    iPhone 16e is disaster with single camera instead they should have gone with iphone 13 mini as SE 4 it could have been compact with 5.4 inch screen compared to 16e 6.1 inch because every SE version was compact phone and was best choice who loved compact phone

      Wow, that is horrible value for money. But I'm betting it's going to sell okay, due to being an iPhone.

        The only reason why you get this phone. Is if you get it for free from a carrier.

          Not the brightest release, especially from a price standpoint. I'd say $529 would make it a fine mid-range but as positioned makes the regular 16 a more reasonable purchase. But as the editor catches a price hike is to be expected for the upcoming 17.

              Would you not be better off buying a new Iphone 14 for the same price ?

                Patres87, 07 Mar 2025It will still sell like hot cakes. People who just want the... moreThis will sell lesser than the mini phones. This is a disaster, especially at that atrocious price tag

                  An ocean of alternatives at this price, even in the US. Only the least informed Apple fanatic would pay retail for this. "is worth getting" in the review - no. You get 15 variant, maybe refurbed if you just MUST have an Apple. If I noticed someone in real life had a 16e I might think just a little bit less of them. Sorry .

                      Am I the only one that sees the compare images tool everytime I check the camera section?

                            Not that I'm defending this, but I do agree you guys should check out again your battery testing methodology. Somehow I think the version 1.0 of yours was far more reliable than the new one, and several reviews you've made just don't match with many other reviewers results.

                              Two words: Better alternatives.

                                      Anonymous, 07 Mar 2025I‘m so sick of fans I see no fan as an advantage. But then ... moreNot having fans is nice IF you can manage your thermals properly without them. If you can't then you're just making crap.
