The iPhone 17 series, released last September, achieved great success in the market. In less than half a year after its release, the number of activations in China exceeded 20 million units. Meanwhile, the iPhone 17 series will soon add a new member – the iPhone 17e.
According to the latest information from foreign media Mac World and multiple accessory manufacturers, the release date of the iPhone 17e has been set for February 19th. Additionally, Apple may not hold a special press conference for the iPhone 17e this time, but instead directly put it on sale.
Obviously, it will be the successor to the iPhone 16e, positioned lower than the iPhone 17, but the price will also be correspondingly reduced, helping Apple further capture the mobile phone market in the 4,000 – yuan price range.
Powered by the A19 Chip, High – Refresh Rate and Dual Cameras Still Missing
Once again, it’s Mark Gurman from Bloomberg, whom we’re familiar with, who exposed information about the iPhone 17e. His disclosures have always been quite accurate.
Specifically, the iPhone 17e will be equipped with the A19 chip, just like the iPhone 17, and will continue to use Apple’s self – developed baseband, which should be an upgraded version of the C1 on the iPhone 16e. The iPhone 17e still won’t have a high – refresh – rate screen and will remain at 60Hz. It may have the Dynamic Island. In terms of the camera, as expected, the iPhone 17e will still have a single camera, and the ultra – wide – angle lens on the iPhone 17 has been removed.
Based on this, the positioning of the iPhone 17e is very clear. That is, it directly cuts down on aspects such as the screen, camera, and functions of the iPhone 17, but the most core performance remains intact. Correspondingly, the price of the iPhone 17e is also much cheaper, with a starting price of about 4,499 yuan. With the domestic government subsidy, it can be further reduced to 3,999 yuan, making it a bit more attractive to users.
