      4.2 rating out of 5. I am using 16e 2 months back. I like Battery life, its good, smooth, fast. It is affordable. Need to improve design.

        I’ve been using the iPhone 16e for two months now, and the experience has been excellent—fast, smooth, and reliable, thanks to the powerful A18 chip. It feels future-proof, and I expect it to receive major iOS updates at least until 2030, including iOS 30 and beyond.

        I don’t need a triple-camera setup; what matters to me is capturing good photos and selfies, and the front camera performs brilliantly. Video quality, as always with iPhones, is exceptional. The phone feels premium in hand, and I appreciate Apple making such a device available at this price point. Compared to many Android smartphones, the iPhone 16e truly stands out as a beast.

          3.7 of five is still too good mark.

          All recycled iPhone 13 and older. All more than 4 years old parts or more

          Good chipset but for what. It’s recycling too, cheaper to fab those new boards than old ones again.

          iOS is more a drawback than a plus. ´Ecosystem’ walled garden

          Just to have apple logo, really ? People will pay 600 or something for that ?

          They don’t even really innovate.
          You pay two or three times more for a fruit sticker on the back. That’s about it.

          But it’s branding I get it. Like buying clothes at Prada or at Ali express even it’s the same Gorbage in the end.

          It’s not tech anymore. Boring.

              Anonymous, 24 Jul 2025Xiaomi is much much cheaper, i.e. more cost effective Not true. I always read that it's not true in the west at all. Xiaomi was good ten years ago now it's not. Unreliable , spyi call-RPC , buggy the worst android OS, value is zero . Not even sturdy. And chinophobe should be cheap and they are not. Might have crazy battery charging it's even worse about reliability and hazardous.
              No no no.

              I don't like iOS ( android take same harrible path locking down and sneaking processes anyway ...) and apple was far too greedy ( again... ) with that phone.

              But Xiaomi chinophones no no no. At least at their far to expensive price for the krap it is in the west. I'm not a goat, please don't be one either..

                      I think 3 lenses are better, but on flush with the body.
                      Can make whole apple if you add take and warm it in your hands power on.

                            In India where the prices are generally higher. It's now available in Amazon at 580 USD. And with credit card offers I bought one yesterday at 535 USD. Pretty good value at that price.

                                        Batt life lost out to the Pro that has a 500mAh smaller batt AND with a 60Hz screen is crazy work for even any hardest iFanatic c'mon now... this thing's 256GB model is priced THE SAME AS TWO AAA 100% batt refurb 12 Pro Max 512GB go figure. Never mind basically every other 3x more capable specced droid flagships out here.

                                        Your choice. IF you're buying and can afford the full price cash then go ahead. Else if extending a plan, no you're a dumbass end of.
