Cupertino, December 24: iPhone 17e is a highly anticipated iPhone 16 successor, expected to launch in 2026. Next year, Apple is rumoured to introduce this single-camera device as part of its affordable iPhone lineup. After the success of the iPhone 17 series, which includes the iPhone 17, iPhone 17 Pro, and iPhone 17 Pro Max, the iPhone 17e is already generating buzz for its balance of performance and pricing.

Apple's iPhone 17e will offer better specifications and features compared to the 16e model; however, just like the previous generation, Apple is expected to focus on delivering a refined experience rather than radical design changes. Many new leaks suggest the smartphone could be priced between INR 60,000 and INR 65,000 in India. There is also speculation that Apple may skip the 128GB storage option and offer 256GB as the base variant. iPhone 18 Launch Rumours: Apple’s Upcoming Smartphone Expected in Spring 2026; Check Expected Key Features and Specifications.
