L’iPhone SE constitutes the flagship product of the iPhone range with a voice now positioned by 559 euros. The model has recently been updated, at least for the internal components with the integration of a mobile processor Apple A15 and the arrival of 5G compatibility.
On the outside, the smartphone remains the same and retains the style inherited from the iPhone 8 with a mobile display 4.7 inchesTouch ID fingerprint reader housed in the Home button on the front, large black bar above the screen to house the speaker and the front photo sensor and single rear camera.
At a time when the iPhone 14 now offering screen diagonals from 6.1-inch to 6.7-inch, the next iPhone SE (or iPhone SE 4 or iPhone SE 4th generation) is also expected to experience an evolution.
From iPhone 8 to iPhone XR
It is said that he too passes to a 6.1 inch display while retaining an LCD panel (while recent iPhones now all have an OLED screen). In fact, it should model itself on theiPhone XR for its exterior design.
iPhone XR, the future of the iPhone SE?
Analyst Ross Young, of the company DSCC (Display Supply Chain Consultants), anticipated this development and mentioned the possibility of a punch for the front photosensor, which could have led to the integration of the Dynamic island presented on the iPhone 14 Pro and iPhone 14 Pro Max and which should be extended to the entire range from the iPhone 15.
Touch ID again?
However, the latest unofficial information available suggests rather than the new iPhone SE 4 will have a notch. Will the latter be equipped with TrueDepth sensors for Face ID facial recognition? for iPad Mini and iPad Air tablets.
This would almost completely free up the front for the mobile display and bring the overall style closer to current Apple standards. Will the iPhone SE 4 be a copy of the iPhone XR or benefit from a shortened notch, the question remains.
Will this further increase the price? This remains likely, associated with the integration of newer components. The iPhone Low Cost imagined by analysts in recent years has yet to be born.
On the other hand, the new version of the iPhone SE could very well abandon the Lightning connector in favor of a USB-C port, the new European regulations leave little choice.
