Apple iPhone 16E Launched: Features, Price and AI Power Explained!

Apple has surprised users by launching a new iPhone in February! The latest iPhone 16E was unveiled on Apple’s website, introducing Apple Intelligence features, a sleek design, and a powerful A18 chip. It serves as an upgrade to the iPhone SE 2022 but comes with a new name and higher price.

Price & Market Position

The iPhone 16E starts at $599 (£599, AU$999), which is a significant jump from the iPhone SE's $429 starting price. However, it remains more affordable than the iPhone 16 ($799). This places the iPhone 16E between competitors like:

• Google Pixel 8A ($499)
• Samsung Galaxy S24 FE ($650)

Powerful Performance with Apple Intelligence

Apple is making sure that AI is not limited to its expensive flagship models. The iPhone 16E is powered by the A18 chip, the same processor found in the iPhone 16 and 16 Plus, allowing it to support Apple Intelligence features. This makes it one of the few budget-friendly phones with premium AI capabilities.

What Makes 16E Stand Out?

The iPhone 16E is an improvement over the iPhone SE in almost every way, offering:
Sleek New Design
Apple’s First In-House 5G Modem
AI-Powered Features with A18 Chip
Longer Software Support

However, it does lose the SE’s small form factor and lower price, making some wonder how long this device will stay relevant.

Release Date

The iPhone 16E will be available for preorders from February 21, and sales will start on February 28. Carrier deals and discounts may make it more affordable at launch.
