IPhone 16E announced: the date of issuance, price, features and specifications
New iPhone in February?! Apple launched the iPhone 16E on its website on Wednesday, which expanded the iPhone 16 line with a comprehensive reform that affects the need to 2022 iPhone SE with a completely new name, design and processor.
The iPhone 16e starts from $ 599 (599 pounds, $ 999), which is more than $ 170 from the previous SE starting price of $ 429. On the contrary, the regular iPhone 16 starts from $ 799. The price puts the phone to the upper end of the phone market at reasonable prices, among competitors such as Google Pixel 8A at a value of $ 499 and Samsung’s Galaxy S24 FE, which starts from $ 650.
At a time when the phone makers are betting on their success in implementing the features of artificial intelligence allocated in their devices faster than their competitors, Apple explains that artificial intelligence is not limited to its expensive pioneering devices. The operation of the iPhone 16E is A18 (the same chip in the iPhone 16 and 16 Plus) so that it can run Apple Intelligence. This makes the new Apple rare: a $ 600 sub -device that can operate the same artificial intelligence features like its most expensive brothers.
Otherwise, the iPhone 16e has a strange value suggestion. On paper it looks like an upgrade in almost every way to iPhone SE. But it lacks the main iPhone SE calls: low price and a small design. This does not mean that the iPhone 16E is not worth its price of $ 600, which will undoubtedly be less with carrier deals and discounts at launch. But like the old iPhone SE, you have to ask how long this phone will be related to it?

IPhone 16E version date
The iPhone 16e will be available for pre -order starting from Friday, February 21, and it will be offered for sale on Friday 28 February. Apple announced the new phone on Wednesday, February 19, and the dates of the version follow this usual schedule from the iPhone from Apple.
IPhone 16E design
The iPhone 16E has a procedure button that can shorten or start visual intelligence research.
The iPhone 16E design appears to be partially inspired by the aluminum body in iPhone 14. The rear glass is matte, which should help prevent fingerprints from accumulation. Instead of the key to concealing the sound, there is a work button to activate a shortcut. Since the iPhone 16e lacks the camera control button, you will be able to run searches for visual intelligence using the procedure button. The phone has a USB-C charging port (instead of the iPhone 14 Lightning port).
The iPhone 16E represents the end of Apple that sells a phone using the home page button, which set the first contract of iPhone designs, dates back to the original goal. The iPhone 16e also has a 6.1 -inch screen, which means that Apple no longer sells a small iPhone option. But the screen, which is locked at the update of 60 Hz, looks like Apple when the majority of Android phones display the high update rate that starts from 90 Hz. Also note that the iPhone 16E has a screen on the screen and lacks the dynamic island cut.
It is strange that the iPhone 16e does not come in color: black or white only.
The original iPhone SE was launched in 2016 and its design was based on the iPhone 5s. SE stood up to “private version”, although some of us have referred to it as “small version”. In 2020, Apple launched the second generation of iPhone SE with an iPhone 8 design but with the A13 Bionic processor from the iPhone 11 series. In 2022, it launched the third generation iPhone SE. Its design was very similar to the 2020 version but had the A15 Bionic chip of the iPhone 13 series.
Modem and Battle C1 from iPhone 16e
It supports iPhone 16e Intelligence, including enjoyable features like Genmoji.
The iPhone 16e also has something that has no other iPhone: Apple 5G modem. It is called the C1 chip, and in a video launch video on Apple, the company claims to be the “most efficient power modem in the iPhone”.
It supports the C1 5G modem, but not the 5G fast millimeter in places like stadiums. It will be interesting to test phone calls and data speeds once we put our hands on the iPhone 16E.
Apple also says that a mixture of A18 and C1 chip raises efficiency and adds to a longer battery life. There are two ways for the customer to earn customer: Reducing the price of the phone and prolong the battery life. Although Apple did not give us a price lower than SE, the battery life may be the best feature. Again, I look forward to the 16E test.
The new iPhone also lacks Magsafe’s support and accessories. There is not a little Magsafe from problems, as this means that you cannot use magnetic accessories and can only charge the phone wirelessly at a slow 7.5 watts. (It can receive wirelessness in 20 watts, though)
IPhone 16E cameras
The back has one 48 -megapixel camera.
The iPhone 16e features one rear camera with a 48 -megapixel sensor. Although you do not get a Ultrawide option, the main camera has a high accuracy enough to do sensor crops to serve 2x enlargement – not just like a second camera, but may be close.
About the introduction is a 12 -megapixel camera that supports the face identifier and has an automatic image adjustment to take selfies.
Final iPhone 16E ideas now
In some sense, the iPhone 16e carries the SE chain cloak and how Apple uses parts of old iPhone devices to create one at reasonable prices. But this name change also represents a symbolic change from the Apple that has a cheap phone to the Apple that contains the IPHONE 16 cost -cost – like how Samsung has Galaxy Fe models.
With the name change to the iPhone 16e, it would be curious to see how Apple deals with upgrades. Unlike several years between iPhone SE versions, will this be a phone updating Apple annually? Will there be iPhone 17e? All this remains to see. I am excited to test iPhone 16e, so watch more coverage on the phone in CNET and our review soon.
