Starting at $600 seems like a great deal for what you get

Think I’ll be getting one of these refurb in a few years when my 2020 SE is finally too old. Exactly what I’ve been looking for. I don’t want a huge phone my current SE is perfect for me.

This seems great, but I do find it amusing that their official „taken on iPhone“ photos have never looked anywhere close to a photo I’ve taken on any of my iPhones. I currently have a 17 pro max and they’re nice photos but they don’t even get close to that gallery lol.

Is this physically smaller than an regular iPhone 17?

When it was lower numbers, there was something truly innovative or new to add. Now it’s increase a number, up the price, add some AI slop and repeat.

They.. doubled base storage?
What is this, an FU to every other manufacturer who is struggling to get enough storage and RAM?

Glad they decided to add the MagSafe. The omission on the 16e made it less desirable for me. That said, I’m still a bit aways from replacing my 13 mini.

I’m a little bummed out that the newer SE / E equivalents don’t have buttons on the bottom anymore.
Been on my iPhone 8 since 2019 and it would be weird to then move to something without a dedicated home button.

Inflation so bad even the budget tier has a premium membership.

Omg but does it come in a new color? I’m so excited.

60hz. no buy for me
ricennoodle on
Was waiting for what they were gonna give us, just wanted 120hz at least. I just ordered Amazon Renewed Premium for a 15Pro instead. Hopefully it qualifies for AppleCare One like my MacBook Air M2 I added 2 years after purchase.

I’m currently on a 14 Pro and due for a new phone. Battery life is garbage and my charging port is non functional.
Anyone who is more technology literate than me, is the 17e camera gonna be a notable downgrade from what I have with a 14 Pro?

I think this will make a lot of people switch from Android to Apple. At $599, it’s cheap enough that it competes on price with the midrange Android phones. Combine that with good software support and you’ll see a lot of people finally be able to justify switching to Apple.
I’m a long time Android user, and probably still won’t go with iOS even with something like this as an option. But I can see the appeal of this phone for a lot of people. Most people want something that just has basic features and won’t need to replace every two years.
That being said, Android is getting a lot better in terms of software support, at least from some manufacturers like Samsung and Google Pixel. I think we are starting to see a shift in the industry, where most people’s phones are good enough many years after they got them, so they are going to have to support them for longer to lure in customers.
There just isn’t as much of a need for drastic changes to hardware. Google recently released the Pixel 10a, and it’s almost an exact copy of the 9a. People don’t really need anything that you couldn’t get 5 years ago in terms of hardware.

I’m on a 14 pro. Was considering waiting for the fold, but not sure I can justify the price when something like this is available.

Wth kind of comparison is this lmao

For €730 you might as well get the regular iPhone 17

Pretty boring colors, I’m going to hope that the 18 in the fall is more interesting.
Needing to maintain lightning cables *just* for my iPhone 13 Pro Max while everything else I own is on USB-C is kind of annoying.

Is nobody else fucking exhausted with these nonstop releases of new phones?

Seems ironic after the iphone 17 was noted as the most traded in phone

Seems like an iPhone 16 without the ultra wide?

The Audacity to write “at a wallet friendly price” on their website is mind boggling.

Good thing I didn’t buy a 16e like 7 days ago
