Our review
On design and display, the Apple iPhone 16e gives you a 6.1-inch Super Retina XDR OLED, 60Hz in a 167g body — that keeps the phone comfortable in one hand and easy in a pocket. For performance, the Apple A18 is paired with 8GB of RAM and 128GB of storage — that is strong pace for apps, multitasking and most games. For cameras, you get 48MP single Fusion camera, plus a 12MP selfie camera — that covers the everyday essentials well — family snaps, holidays and social posts. Battery is 4,005mAh, and charging is Qi wireless, USB-C (no MagSafe) — that should suit most Aussies for a full day of typical use. Here in Australia it sells for A$999 including GST — that puts it in a competitive spot for what you get, and Aussie retailers discount phones like this often, so it pays to shop around.
Who it's for: Gamers and everyday buyers after a reliable all-rounder.
