Video Description

The iPhone 16e is now the most affordable iPhone. So I've set it up to work as a dumbphone to see how it holds up as a $599 phone to simplify life. In this 1 week review, I'll go over everything that's new with the iPhone 16e, test the battery life, camera, operating system, A18 performance and compare it to the iPhone 16.
