Rumors about the status of the iPhone SE 4 from analyst Ming-Chi Kuo paint a grim picture of what could have been the phone's biggest upgrade.
Kuo had said before the next iPhone SE would be based on the iPhone 14, which would be a huge leap forward from the current iPhone 8-derived iPhone SE 2022. Now though, Kuo believes that this iPhone 14-based unit is just a prototype designed for testing Apple's in-house 5G modem, and won't be mass-produced and sold.
