Apple’s camera module provider LG Innotek will begin mass production of the components for the upcoming iPhone SE 4 sometime in December, according to a new report by Korean economic newspaper Ajunews.
The report says LG Innotek will supply the front camera module for the lower-priced fourth-generation device. Final tests are reportedly underway, with mass production of the module beginning next month.
The outlet notes that the company usually supplies camera modules about three months before the launch of a new smartphone. That jibes with other reports we’ve seen that have the fourth-generation iPhone SE 4 launching in March or April 2025.
Apple analyst Ming-Chi Kuo estimates Apple suppliers will ship around 8.6 million iPhone SE 4 units through the first quarter of next year.
The new iPhone SE 4, expected to carry a sub-$500 price tag, is expected to feature a USB-C port and Face ID, replacing the Touch ID Home button and the Lightning port the current iPhone SE is equipped with.
The fourth-generation iPhone SE’s display is rumored to considerably increase from the current 4.7 inches to 6.06 inches, and to feature an OLED display panel for the first time. The new handset is also expected to be powered by the same A18 chip as the iPhone 16 lineup. The handset is expected to include 8GB of LPDDR5 memory to better handle Apple intelligence, an aluminum chassis, a single rear 48-megapixel camera, and Apple’s first in-house 5G modem.
