That said, I suspect I know why.īooming sales of massive 6.7-inch iPhone Pro Max models, combined with poor sales of the 5.4-inch iPhone Mini range (which resulted in its cancellation), had convinced the company Big Was In. Apple is known to work several generations in advance, so for the company to be still deliberating about something as fundamental as the size of its next iPhone SE is highly unusual. It is believed to be considering 6.1" OLEDs from 2 suppliers as well as 5.7"-6.1" LCDs from 2 suppliers.” In a new supertweet to his premium followers, display specialist Ross Young revealed that “Apple has not yet finalized its display choice on the SE4.

When Lighting was first introduced in September 2012, its compact reversible nature justified its existence over the irregular micro-USB. “It will be presented as a way to simplify charging across iPhones, iPads and Macs.” This is undoubtedly true, if somewhat disingenuous, given that Apple could have switched iPhones to USB-C years ago - after all, Apple itself was involved in developing the standard. “You can bet that when Apple announces the iPhone 15, the change won’t be described as government intervention,” says Gurman. While Apple didn’t specifically confirm it would fix a USB-C port to new iPhones, Gurman says they will indeed come to iPhone 15 models, implying that it will be for the full range rather than Pro/Ultra exclusive, as some leaks claim. “While Apple appears to be bitter that a government is intervening in its product road map, the move from Lightning to USB-C is actually a good thing for consumers,” argues Gurman. 10/31 Update: writing in his latest Power On newsletter, Bloomberg’s Mark Gurman has thrown his weight behind USB-C coming to the iPhone 15 range, and described how Apple will present the switch to customers.
