A new budget-friendly iPhone is now expected in February 2026

While little we know at this point, rumours have already started circulating around the upcoming iPhone 17e.

Last year, Apple introduced the iPhone 16e, a more affordable iPhone equipped with the A18 processor, but with some compromises in features.

The new iPhone 17e is expected to keep the same 6.1-inch screen size, but most likely with a Dynamic Island. It’s unlikely that we’ll see an always-on display or ProMotion refresh rate. It’s also expected to use the A19 processor, though with slightly less power than the standard iPhone 17. I’m personally excited for this iPhone launch!
