Apple has officially announced its latest smartphone, the iPhone 17e, following last year’s iPhone 16e. Priced at £599, the iPhone 17e is more affordable than the iPhone 17 and 17 Pro, offering 256GB of storage as standard, double the capacity of its predecessor.
The iPhone 17e features the powerful A19 chip for enhanced performance and the latest C1X cellular modem for faster speeds. It boasts a 6.1-inch Super Retina XDR display with Ceramic Shield glass for protection and MagSafe for faster wireless charging and accessory attachment.
Photography enthusiasts will appreciate the 48MP Fusion camera, providing advanced sensor technology for improved zoom capabilities and 4K video recording. Safety features include Emergency SOS via satellite and Crash Detection for automatic emergency service contact.
Available in black, white, and a new soft pink finish, the iPhone 17e aims to offer exceptional value to customers. Kaiann Drance, Apple’s vice president of Worldwide iPhone Product Marketing, highlighted the device’s performance, storage, camera system, and durability, making it a compelling choice for those considering an upgrade within the iPhone 17 family.
