Apple has equipped the iPhone 16e with a 48-megapixel camera system, capable of shooting 4K video at 60 frames per second, promising high-quality photos and videos for users.
Additionally, the device will support Apple Intelligence, the company’s advanced AI tool, which is currently exclusive to the iPhone 15 and 16 lineups.
