Apple says its C1 modem isn't to blame for the iPhone 16e's lack of MagSafe
The iPhone 16e became official yesterday, and it doesn't have MagSafe. Some people have apparently claimed that the omission of MagSafe had something to do with Apple's new in-house developed modem, the C1, which has made its debut with the iPhone 16e.
That should sound far-fetched by default, and now Apple has confirmed that nothing of the kind has happened. The C1 modem is not responsible for the decision to leave MagSafe charging off the new iPhone 16e, according to a statement issued by Apple.
No magnets here.
So it's all clear now, it was cost cutting all along. Another storm in a teacup has come and gone. Why people couldn't believe that Apple would skimp on MagSafe for its cheapest phone when it already skimped on the cameras isn't very logical, but people on the internet have been known to be devoid of logic before.

It's because average GSMArena user thinks very different than average consumer. I've been checking this site for more than 10 years. I'm a phone enthusiast. I know all about phones. Avarage consumer do not.

I'm asking. I need answers. Please. At the end of the day, you can't say apple makes bad products overall. But why this? Who would buy this?! Over something like 15 or 14 pro? And why?
