I don’t know who needs to hear this but if you’re interested in the new #apple #iPhone 16e, don’t buy it.
Buy the 15 instead. It *is* a year older, and it *doesn’t* get “Apple Intelligence” BUT it has a better camera and a whole *extra* camera too, MagSafe wireless charging, ultra wideband, a better screen and Dynamic Island as opposed to the “notch”.
Only thing that the 16e has is the very weak Apple Intelligence which I would argue is a benefit to avoid. #tech #recommendations
