9to5mac.com Ben Lovejoy 2025-06-14 08:02:53

The rumors turned out to be correct, even if most were styling it with a capital E rather than a lower-case one: the iPhone SE 4 is officially named the iPhone 16e. One question is what the e stands for. Apple has often been vague about the meaning of suffices like S, R, and SE when appended to various iPhone models, but it did provide an answer this time … Majin Bu was correct Leaker Majin Bu was first to suggest the new name, at the beginning of January, and was correct with all the details
