The new Apple iPhone 16e comes in at $599 / £599, which is significantly more expensive than the $499 / £449 of the previous iPhone SE. The iPhone 16e, however, is a much more specced-out device, sharing the same A18 chipset and main camera as the standard iPhone 16 as well as featuring a much more modern display and design.

If you’re looking for a full run-down of the device, head over to our main Apple iPhone 16e page for detailed specs. We’ll also have a review launching on-site shortly.

What’s new?

• It features the A18 chipset, a 6.1-inch OLED display, a single 48MP rear camera, and a 12MP front-facing camera
• The iPhone 16e is also compatible with Apple Intelligence
• The phone features Apple’s first homegrown cellular modem, the C1

Unlike with previous ‘SE’ devices, Apple has taken a slightly different path with the iPhone 16e. As the name suggests, this device is much more akin to a new mid-range iPhone 16 rather than a re-hash of an older model. For example, it shares the same A18 chipset with the main iPhone 16, along with Apple Intelligence compatibility.

There are a few major differences between the devices, however. For example, the iPhone 16e features a notch on the display instead of Dynamic Island and no action button. You also only get a single 48MP rear camera and 12MP front camera, which aren’t quite as specced-out as those on the iPhone 16. We do expect good performance, however, as it’s the same ‘main camera’ as the one used on the standard model with an integrated 2x telephoto.
