iPhone 16E First Impressions
The iPhone 16E is here. The $599 phone joins the iPhone 16 line as Apple’s most affordable phone. But it also marks the end of the iPhone SE era, the home button, the Lightning port and a truly small iPhone option. Subscribe to CNET on YouTube: Never miss a deal again! See CNET’s browser extension…

Apple AI is so lame. Any phone can just download chatgpt and Google apps and circle to search everything..

Like so many others, i feel it is priced too high. If it were $100 less, it might tempt me to update from my iPhone 13 Mini. But it doesn’t. I really couldn’t care less about AI. Am now considering switching to other brands when i need to replace my current phone.

Needed to start at $499. Fail, big time actually, at $599. Might as well just get a new 15 or an older 14 Pro phone used…Apple really needs to stop dropping the ball, they only had a single hit last year with the Mac Mini M4…it’s been miss across the board otherwise.

Apple launches this terrible products for the masses in other countries that they are expensive. The price of this phone and what it offers, is a legit joke!

I’d prefer to stay with my iPhone 15, I already got a great case from Vionentus, won’t upgrade yet.

They promoted this phone for the lack luster apple intelligence.

Apple should just do Pro and air phones just like they do on the Macs

I have the iPhone 16 pro max and Apple intelligence isn’t that amazing. I end up using chatGPT anytime I have to search something.

If 16e were an iPhone mini and available in a few more colours, I think it might be a better hit with people. I think those who are holding on to older vintage models might upgrade to this 16e once those vintage models stop working? Just a possibility…

If this phone was just $100 less, I would’ve definitely purchased it to upgrade from my current 2020 iPhone SE

Apple should have called it the iPhone 16R
@highdefnews
February 20, 2025 at 6:25 pm
Pretty disappointing IMHO. They should consider releasing a true SE model at a lower price point. Maybe one with a smaller screen like the discontinued Mini line to differentiate it.

This iPhone is okay. Apple doesn’t want to compete with the 16 model and it’s strategically justified. The lack of magSave is a false argument as is the color. The majority of users buy a protective case and there are magSave cases for those who want it. Cheaper than the 15 but offering the possibility of Apple Intelligence, it’s probably the iPhone for those who use it normally. Powerusers will go for a Pro range, but you have to compare like with like and compared to an iPhone SE, it’s a step forward. In short, if you don’t like it, don’t buy it. Apple is not here to fulfill your personal desires, but to make a profit. And on this last point, Apple is very good at that.
