Avid iOS jailbreak fans with access to iPhone SE are in for some exciting news as the mach_portal Yalu jailbreak has been tested and confirmed to work fine on the 4in iPhone. Folks at Redmond Pie have recently verified that the iPhone SE is fully functional with the Yalu jailbreak, although the device was not listed as officially supported model.

The key reason for Yalu jailbreak working fine with the iPhone SE is that the phone ships the same internals as the iPhone 6s. iPhone SE is basically an downscaled model of iPhone 6s with a small screen and casing.
