Apple iPhone 16e hot take

Not really a hot take since most of the people here share the same opinions 😆
I personally don't think the 16e deserves to be harshly attacked, at least not as severely as the last SE (which was pathetic), but I won't disagree with all these criticisms.
Apple is simply being Apple, the arrogant cheapskate company that they are. It would be a miracle when they finally realize that they're not the most important brand in the world.

I'm starting to believe apple fans see the price tag as a feature, like.. A high price is just as exciting and welcome as a phone having a headphone jack

Hot cake? I dont think so. I have first SE but I would never pay 729 € for this. Why? Because I bought S24 Ultra for 875 €. Now I have 120 Hz antireflective screen, UWB, S-Pen, 3 great cameras, AI, 7 years of software support. Android is the same as iOS in terms of speed. 16e is a joke!

As a Galaxy S25 Ultra user, I have to say - 60hz screen on a phone that costs more than $200 is ridiculous, I don't care if it's Apple or any other company, there is absolutely no reason for this.
If it wasn't for that, I'd say this is probably the iPhone I would actually recommend to people, not my cup of tea, but offers everything most people would need at a much lower price...hope Apple comes to their senses and switches to all-120hz screens on the next version, would love to see that.

“ Apple is asking upper midrange money for what is essentially a device entirely made with recycled parts from previous generations of iPhones.”
Not really, since the new back design with one lens cutout doesn’t come from any previous iPhone.
So yeah. iPhone 16e starts at 600$ and iPhone 16 starts at 800$. 200$ less remove the camera button, the ultra wide lens, the Dynamic Island, MagSafe, one GPU core. What else too. That’s a lot of downgrades for 200$. Frankly, if one can pay 600$ for a phone, might as well go for 800. Better battery life on the 16e? Big deal.

All about camera, 6 hours agoIf Huawei can sell phones with unfinished cameras as seen i... moreIt uses the same sensor as the ultrawide of the iPhone 16 Pro, a 48MP 1/2.55" sensor, which is less than 1cm diagonally. The Sony LYT-600 used in budget phones is a 50MP 1/1.95" sensor. What a joke. Apple is giving the 48MP sensor on this phone the same marketing buzzwords as they did for the flagship 16, which would tell any unassuming consumer that it is the same sensor when it is far inferior - half the size diagonally of the 16 Pro's main camera, and four times less surface area. Classic Apple marketing. In the past, they've prioritised sensor size over resolution and they've completely thrown it out the window now.

WITAWY GOATED, 4 hours agoOne good camera is better than 50 MP + 5 MP + 2 MP + 2 MP. ... moreI actually agree with this and don't mind the phone having just one camera. I bought my dad a Poco X6 Pro last year, runs great, but the 8MP ultrawide and the abysmal 2MP macro cam are utterly pointless. If you can't put a decent ultrawide or telephoto camera in your phone then just leave the main cam and make it good

Anonymous, 4 hours agoStill 16e gonna sell at least 5x more.
Even in China . That it sells more just shows how uninformed people can be, and how we need to expose people to see behind Apple's mask.
The Oppo Find X8 eats this for breakfast. The Pro model uses this to clean its bállṣ.

For those prices you can get an android flagship from 2024 that smokes this trash in every aspect. How are people still falling for this? I expected that, with technology evolving and people getting more knowledgeable, this kinds of products will become obsolete but here they are, making fun of their brain rotted buyers because they know they won't give af about what they get for the money, just that it has that symbol on the back

Strategy Marketing Iphone if you look 16e $600 8/64 is Overprice and you choose iphone 16 regular is better you now have a trap. Because in 2025 you have many choose $600 another phone 1000% better with overall specs not just about iPhone, you can choose oppo find x8 12/256 similar Ui and Feature like iOS , you can choose Xiaomi 14T Pro camera and gaming better 1000% like iPhone 16 Pro or you can choose Samsung S21 Ultra old phone 16/512 last update One UI 7.0 with same price. Hi Bro you must wake up , iPhone iOS feature now available similar and better in Color Os , Harmony Os Next and Origin OS, ZTE Nubia AiOS, Magic Os Next In 5 years next from now hopefully the Phone China will be completely copied and much better than the iPhone. (My English is beginner I hope you guys understand)

It's way too overpriced
The SE was better off being an affordable, starter iPhone at accessible price. Now it's a bad deal. People will just get an older iPhone like 14 or 15. Those with money will get the 16 rather than the E.
Those looking to switch to iOS won't buy it either, since the specs are way too low for the price, compare to what other Android phones are offering for the same cash
This might be their lowest selling iPhone of all time

My say for this is the reality of kids, teens and most of all people in america are occupied from the thought that the price of this phone is justifiable despite us knowing there's better alternatives than this.
The brain-rot mindset of thinking "Apple" is better than Android will not end.
The thought of most people in america is only ears-out to big companies like this and these "big companies" knows this as they have been playing around with these people providing no innovation since the beginning of the iPhone 11 and up.
This seems like a dream in the US and I have to say, you people have to wake up.
I know it's hard to listen or hear out a person's thought such as mine or the other's opinions about this matter. At least, hear us out. Sooner or later as you use your head wisely and know better, you'll be glad you've enlightened yourself. Don't thank us, thank yourself.

this "new" 16e will sell in the US but it wouldn't sell anywhere else since the price is just ridiculous and the competition will make this phone not even considered by anyone
