The iPhone 17e is set to launch soon, with an expected unveiling in spring 2024. Recent reports from China indicate that the device will feature a 6.1-inch display with a 60Hz refresh rate and the Dynamic Island functionality, implying a hole-punch design that replaces the notch found on the iPhone 16e. Additionally, it will be equipped with a scaled-down version of the Apple A19 chip, which is also utilized in the iPhone 17.
Positioned as the most affordable option in the iPhone 17 lineup, these details echo previous rumors. While nothing is confirmed yet, a consensus among multiple sources often lends credibility to such claims. Nevertheless, past speculations suggested that the 17e might retain the same screen as its predecessor, including the notch, albeit with thinner bezels.
