Or economy. Either way it sounds cheap and low value compared to the connotations that SE could have. Edit lol he ends up bringing up economy at the end.
And “environmental friendly” cuz it’s rumoured to be Apple’s first carbon neutral phone. However, why not reuse the letter C instead if that’s the case? Apple can emphasise that it’s the classic iPhone that’s also their first carbon neutral model and it happens to charge with USB-C. 3 C’s in a row and they’re positive features people actually buy unlike “colourful”.
@@malekabdoh8639 the regular 17 and “17 air” have been rumored to be getting 120hz displays for months, allegedly no longer Pro iPhone exclusive features
@wasylbasyl C meant “colourful” back then, and nobody bought the idea. C also meant “cheapness” which hurt phone sales. And R meant nothing, so even though oriole liked the XR apple wouldn’t dare to try that again. However, given today’s economy’s bad and Apple’s moving towards its carbon neutral goals, calling this iPhone C will make as much sense as E.

Give them a meaningful suffix and it’s gonna sell like hot cakes unlike all the fan editions.
I'm excited for this phone. Want to get USB-C but don't need all the bells and whistles. Still on the iPhone 12 currently, will probably upgrade once the battery goes to crap.
I’ve been saying for a while now that current sizes are getting too big, at this point I don’t think it should go further. Instead, I want companies to try and hit phone sizes for everyone. Specifically in Apples case I’ve suggested formatting the iPhone lineup to be similar to the iPad and MacBook lines. My ideal lineup if we have to keep the current sizes would be: iPhone & iPhone Plus: 5.9 & 6.5 iPhone Air & Air Plus: 6.1 & 6.7 iPhone Pro & Pro Max: 6.3 & 6.9 iPhone Mini: 5.4 (follows iPad Mini Release cycle)
Perhaps the reason why they don’t do a small iPhone is because you would use it less and if you’re using it less it means less time they gain revenue from advertising.
That'll be the air. The lighter weight and smaller dimensions will be achieved through thinness instead of limiting the screen size. It'll be a win-win.
As a 13 mini user I just want a smaller phone option. Not even mini small! Just narrower than 70mm. The 15 pro is currently still the only real option I have.
I still had hoped that Apple develop the iPhone SE 4 around an updated iPhone 13 mini design, maybe a tad thicker to accommodate a bigger battery in the 2,800 to 2,900 mAh range.
The s10e was not a cheaper model: it was a Mini model (in Apple parlance). It was flagship specs in small form factor. The FEs are clearly a different line that are meant to be cheaper, unlike the s10e.
If the SE becomes a yearly device and is essentially the Apple equivalent of the Pixel A series then I’ll be happy because it’ll remain compact and hopefully be under $500.
The only problem I see with the '16e' naming is that the SE line/type of phone typically lasts multiple years before being updated by Apple, so it's gonna be a bit weird in a couple of years name-wise when the iPhone 18/19 whatever is out.
@ Yes, but who says they can’t change that again? From 5 to 10 it was a yearly cycle. And for most other products they go to a more regular cycle with smaller upgrades.
@@florian_d that is not very likely to be a thing again, if you’ve noticed Apple has moved all iPad models to longer upgrade cycles, they are not selling as well as they used to despite still being the most sold tablets in the market
@ Yes, but the cycle for the other iPads was always longer. The iPad Pro always had a 18 month cycle with some exceptions. Basically since the Air 2, the base line iPads were the only ones that were updated regularly
I am thinking about upgrading my iPhone 12 Pro to an iPhone SE I want to get a more basic phone and use it for a long time (I don’t care much about the cameras, btw)
I’m probably gonna stick with my 11 Pro Max till the wheels fall off, as not only it still works perfectly fine for me, but I also have a new case with a MagSafe ring built in, so now I have the headphone jack back (kinda)!
The SE name was used because they’re an enhancement of legacy designs. They’re older editions of the iPhone design with newer, special features. The (seemingly formerly) SE 4 from leaks sounds like it has enough changes and diversions from the iPhone 14 it’s based on to the point where maybe a new name was warranted.
Oh cmon, don’t play dumb! SE stood for slightly expensive, and now they’ve upped the pricing to Fully E(xpensive), but can’t use FE as it’s already taken by Samsung…
I'll go on a tangent with the SoC situation here: If it's going to be named with the precious generation's number, it might be indicating that it's going to have the same SoC as iPhone 16. That would mean that Apple is going with Samsung's FE strategy, which is a step in the opposite direction with what they did with iPhone 16's last year (same generation SoC as Pros) and the same thing they did in the year before (iPhone 15's having SoCs one generation behind the 15 Pros). All of it is confusing but I do understand that Apple found the balance in keeping regular iPhones with the current year's technology and making iPhone E a spiritual successor of iPhone Mini by giving it the old processors to it, like what they do with iPad Mini. So, why not call it iPhone Mini again? They don't want to associate it with a series they killed a few years ago? Idk. At this rate, Apple is going to have problems with their device families like Samsung did years ago. Their tablet family is extensive, too. There are rumors where a baseline MacBook with no "Air" or "Pro" moniker is going to arrive in the next year. The whole device lineup is starting to seem like a McDonald's Menu. 1:35 why Samsung is using Fan Edition for devices that's cheaper than the normal models? It doesn't have much to do with S10 E, it started with Note 7 FE, a device fans wanted but it's served alongside the newer models, thus it's the older flagship launching again with cheaper prices. Then Samsung started to use it with revised models of its previous flagships. That's my point, if Apple is not making an iPhone 17 SE and naming it iPhone 16 E instead, they must be trying to tap into the second-hand market like Samsung is doing. I think Samsung and Apple are trying to steal back some attention from the second-hand deals. Wanna buy the old flagship from someone or want to buy it straight from Samsung and Apple? So as flagships are kept for longer periods of time, the sales shouldn't diminish as much. Another side effect is second-hand market getting inflated because older flagships should still worth more than these new entry-level flagship devices in the sellers' eyes. That's what I think about the future of smartphone market. Apple and Samsung are receding to higher tears, surrendering the entry level-smartphone market to Chinese OEMs while Chinese OEMs are aware of that and delivering formidable alternatives to the subpar entry-level flagship offerings coming from Apple and Samsung in the same price range. The ecosystem argument is their last stance. Idk what else those two behemots can do
Here in Europe the SE has always been EXPENSIVE because we get taxed 20%. So this coming in more expensive will make it the price of the current 14, a phone with 2 cameras. I suppose Apple are hoping usb c, Dynamic Island and A18 will be enough to compensate for the loss of an extra camera. It won’t do ultra wide but probably will do zoom and macro.
14 has an UW camera; rumoured budget iPhone has a ton that’s better. Pick your poison. Also I don’t think the new budget iPhone will be like 20% more expensive than America lol
I’d like to see a verses iPhone 13 mini against iPhone 16e. No need to update but curious how much actual benefit there is or if more of a loss even to that older and smaller phone.
Better chip. For one, you'll be able to play all the AAA game ports locally on your phone. Also, double the RAM. Also, no ginormous, obnoxious camera stove on the back. Instead, you get a smaller, neater-looking single lens.
the iPhone Air is probably just what the SE is going to be. Like how the MacBook Air from 2010 onwards was basically a MacBook SE to the MacBook Pro and the MacBook 12". So they'll make the iPhone Air market it with their new 5G modem to sound cooler and stuff while putting in an A18 to match with the current gen iPhone while sacrificing on battery life, cameras, that type of thing. Maybe the normal iPhone will be pushed out of the market with just the iPhone Air and the iPhone Pro like how they did it with the MacBook. It makes sense
It might be the standard iPhone, then you’ll have the cool iPhone Air, then you’ll have the high-end iPhone Pro. It’s like the iPad, iPad Air, and iPad Pro. Maybe even the MacBook, MacBook Air, and MacBook Pro.
if the iPhone 17e has the a18 processor, 8gb of ram and apple intelligence, will the iPhone 15 also get a huge price cut? Specs wise, the new SE blows the 15 out of the water.
Most folks have adapted to larger phones, since going with a Pro Max many years ago I could never see going back. The Pro size is perfect as well, with everything our phones can do now you want the maximum comfortable screen you can get and the Pro screen size is just that.
Those w cricket can land a annual uprage once every year. I was gonna biy ine but decided to wait bc as of Febi can land one at the bug store for, hmm...300 or so. So w base ram and base 128 storage, this is the iphone that brings all prepaid users to iOS.
I bet they do away with the numbered naming scheme for the next coming iPhone line up and leave them as “iPhone SE, iPhone Air, iPhone Pro, and iPhone Pro Max (or Ultra!) This could happen in favor of a future where the iPhone isn’t refreshed quite as often
Already before SE1 came out the rumored name was 5SE or 5E. But why 16E and not 14E if it's based on 14? No matter what the name will be it's a good value phone for most people. Probably...
Samsung FE is very popular in india. In Apple SE or 16e we will get 3200 mah, outdated hardware, slow charging, single camera, no charger, etc. Most of 2020 SE or 2022SE users are saying battery is not good or some people already replaced so I think apple should have to consider many points before fixing its price.
I think its probably going to be still iphone se 4 but it will "replace" the base iphone model (ie the iphone 17). Quotations over replace because I dont think there will be an SE or SEs ( SE and SE plus) every year. Then later in the year they will release the iphone 17 pros and the iphone 17 "air". So between the SEs and the air, those people that would have brought the base iphone 17s would be covered. The iphone air will probably will every year but it would only be one screen size. How certain are we of the A18 chip? I would assume apple will put the M5 chips into the iphone given that they are able and already doing so with the m4 chips in ipads which are very much identical to ios unless physically the m chips are too large for iphones.
I was going to get an iPhone 16, but wanted more memory than the base model. And ended up getting a new open box iPhone 15 Pro 512gb for less than a new iPhone 16. Also now don’t have to mess with cases with a dumb cutout for Camera Control.
If Apple were to call it the 16 e instead of the SE would that not mean they’d be pressured to make a 17, 18, 19e etc? I feel the SE name is fine because you don’t get a refresh ever year and we’re used to that. Making it take the 16’s number will make customers feel it’s seriously out dated in two years. Which makes me think that would go against them more than just keeping it as the SE
That’s why calling it _iPhone 16C_ also makes sense. They really should! C doesn’t stand for “cheapness” in 5C but “carbon neutral” + “eConomical ” + maybe “classic” as well. 😂😂😂
I'm actually on the S10e right now! It's the best phone I've ever owned! 7 iphones and when the eX iPhone came out I was so disappointed I switched to Samsung!
Google call their lower end models 8a / 7a etc, where the 8a released around the same time as the 9 and the 7a released around the same time as the 8. I suppose when the 16e comes out, it will be not that much before the 17 comes out.
*sigh.. I know the chances is near 0% but I really hope they stick with LCD But thanks for the update, at least I know what name to look out for these next months
I believe you said your wife has family in the Philippines and it looks like you are there right now. My wife is from the Philippines and after being married for 15 years, I still have yet to visit there. Hopefully, someday soon I will make the trip out there although it would be a very long flight with 1 to 2 stops along the way.
Haven’t heard anything about whether this SE/16E will be getting Camera Control. I’m guessing it isn’t, but then I’m left wondering about whether the phone gets the “Visual Intelligence” features that are tied to the CC button…
iPhone reviews/Techtubers/enthusiasts: "They are FINALLY ditching the evil Lightning port." Regular people who will buy this phone: "F*ck, they changed the cable? Now Ive got to replace them all." I get it, USB C is better, faster charging, faster data transfer. And YES I know Apple is being compelled to change due to the EU. However, I get kind of tired of Techtubbers always going orgasmic over this when itll be a nuisance to regular people. I just upgraded my phone and got a iPhone 14 specifically because I didnt wanted to push off updating all my cables just a bit longer. All you Techtubbers get on the same damn talking point and beat it into the ground. Like those who talk about a phone being "comfortable in the hand" or my personal favorite "itll help me be more productive."
and also when it comes to the ipad pro.. damn it's SO ANNOYING that lumafusion has sometimes SO MUCH TROUBLE working properly and also the magic mouse often stops working the way it should, and then also tapping apps with my finger doesn't work anymore. but hey, it ''just woks'' doesn't it ?
The ‘E’ could mean essential, since it’ll basically have the bare essential features from the 16’s

I feel the SE name is fine because you don’t get a refresh ever year and we’re used to that.
Making it take the 16’s number will make customers feel it’s seriously out dated in two years.
Which makes me think that would go against them more than just keeping it as the SE
And then this iPhone will be Apple's first carbon neutral iPhone.
I mean... It makes sense 🤷♂
I just hope that it's the size of the iPhone 13 mini.
That’s why calling it _iPhone 16C_ also makes sense. They really should! C doesn’t stand for “cheapness” in 5C but “carbon neutral” + “eConomical ” + maybe “classic” as well. 😂😂😂
i hope they keep the SE branding
My man with the Aussie shirt
That new modem makes me nervous
The 2016 SE was the best version of iPhone 5 . I’m still using it in 2025 .
I'm actually on the S10e right now! It's the best phone I've ever owned! 7 iphones and when the eX iPhone came out I was so disappointed I switched to Samsung!
Google call their lower end models 8a / 7a etc, where the 8a released around the same time as the 9 and the 7a released around the same time as the 8.
I suppose when the 16e comes out, it will be not that much before the 17 comes out.
I’m currently using an iPhone 13 Pro 1TB, and if I need a replacement once my phone is unusable, I’ll get this SE4 with the highest storage available
I want the mini back. I got a 16 and the size just isn’t growing on me.
fe models basically are made too keep all the premium features that the fans like and tweaking it to keep cost low
*sigh.. I know the chances is near 0% but I really hope they stick with LCD
But thanks for the update, at least I know what name to look out for these next months
I am excited for the se 4 from my iphone 12. But i am sad that there wont be a 0.5x lense :/
I believe you said your wife has family in the Philippines and it looks like you are there right now. My wife is from the Philippines and after being married for 15 years, I still have yet to visit there. Hopefully, someday soon I will make the trip out there although it would be a very long flight with 1 to 2 stops along the way.
I hate camera bumps if this camera bump is almost flush I’m buying it.
I still think the SE branding should be referencing Simplified Edition.
What did R stand for in xR
Literally nothing. Apple confirmed it doesn't stand for anything
Rectum 🤷♂️
@@cadenchurchill4296fits nicely up there, pro tip put phone on vibrate for fun
XR-etarded.
@@p-can5487 rainbow? idk
They probably gonna call it the IPhone 16 Eir
Hearing iPhone M
As in MID
I always thought SE stands for ‘Essential’
Haven’t heard anything about whether this SE/16E will be getting Camera Control. I’m guessing it isn’t, but then I’m left wondering about whether the phone gets the “Visual Intelligence” features that are tied to the CC button…
Cheap? Yeah it’ll definitely be cheaper but reliable? The iPhone has been pretty buggy and laggy lately because of iOS.
iPhone reviews/Techtubers/enthusiasts: "They are FINALLY ditching the evil Lightning port."
Regular people who will buy this phone: "F*ck, they changed the cable? Now Ive got to replace them all."
I get it, USB C is better, faster charging, faster data transfer. And YES I know Apple is being compelled to change due to the EU. However, I get kind of tired of Techtubbers always going orgasmic over this when itll be a nuisance to regular people. I just upgraded my phone and got a iPhone 14 specifically because I didnt wanted to push off updating all my cables just a bit longer. All you Techtubbers get on the same damn talking point and beat it into the ground. Like those who talk about a phone being "comfortable in the hand" or my personal favorite "itll help me be more productive."
Whatever it’ll be called, i need it already. My 12 is walking on crutches:(
Google Pixels better
16E sounds like economy, more budget feeling than se
Will the ePhone have an annual upgrade cycle as well? 😅
ePhone. I like that
What if it stands for similar edition?
and also when it comes to the ipad pro.. damn it's SO ANNOYING that lumafusion has sometimes SO MUCH TROUBLE working properly and also the magic mouse often stops working the way it should, and then also tapping apps with my finger doesn't work anymore.
but hey, it ''just woks'' doesn't it ?
I have an iPhone 15. Should I get the 16E? I want apple intelligence and that new modem mainly.
Maybe
I spent 5 seconds trying to remove that red dot on my screen…
They’ve had “Edition” named products, I guess it’s not a special edition?
Basically a mom or dad phone
E could also mean essential
Maybe not 8 years, but 5 could be more or less
Fourth ?
Right on - It’s just a phone
