Subj : The iPhone SE 4 rumored again to have an OLED display, and could To : All From : TechnologyDaily Date : Wed Sep 04 2024 10:30:05 The iPhone SE 4 rumored again to have an OLED display, and could bring an end to LCD iPhones Date: Wed, 04 Sep 2024 09:14:37 +0000 Description: Apple has reportedly begun ordering OLED panels for the iPhone SE 4. FULL STORY ====================================================================== It looks like LCD phone screens could soon be a thing of the past, at least on all but the most low-end models. Android phone makers largely moved away from the tech long ago, and while Apple held out longer on some of its handsets, a report suggests the final LCD iPhone the iPhone SE (2022) could soon be replaced by an OLED model. This is according to Nikkei Asia , which claims that Apple has begun placing orders for OLED displays for the upcoming iPhone SE 4 . OLED displays can deliver greater contrast between blacks and whites than LCD ones, and often exhibit more vibrant colors, so in most ways theyre an upgrade, which is why so few phones now use LCD screens. This would be a desirable change then, and its one weve heard of previously too, with several different previous sources pointing to an OLED display on the iPhone SE 4 . The iPhone SE 4 could land in 2025 The iPhone SE 2022 (Image credit: Future) But this latest leak doesnt just add credence to those claims, it also makes us think the iPhone SE 4 will probably land next year, since if Apple has only just begun placing panel orders its unlikely to be ready in the next month or two meaning a launch alongside the iPhone 16 on September 9 is very unlikely. But equally, that would mean the phone is in production, so we shouldnt be waiting beyond 2025. A launch in late 2024 could also be possible, but we haven't heard any leaks suggesting that, so our best guess is 2025, as weve previously heard that the iPhone SE 4 could land in 2025 . That said, another leak suggested the SE 4 wouldnt launch before 2026 , so theres still some uncertainty. We can only hope then that the lengthy wait for this phone will be over before too long. In the meantime though, were likely to see the iPhone 16, the iPhone 16 Plus , the iPhone 16 Pro , and the iPhone 16 Pro Max on Monday, September 9. TechRadar will be covering the launch in full, so head back here on Monday for all the news and announcements.
