Apple is preparing to launch the iPhone 17e in 2026, prompting discounts on the iPhone 16e. The budget-friendly model is now available for Rs 52,390, with additional savings through bank offers and exchanges.
Apple is gearing up for the launch of its first iPhone of 2026, the iPhone 17e, with rumors already surfacing about its features. As anticipation builds, the iPhone 16e, Apple's entry into the budget e series, has seen a significant price reduction to make room for the newcomer.
The iPhone 16e, originally launched at Rs 59,900, is now priced at Rs 52,390. Buyers can further reduce the cost by up to Rs 4,000 using bank offers, bringing the effective price to Rs 48,390. Exchanging an old device offers additional savings, making it an attractive option for budget-conscious consumers seeking the iPhone experience.
This model features the A18 chipset, similar to the one in the iPhone 16 but with one fewer GPU core, ensuring solid performance for everyday tasks and gaming like BGMI. It sports a 6.1-inch OLED display with vibrant colors, though it includes a notch and is limited to a 60Hz refresh rate.
On the camera front, the iPhone 16e includes a single 48-megapixel rear camera and a 12-megapixel front camera, capable of producing quality shots suitable for social media sharing. Notably, it is the most affordable iPhone to support Apple Intelligence, promising access to future AI features that will roll out to newer models.
