According to foreign media reports, the iPhone SE4, which will be released in March 2025, will undergo a major upgrade in the screen. Apple has two suppliers. BOE will be the main supplier of iPhone SE4, and the second-tier supplier is LG Display.

Of course, the screen used in the iPhone SE4 is not a newly developed one, but the old specifications are used to save costs. The iPhone SE4 is expected to use the screen of the iPhone 13.



BOE has actually been supplying screens for Apple's standard models. Earlier, it only provided maintenance support, and then began to provide the first-edition screen panels. Apple has always intended to increase screen suppliers to balance Samsung and LG Display, share possible risk factors, and avoid the constraints of Qualcomm baseband on Apple.

It is worth noting that the iPhone SE4 will be equipped with Apple's self-developed 5G baseband, which is the first shot for Apple to get rid of Qualcomm's baseband. According to analyst Ming-Chi Kuo, Apple will launch Apple's self-developed 5G baseband in the iPhone SE4, and the iPhone 16 series will continue to use Qualcomm's baseband. If the iPhone SE4 can gain consumer recognition in terms of signal, then in the future iPhone 17 series, Apple may use self-developed basebands on a large scale.
