Daniel Red Posted February 27 Posted February 27 Wondering what major features are missing from this phone? Thinking of getting it for my 14 year old child. Quote
Polly Ranton Posted February 27 Posted February 27 The biggest ones for me are that there's no second camera of magsafe compatability. Not supporting MagSafe technology, limits compatibility with certain accessories and faster wireless charging and its only quipped with a single 48-megapixel rear camera, it lacks an ultra-wide lens, telephoto lens, and advanced modes like Cinematic and Action. For a teenager this seems pretty important... Quote
Frieda Jones Posted February 27 Posted February 27 Ultra Wideband (UWB) Chip: Absent in the iPhone 16e, this omission affects precision tracking capabilities for devices like AirTags. Display Enhancements: The phone features a 6.1-inch OLED display but lacks ProMotion and Always-On Display technologies, and is limited to a 60Hz refresh rate. Quote
Thomas Moore Posted February 27 Posted February 27 Lacking: Graphics Performance: The A18 chip in the iPhone 16e has a 4-core GPU, compared to the 5-core GPU in other iPhone 16 models, potentially affecting graphics-intensive applications. Design Elements: The device does not include the Camera Control button introduced with the iPhone 16 series. Wireless Connectivity: The iPhone 16e supports Wi-Fi 6 but does not include Wi-Fi 7 capabilities. Color Options: Available only in Black and White, it offers fewer color choices than other models in the lineup. These omissions reflect Apple's strategy to balance cost and functionality in the iPhone 16e, positioning it as an entry-level option within the iPhone 16 series. Quote
