Apple iPhone SE 4 exposed, USB-C interface, new operation buttons
With the official release of the new generation of iPhone series flagships, many users have also begun to care about other iPhone series devices in the future.
Previously, there was news that Apple will continue to update the iteration of the iPhone SE series of devices in the future. Now, revelations about the next generation of Apple's iPhone SE 4 have also begun to appear in large quantities.
The latest revelation mentioned that Apple's fourth-generation iPhone SE is expected to undergo major changes in design and hardware.
The new Apple fourth-generation iPhone SE is said to be codenamed "Ghost" internally. It is expected to use a design that borrows almost entirely from the iPhone 14, and even retain the test parameters of the iPhone 14 for internal testing.
The all-new iPhone SE 4 will also bring two new supports, the newly appeared action button and USB-C port.
Among them, the new operation button appeared for the first time on the iPhone 15 Pro, replacing the original mute switch, which can be configured for a variety of different operations.
At the same time, related news shows that Apple is making extensive use of the E85 connector, that is, the USB-C port. This means that more Apple devices will use this port in the future.
Combined with the information mentioned in the latest revelations, in addition to the new operation buttons and USB-C interface, the overall design of the new generation of iPhone SE 4 and iPhone 14 is roughly consistent.
In terms of the design of the back of the fuselage, the latest revelation shows that the next generation iPhone SE will use a similar camera and flash arrangement as the third-generation iPhone SE, but the specific rear camera module design scheme is still unknown.
According to the statement mentioned in the current revelation, there are currently two camera module schemes, namely "the lens and flash are simultaneously placed in a whole raised rectangular rear camera module" or "the camera is placed separately on the back plate of the fuselage and raised upward".
Both designs have appeared in previous iPhone series devices, but the actual new machine is still unknown. However, existing information shows that the next generation of iPhone SE 4 will only have a rear camera and upgrade to 48 million pixels.
At the same time, the new iPhone SE 4 will cancel the Touch ID fingerprint recognition home button, introduce the familiar Face ID recognition scheme, and use a new OLED panel.
Based on this, the next iPhone SE 4 should bring significant changes in terms of design. Combined with the existing news, it will be equipped with a new front screen, changing the button design on the side of the fuselage and the rear camera module scheme on the back of the fuselage.
In addition to the design adjustments, specific equipment specifications are also of concern.
Previous revelations have mentioned that although the current iPhone SE 3 has supported 5G, it uses Qualcomm's customized Snapdragon X57 baseband chip. The new iPhone SE will come with Apple's custom-designed 5G modem, but it appears to only support the sub-6GHz band.
However, with the latest revelations, the above statement has also changed.
It is reported that the latest revelation shows that Qualcomm recently issued a press release saying that the company will provide Apple with smartphone modems until 2026.
In this regard, the next generation of iPhone SE 4 is likely not equipped with Apple's self-developed 5G modem.
Of course, given that there is still a long time before the release of Apple's iPhone SE 4, the relevant revelation information is also in an early state, and the actual situation may change.
