According to the whistleblower “Unknownz21”, the fourth-generation iPhone SE will be equipped with the same style of multi-function operation buttons as the iPhone 15 Pro, as well as some other new features, such as the Type-C interface.
He called the iPhone SE 4 “actually a derivative of the iPhone 14,” echoing reports by Apple analyst Ming-Chi Kuo and others.
In his latest tweet (or X post), Unknownz21 provided some new details about Apple’s fourth-generation iPhone SE, reiterating that it will feature an iPhone 14-based design.
It is said that the machine will be equipped with a USB-C interface, which is also the first generation of iPhone SE to break away from the Lightning interface. It is also said to be equipped with Face ID technology, which also kills previous expectations that the iPhone SE may retain the Touch ID button.
The most interesting thing is that the whistleblower claims that the machine will be equipped with multi-function buttons like the iPhone 15 Pro / Pro Max / Ultra. According to various previous news, Apple iPhone 15 and iPhone 15 Plus will not provide this configuration (Note: iPhone SE 4 may be released a year and a half later than the iPhone 15 series, and the iPhone 16 series is not sure whether to upgrade the series of buttons ).
In addition, the fourth-generation Apple iPhone SE will also retain a single rear camera configuration like the current model, that is, maintain the single-camera solution that everyone has often touted before.
It was reported earlier this week that domestic OLED panel makers such as Tianma are vying for orders for Apple’s iPhone SE 4 AMOLED panels, and Tianma has the opportunity to become a secondary supplier of the iPhone SE 4, which will be a major upgrade to the existing LCD models.
If nothing else, the next-generation iPhone SE will also be one of the first phones to feature Apple’s custom 5G modem, but numerous sources suggest it won’t be available until at least 2025.
