We’re not too far away from Apple’s expected unveiling of the new iPhone SE 4. And recently, conflicting reports have caused confusion over the device’s form factor. Now, a key display analyst has weighed in with a more authoritative answer on the notch-Dynamic Island debate.
Reliable source supports iPhone SE having notch
Ross Young, analyst at DSCC, has proven one of the most reputable sources when it comes to Apple displays.
Now, he has weighed in on the recent notch-Dynamic Island confusion surrounding the iPhone SE.
In a reply to 9to5Mac on X, Young states:
Notch like iPhone 14 is correct
Short, simple, and—for me at least—an authoritative answer to the notch-Dynamic Island question.
It’s also not at all a surprise.
The iPhone SE 4 has long been rumored to resemble the iPhone 14, and adding a Dynamic Island would have taken away a noteworthy advantage held by the iPhone 16.
The new SE is already expected to boast several iPhone 16-level features, such as:
- full Apple Intelligence support
- 8GB of RAM
- A18 chip
- USB-C port
- and a similar 48MP rear camera
Now, the iPhone SE’s notch and iPhone 16’s Dynamic Island will at least offer a key visual differentiator between Apple’s budget model and its flagship.
Are you now convinced the iPhone SE 4 will have a notch? Why or why not? Let us know in the comments.
