According to numerous leaks and insider information, in the spring of 2026, Apple will release a new budget smartphone — iPhone 17e.

Contrary to analysts' skepticism, buyers warmly welcomed the iPhone 16e, and now no one doubts that with the same price, the new model will be popular. However, hardly anything new is expected in the iPhone 17e.

What is known

Analyst Jeff Pu from GF Securities reported that the iPhone 17e will not be much different from its predecessor: it will have the same design and identical specifications, but this time Apple will use the A19 chipset.

An important innovation will be the appearance of an 18 MP front-facing camera, as with the entire iPhone 17 lineup.

Recall that earlier the Chinese An insider has confirmed a variable aperture camera in the iPhone 18 Pro and a recognisable design in the iPhone 17e will get a Dynamic Island and a 6.1″ display with a 60 Hz refresh rate.
