Industry insider Ross Young reported today that the Apple iPhone SE 3 will be postponed until 2024. This smartphone will be equipped with an LCD display and will range in size from 5,7 to 6,1 inches. Apple used to use LCD screens on iPhone XR and iPhone 11. Take the iPhone XR, for example, which has a 6,1-inch screen and a notch. At the moment, there is not much information about the iPhone SE 3. Of course, according to the latest report, it is at least three years away.

However, there are reports that the iPhone 14 series will have a perforated display next year. If so, then we can't rule out the possibility that the 3 iPhone SE 2024 will use the same perforated display.
Screen fingerprints for LCDs are far from mature at this point. In fact, it is not ready for mass production and is still in development. The under-screen OLED fingerprint technology is far superior to LCD and has been commercialized for quite some time now. If the Apple iPhone SE 3 has a large LCD screen, you may need to use the side fingerprint sensor. Alternatively, it can simply use FaceID instead of fingerprint technology.
However, it should be noted that three years is a very long time for technology development. In-screen fingerprint technology could mature by 2024. Given the amount of work on this technology, we expect some breakthroughs in the coming years. Thus, we cannot be sure of anything about the iPhone SE 3. If the release date is indeed 2024, then we should forget about this device for a few years in advance.
Apple iPhone SE Plus goes on sale next year
It's also worth noting that Ross Young also announced earlier that Apple will release the iPhone SE Plus next year. This smartphone will have a 4,7-inch screen, which is the same as the iPhone 8. This seems to mean that the iPhone SE Plus will have a design similar to that of the iPhone 8. However, this smartphone will include a powerful processor, the A15 Bionic. ... iPhone SE Plus will be the next generation of Apple's "small arms".
Following the current trends in today's smartphone market, the small display market is shrinking. Not many users are interested in such small screen devices. However, Apple has a way to convince the public to buy its products. Apple will also release the iPhone SE Plus with a small screen for select markets.
