Apple's lowest-cost iPhone 16 introduced

California: Apple has introduced the cheapest model of the iPhone 16 series to the users.

The iPhone 16e was introduced by the company on February 19, which did not have a home button, thus now all Apple devices are home button-free.

This new low-cost iPhone will replace the iPhone SE of 2022.

The iPhone SE (2022) was the last iPhone to have a Touch ID button and the new model of this series has been made part of the iPhone 16 series, eliminating the SS series.

The design of this new phone is similar to the iPhone 14, but in terms of features, it is quite similar to the iPhone 16.

The phone has the A18 chip from the iPhone 16 inside, while it has a 6.1-inch OLED display, which means that it is pretty much the same as the iPhone 16 in terms of screen size.

There is a 48-megapixel camera on the back of the phone and is behind the iPhone 16 in this regard.

But this camera also provides 2x zoom, at least that is what Apple claims.

Apple has promised that this is the best iPhone ever in terms of battery life, which lasts six hours longer than the iPhone 11 on a single charge.

Similarly, its battery lasts 12 hours longer than the 2016 iPhone SE.

Users can use Face ID to unlock the phone, while USB-C support is provided for charging.

Equipped with iOS 18, this phone has Apple Intelligence Model support, meaning that users will have access to AI features, while an action button has also been given on the side, but it cannot be used for camera control.

Thus, it is also Apple’s cheapest AI iPhone ever.

This is Apple’s first iPhone to use a modem developed by the company, which also provides satellite connectivity.

That is, features like Emergency SOS, Roadside Assistants, Messages, and Find My Phone via satellite can be used in it.

This new iPhone will be available in white and black colors in various countries from February 28.

Its price will start at $599 and will be Apple’s cheapest iPhone available at the moment as the iPhone S3 is being discontinued by the company.
