Apple has <a href=\"https:\/\/www.apple.com\/newsroom\/2025\/02\/apple-debuts-iphone-16e-a-powerful-new-member-of-the-iphone-16-family\/\">launched<\/a> the iPhone 16E with an updated design and killed off the iPhone\u2019s classic Touch ID interface. Instead, the 16E moves to a Face ID-enabled notch and adds the latest A18 chip and support for Apple Intelligence under the surface, with a starting price of $599.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div>\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1ymtmqpi _17nnmdy1 _17nnmdy0 _1xwtict1\">The 16E is a kind of iPhone SE successor based on the design of 2022\u2019s <a href=\"https:\/\/www.theverge.com\/23352282\/iphone-14-review-apple\">iPhone 14<\/a>, meaning it fits the front-facing cameras required for Face ID (and selfies) into a notch that cuts down from the top of the phone rather than the Dynamic Island design found on the company\u2019s latest flagship phones. <\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div>\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1ymtmqpi _17nnmdy1 _17nnmdy0 _1xwtict1\">With a 6.06-inch OLED display, the 16E is now close to the same size as Apple\u2019s standard 6.12-inch <a href=\"https:\/\/www.theverge.com\/24247479\/apple-iphone-16-plus-review-camera-control-screen-battery\">iPhone 16<\/a>, meaning the company no longer offers a phone significantly smaller than its default model \u2014 at least not until the rumored <a href=\"https:\/\/www.theverge.com\/2025\/1\/20\/24344710\/apple-iphone-17-air-rumors-specs-display-size-price\">iPhone 17 Air<\/a> arrives. The 16E\u2019s measurements show it\u2019s about 0.1mm narrower and 0.7mm shorter than the standard iPhone 16.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div>\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1ymtmqpi _17nnmdy1 _17nnmdy0 _1xwtict1\">On the inside, there\u2019s an A18 chipset, the same chip as the iPhone 16. That makes the 16E powerful enough to run <a href=\"https:\/\/www.theverge.com\/apple\/602270\/apple-intelligence-video-container\">Apple Intelligence<\/a>, the suite of AI tools that includes notification summaries. Even the non-Pro iPhone 15 can\u2019t do that, so the 16E is one of the most capable iPhones out there. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.theverge.com\/2024\/9\/14\/24244540\/apple-confirms-iphone-16-pro-max-8gb-ram-apple-intelligence\">Apple has previously confirmed<\/a> that 8GB RAM was the minimum to get Apple Intelligence support in the iPhone 16 series, so it\u2019s likely that the 16E also boasts at least that much memory. The cheapest version has also been bumped to a baseline of 128GB of storage, meaning there\u2019s no longer a 64GB iPhone.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div>\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1ymtmqpi _17nnmdy1 _17nnmdy0 _1xwtict1\">There\u2019s only a single 48-megapixel rear camera; the lack of additional cameras is the biggest downgrade compared to the company\u2019s other handsets. With support for wireless charging and a water-resistant IP rating, there\u2019s little you have to give up elsewhere.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div>\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1ymtmqpi _17nnmdy1 _17nnmdy0 _1xwtict1\">The iPhone 16E is also the first iPhone to include a modem developed by Apple itself. The company has spent years trying to move away from modems developed by Qualcomm, and we\u2019re finally seeing the fruits of that labor. The big questions now are how well the new modem performs and whether Apple is ready to roll out its own connectivity components in the iPhone 17 line later this year.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div>\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1ymtmqpi _17nnmdy1 _17nnmdy0 _1xwtict1\">The new iPhone 16E is available to preorder Friday starting at $599, which is a significant price hike from the $429 2022 iPhone SE \u2014 though you get a lot more storage (128GB) in the base model and a much more modern design. The 16E ships on February 28th.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div>\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1ymtmqpi _17nnmdy1 _17nnmdy0 _1xwtict1\"><em><strong>Update, February 19th:<\/strong> Added size details and noted lack of MagSafe support.<\/em><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div>\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1ymtmqpi _17nnmdy1 _17nnmdy0 _1xwtict1\"><em><strong>Correction, February 19th: <\/strong>Preorders open Friday, not Thursday, as initially stated.<\/em><\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>It\u2019s official: the home button is dead.
