    Came from a Iphone 13 mini this is a huge upgrade. I don't need MagSafe. I don't care about DYNAMIC ISLAN. I don't take a lot of pictures so the camera I don't care about. The camera button most people don't like any way. If you wont all of these feature buy the Iphone 16. This is not replacement for people with older phones with trade in I paid 399.00

    Seemless transition from an older iPhone. The customer service salesperson was very good at stepping me through the process.

    If you've already saved up $600, I hate to torture you but be smart and save up a hundred more to get the 15, or get a used 15 pro right now for the same price. This is a terrible value phone. No magsafe, bad screen, no dynamic island, and they got rid of product red. Its only redeeming factor is the good battery life. This is NOT a budget phone anymore, Apple eliminated that.

    Not the best at all. The iPhone 14 is the same price and comparable if not better because it comes with two cameras and MagSafe. MagSafe being a staple in iPhone for a long time.

    Really Best Buy, I'm off to buy at Amazon

    I have been a loyal Best Buy customer for many years. Yet I cant now purchase an iPhone 16e phone outright full price to surprise my wife on her Birthday because BB needs the extra few bucks residual kickback they get for locking us into another carrier for three years for low Moflys... Best buy your the last brick and mortar chain left in the USA and this crap is why you'll be gone soon! Sorry if you were looking for iphone review - Mostly the same as last years with something added to insure obsolescence of your current phone.

    This is a bad product for too much money. Slow screen rate, one camera, no MagSafe, no more product red, no color options, no Dynamic Island.

    The 16 or the 16 Plus model is more suitable for your needs, as they offer similar features and pricing. I have personally tested the product, and it provides a comparable user experience to the 16 Plus model.
