A $599 iPhone 16e is a cruel joke

engadget.com Unknown 2025-07-05 11:05:07

The $599 iPhone 16e is many things, but don't you dare call it a budget phone. I hesitate to even call it "cheap." As a successor to the $429 iPhone SE, it's hard not to see the 16e as a disappointment. Sure, it's $200 less than the vanilla iPhone 16 (which I argued was a great deal at launch), and the 16e also packs in the latest A18 chip with support for Apple Intelligence. But it's no longer a small phone, and it pushes Apple's cheaper iPhone option well beyond $500. That's something we'll li

You can’t build a moat with AI (redux)

Last spring, we wrote an article called You can’t build a moat with AI.

In India, Apple’s iPhone 16e faces stiff competition from older models

On Wednesday, Apple unveiled the iPhone 16e. The model replaces both the iPhone SE and iPhone 14 in the company’s lineup. The new handset is the least expensive member of the iPhone 16 lineup, aiming at emerging markets, including India. The world’s second largest smartphone market (behind China) has fueled significant iPhone sales, with Apple recently cracking the top five vendors in India.

Apple’s iPhone 16e seems boring, and that’s exactly why I want one

Apple I might be the one and only person who’s genuinely excited about the iPhone 16e. On paper, there’s nothing crazy about Apple’s new mid-range phone — it only has one camera, brings back the notch for Face ID, and comes in two bland colorways, black and white. But hear me out — that’s why I’m excited. For the first time in a long time, it feels like Apple is making a phone for people who don’t want to be completely glued to their phones, and I think that will make the iPhone 16e a success.
