The iPhone X, iPhone XS and iPhone XS Max models were Apple’s first phones with OLED screens. The technology giant, which made a small distinction in the iPhone 11 series it introduced in 2019, returned to the LCD screen in the flat model, while it appeared in front of the users with OLED technology in Pro and Pro Max.
In the iPhone 12 series, which Apple launched last year, it completely included OLED. The situation did not change in the iPhone 13 models, which appeared in September. The iPhone SE (Special Edition) family, which appeals to Touch ID lovers with a small screen, uses an LCD screen.
iPhone SE 3 will be Apple’s last LCD phone
It is estimated that the iPhone SE 3 model will be introduced next year. It was claimed that the smartphone, which was said to be the “cheapest iPhone” when it went on sale, would be the “last iPhone with an LCD screen”. Apple has started opting entirely for OLED in the main iPhone lineup, but has yet to bring it to the Special Edition (SE) family. Expectations are that models after the iPhone SE 3 will have an OLED display.
According to sources, the iPhone SE 3 will have a similar design to the iPhone 8 series. However, it will adopt the square frame we are used to from the iPhone 4. It will also house a single round camera on the back. In early October, some photos allegedly belonging to the phone were leaked online. The upper and lower sides were revealed.
It is estimated that the iPhone SE 3 will have 5G connectivity supported by the Snapdragon X60 modem and will be powered by the A15 processor in the iPhone 13. In addition, it is expected to use a 4.7-inch Retina HD display. In previous leaks, it was reported that the phone will have a Touch ID-enabled middle button. However, according to new information, the Touch ID function can be integrated into the side power button.
