Apple's next generation iPhone SE will get a 48MP rear camera and a 12MP front camera from LG Innotek, according to a new rumor from ET News.
According to industry sources on the 8th, LG Innotek is set to supply both front and rear camera modules for the iPhone SE 4. While LG Innotek previously supplied only the rear camera module for the iPhone SE 3, it will now handle the front camera as well. The iPhone SE 3, released in March 2022, will be succeeded by the SE 4, which is expected to launch in March next year.
LG has purportedly begun mass production of the new camera modules at its factories, including those in Vietnam. Other companies in the camera module supply chain include Foxconn and Cowell Electronics.
Notably, LG is also expected to supply OLED display panels for the iPhone SE 4, marking a shift from the LCD panel used in the third-generation iPhone SE. The new display is reportedly a 6.1-inch Low-Temperature Polycrystalline Silicon (LTPS) OLED panel, similar to the one used in the iPhone 13.
LG's share of display orders is estimated to be between 25% and 35%, with competitor BOE also securing a portion of the orders for the new device.
Another major feature of the iPhone SE 4 will be Apple's debut of its long-awaited in-house 5G modem. While its initial performance may not match Qualcomm's, Apple aims to surpass Qualcomm by 2027.
