virtual event or press releases both possibilities.
Apple last updated the iPhone SE in March 2022, while the iPad Air lineup was last updated in May this year with the M2 chip and a first-ever 13-inch model.

Just want to say thank you for keeping this article short. Seems like every news article posted on MacRumors is at least five paragraphs written like the writer is getting paid per word, and then there is even more fluff reiterating past news with multiple hyperlinks linking to previous articles. An article like this that is straight to the point is refreshing.
Edit: It seems I spoke too soon. A few minutes after I posted this, the article length was padded out with more information and is now five paragraphs… but my point above still stands.
