iPhone 17e: new, improved starter model
The Apple iPhone 17e is the most affordable model from the iPhone 17 series. The device is superfast, because it has the same processor as the iPhone 17. You can also effortlessly perform demanding tasks and play games without slowing down. This small device has a 6.1-inch screen, so it can easily fit in your pocket. You can take sharp and colorful photos with the rear camera, especially with good lighting. If you zoom in or take photos in the dark, the photos aren't as sharp.
Differences with other affordable iPhone models
- The iPhone 16e didn't have a MagSafe magnet, which the iPhone 17e does have. This means you can magnetically attach MagSafe accessories such as chargers and power banks to the 17e.
- The iPhone 17e doesn't have a wide-angle lens, like the iPhone 17 and 17. This means it's more difficult to capture large buildings and groups.
- The iPhone 17e doesn't have the Center Stage selfie camera that the iPhone 17 has. Your selfies aren't as sharp and it's not as easy to tale selfies of a large group.
