Apple’s upcoming iPhone SE (2024) was reportedly slated to receive a much-needed design update. Folks at FrontPageTech even leaked the renders of the new device a few months ago. Instead of going for a fresh, exclusive design, the company reportedly planned to make the device look like an iPhone XR. However, in a recent tweet thread, Ming-Chi Kuo claims that Apple is on the fence regarding the future of the iPhone SE. He adds that the company could either postpone the launch or cancel the product altogether.
Kuo cites less than spectacular shipment figures for the iPhone SE (2022), iPhone 14 Plus, and iPhone 13 Mini as one of the reasons for this decision. In addition, Apple is also concerned about the increase in production cost and a resultant price hike for the iPhone SE (2024) if the phone adopts a fresh design. As outlined earlier, the iPhone SE (2024) was rumored to get a full-screen design identical to the iPhone XR, which would have been more expensive to make. Ming-Chi Kuo also adds that Apple is also wary of spending money on developing a product that may not sell in high numbers, especially with bleak prospects for the global economy in 2023.
All things considered, many things could change by the time the iPhone SE (2024) is finally due for launch which, as the name suggests isn’t until early 2024 — well over a year from now.
