2025 iPhone SE 4 to Feature OLED Screen, Aiming for Cost Efficiency

Apple plans to use recycled parts and legacy technology to lower costs, with Samsung, BOE, and Tianma vying to supply the OLED panels.

Overview

  • The 2025 iPhone SE 4 will feature an OLED screen, transitioning from the LCD screens used in previous models.
  • Apple aims to minimize costs by re-using the 6.1-inch screen from the iPhone 13, a strategy that also applies to the iPhone 14.
  • Samsung Display, BOE, and Tianma are competing to supply the OLED panels, with Samsung reportedly offering the lowest price.
  • The OLED panels for the iPhone SE 4 are expected to cost significantly less than those for the iPhone 15, due to the use of recycled parts and legacy technologies.
  • Despite rumors, the iPhone SE 4 is unlikely to feature the Dynamic Island, focusing instead on a design similar to the iPhone 14 and improved 5G capabilities.
