alchemistmuffin<p>So about earlier post……</p><p>The E in iPhone 16e stands for Essentials. Like how some carriers offer budget friendly option of plans with essentials only stuff, no bells and whistles, etc. </p><p>This is what Apple plans to do for iPhone going forward and Apple Watch as well. </p><p><a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/iPhone16e" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>iPhone16e</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/Essentials" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Essentials</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/AppleEvent" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>AppleEvent</span></a></p>

alchemistmuffin<p>So, that’s iPhone 16e, the budget friendly phone that’s super powerful in features and ready for Apple Intelligence. </p><p><a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/AppleEvent" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>AppleEvent</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/iPhone16e" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>iPhone16e</span></a></p>
alchemistmuffin<p>IPhone 16e also have crash detection and Emergency Satellite call and texting for times when there is no cellular service.

alchemistmuffin<p>The iPhone 16e has the same Ceramic Shield as iPhone 16 lineup, so it’s very resistant to shatter. It’s also made with same aerospace aluminum as iPhone 16 lineu. </p><p>It comes in to color, black and white, and if you want more colors, Apple has case just for you. </p><p><a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/AppleEvent" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>AppleEvent</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/iPhone16e" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>iPhone16e</span></a></p>

alchemistmuffin<p>With new camera, you can capture stunning Night Mode photos, shoot insanely razor sharp videos in 4K. </p><p>And it also has best TrueDepth front camera like all iPhone 16 has, so you can take great selfies. </p><p><a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/AppleEvent" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>AppleEvent</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/iPhone16e" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>iPhone16e</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/Camera" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Camera</span></a></p>
alchemistmuffin<p>Speaking of camera, iPhone 16e has 48MP 2 in 1 Fusion Wide Angle lens camera. It doesn’t have super wide angle, but it is capable of capturing insanely sharp picture with single lens. And it can zoom like telephoto lens like iPhone 16 lineup can. </p><p><a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/AppleEvent" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>AppleEvent</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/iPhone16e" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>iPhone16e</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/Camera" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Camera</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/Lens" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Lens</span></a></p>
alchemistmuffin<p>The iPhone 16e has Action Button, like other iPhone 16 lineup. </p><p>But, it has one additional feature you can access with Action Button, thanks to its A18 chip: Visual Intelligence. </p><p><a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/AppleEvent" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>AppleEvent</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/iPhone16e" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>iPhone16e</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/AppleIntelligence" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>AppleIntelligence</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/ActionButton" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>ActionButton</span></a></p>
alchemistmuffin<p>Apple Intelligence is avalible in English right now……. BUT, don’t worrry folks. </p><p>Apple’s been busy teaching it’s AI new language, and it’ll be avalible in additional language this spring. (SUBJECT TO REGULATORY APPPROVAL) </p><p><a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/AppleEvent" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>AppleEvent</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/AppleIntelligence" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>AppleIntelligence</span></a></p>
alchemistmuffin<p>At the heart of iPhone 16e is iOS 18, but that’s expected. </p><p>What makes it shine though, is Apple Intelligence, Apple’s way of doing AI, done right. </p><p>Create emojis with genmoji, or use Siri with ChatGPT to help with dinner ideas. </p><p><a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/AppleEvent" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>AppleEvent</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/iPhone16e" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>iPhone16e</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/iOS18" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>iOS18</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/AppleIntelligence" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>AppleIntelligence</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/ChatGPT" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>ChatGPT</span></a></p>

alchemistmuffin<p>With iPhone 16e, thanks to its incredibly new battery design, and power efficiency of A18 chip, this beast, has incredible 26 hour battery life on all video playback alone. </p><p>That means more time to just browse, chat, create memes with Image Playground, etc. </p><p><a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/AppleEvent" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>AppleEvent</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/iPhone16e" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>iPhone16e</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/iPhone" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>iPhone</span></a></p>
