The iPhone SE 4 is rumored to be the very first phone to come with Apple 's new 5 G modem.

This will kickstart a three-year rollout in which the modem will make its way to other Apple devices, including iPads , other iPhones and possibly MacBooks .

Apple has reportedly struggled to develop that modem with satisfactory results, with prototypes apparently failing to outperform the ones Apple gets from Qualcomm .

Even if the modem performs flawlessly, the fact that it can't outpace Qualcomm means that any iPhone with the new modem would be at something of a disadvantage.

The iPhone SE may not be top-of-the-range, but it’s that position that makes it the perfect device for Apple to experiment with new things.

Display glass, different varieties of battery, new internal structuring, and things of that nature.
