Tianfeng Securities analyst Ming-chi Kuo has released a new report saying that Apple may cancel or delay the plan to launch the next generation iPhone SE, temporarily called iPhone SE 4.
According to GizChina, reports suggest that mass production of the iPhone SE 4 will begin in 2024, but Mr. Kuo thinks this may not happen. Kuo said this is due to the fact that sales of mid-range to high-end iPhones were much lower than expected, including the iPhone SE 3, 13 mini, and even the 14 Plus.
Besides, he thinks that the iPhone SE 4’s switch to an all-screen design will increase the cost of the device, so Apple may need to re-examine the product goals and the return on investment for the product. . And yet, cutting unnecessary new product development costs will also help Apple weather the challenges of the global recession in 2023.
Earlier, leak expert Jon Prosser said that the new iPhone SE 4 will adopt a design that is almost identical to the iPhone XR. However, at the moment there is not much information about this phone. With delays or cancellations, it is likely that new news about the iPhone SE 4 will appear less.
It is known that the current generation iPhone SE was launched by Apple at the new product introduction on March 9. This device comes with the same A15 Bionic chip as the iPhone 13 series and is the last member of the iPhone family to switch to 5G networks. Other specifications of the device include a 4.7-inch LCD screen, a 12 MP camera on the back, and a 7 MP on the front. The phone also supports IP67 water resistance and integrates a fingerprint sensor on the Home button.
