Apple has equipped the iPhone 16e with a 3nm A18 chip, which first arrived on the iPhone 16 in September 2024, paired with up to 512GB of storage. The company doesn't typically reveal the amount of RAM on its smartphones, but we can assume that it has 8GB of RAM, as it offers support for Apple Intelligence features.

There's a single 48-megapixel rear camera with optical image stabilisation (OIS) on the iPhone 16e, and the handset also features a 12-megapixel TrueDepth camera on the front for selfies and video calls. It also includes the necessary sensors for Face ID, instead of the home button with Touch ID on the third generation iPhone SE.

You get stereo speakers on the iPhone 16e and the handset offers 5G, 4G LTE, Wi-Fi 6, Bluetooth 5.3, NFC, and GPS connectivity. It also offers support for Apple's Emergency SOS via satellite feature in select regions. Unlike its predecessor, it has a USB Type-C port, that supports 18W wired charging and 7.5W wireless charging.

Apple doesn't reveal the battery specifications of its smartphones, but these details are likely to emerge in the coming days, as part of device teardowns. The handset has an IP68 rating for dust and water resistance. It measures 146.7mmx71.5mmx7.8mm and weighs 167g.
