We expected the new iPhone to be good, we expected it to be significantly better than the iPhone SE it replaces, but we didn’t expect it to be called the iPhone 16e. There is a huge amount to like about the new iPhone, but being the lowest-cost model in the range, there are features it lacks.
Whereas according to which rumors you’ve heard most recently, the iPhone 17 will have everything. There are again some claims of what the iPhone 17 and iPhone 17 Pro will look like, and there are again reasons to doubt them. But until Apple unveils the next new iPhones in September, these rumors are irresistible.
