Because the number four ìs unlucky in China so they wouldn't sell in that huge market.

That is a good point.
There are only a few Nokia phones that have a 4 in their model number, too.

Its just good business sense. Are there many phones beginning with 4? I can't think of an SE phone with a 4 in its name.

Yeah, it's totally to do with the Chinese market. SE has no phones with 4 in it either.
Have you ever wondered why at Chinese restaurants, why they always give you three of an item of food. Never four.
