iPhone 16E

[brianburi]

Well it appears to be here now as just had a notification from Apple.

Their cheapest iPhone in current family of phones. Cost 22,900 Baht.

In US 599 and UK 599

Time to upgrade from iPhone 13????

Not so sure as it still runs good,  though I looked at all the current 16's at the AIS shop and there is a noticeable difference - latest chip...

All the reviews are saying it is far too expensive

Obviously there are far cheaper android phones and last year bought the wife an Oppo Reno 11,  superb phone as its never out of her hand,,,

I am still using my Iphone 12 mini from 2020.

Not seen anything in the Iphone range since that would make me want to change it.

Must agree with you,  I have a redundant iPhone 6 in the drawer.

Lots of reviews and articles out there,

When I get around to it,  will go and have a good look.......

Those in the know say give it a miss and wait for the '17.....

As to if it is time to upgrade grade it depends on your reasons. It will run iOS 18 (the current version) it is going to run iOS 19 it will very probably run iOS 20, so all current applications will be running OK. It will almost certainly run the most restrictive applications like banking apps for the next few years.

It is likely to become outdated at the same time as your wife’s Oppo Reno 11 as Apple phones are typically supported for twice the time android phones are.

 

So if the amount of memory is not a problem, if the phone is not damaged, if it is not running too slowly, it’s good for years yet, if the battery isn’t holding enough of a a charge it is worth getting a genuine apple replacement battery (the apple batteries are good quality and value for money)
