    This I Phone 16E replaced a lost I Phone 17. I love this phone 16E much more than the 17. The platform is much easier to navigate and is user friendly. The service at Best Buy was extraordinary. The young man helping us was so knowledgeable and courteous that we will consider all our electronic purchases there.

    I recently picked up the iPhone 16e, and I have to say—it’s one of the best tech purchases I’ve made all year. Apple packed in a surprising amount of power and polish for the price. Sure, it skips a few premium extras like MagSafe and a high refresh rate, but for hundreds less than the base iPhone 16, it’s a fantastic value. If you’re looking for a modern iPhone that doesn’t drain your wallet, the 16e hits the sweet spot.

    I bought this phone for my daughter for Christmas. It is her first cell phone and I activated it on a brand new line on Visible. She has been using it constantly for the past couple weeks and absolutely loves it!

    Love my iPhone 16e. Nice upgrade from iPhone 15 and at a nice price. Does not have a fancy camera, but I really like what is onboard for my type of picture taking.

    Got this for my young daughter. Its fast, does everything the the Pro version does but its small enough for her littlw hands and she doesnt need the super ultra processing of the flagship model.. we love it!

    The phone is great. However, Best Buy said I could get a credit based on my trade in (which I was transparent about its condition) and when I took it in, they denied the trade.

    I upgraded from an SE and wasn't sure about the new technology. As it turns out - I love the features: no home button, facial ID, larger screen, and improved audio / photo quality.
