iPhone SE 4 Now Rumored To Feature A Notch, But Without Face ID

Apple’s next iPhone SE refresh is expected to happen in 2024 and come with a new 6.1-inch display that, for the first time, will include a notch.

It still isn’t clear whether that will mean the addition of Face ID to the iPhone SE for the first time, however.

This comes after Display Supply Chain Consultants (DSCC) analyst Ross Young tweaked his previous report suggesting that the device would have a hole-shaped cutout for the camera on a 5.7 to 6.1-inch display.

Now, speaking with MacRumors, Young believes that we can expect a notch rather than that hole-punch design. However, it doesn’t necessarily mean that we will see Face ID.

Now, Young’s revised forecast claims that the device will feature a 6.1-inch display with a notch. Whether the ‌iPhone SE‌’s notch will contain a TrueDepth camera array like other iPhone models to facilitate Face ID is not known.

If Apple does decide not to go with a Face ID configuration, the notch could be smaller than ones that we’re familiar with.

As a result, it’s thought Apple may choose to continue with Touch ID but on the device’s Side button, rather than the Home button that has been used in recent years. That would create a device that looks more like the iPhone XR, although again, possibly with a smaller notch.
