iPhone 17e Mass Production Begins

iPhone 17e Mass Production Begins

Apple is starting to make the new iPhone 17e, which will be the cheapest iPhone.

It will have a 6.1-inch screen with a special feature called Dynamic Island but no super smooth refresh rate.

It will use a slightly slower A19 chip and run on iOS 26.

The phone might come in black and white colors and could have better selfie cameras.

It will also support MagSafe charging and have thinner edges around the screen.

The production will begin after the big tech show called CES, which ends on January 9th.

Some people think it might be available to buy by late February, but Apple hasn't said anything official yet.
