The best upgrade!!!
Excellent upgrade from my iPhone 12. The battery life firstly is amazing in comparison, actually lasting all day!! The camera quality is really good and super sharp! Great features and lovely glass button effect: I got the matte black which also looks very slick! Absolutely chuffed to bits

Great features.Small drawback is no finger button
Only had iphone 16e one week, but the length of time the battery lasts is much better than my 5 year old iphone16e SE. The screen size is a great improvement, although the phone itself is not much larger. I hated the idea of losing the fingerprint button, but I added a virtual button and can cope. I won’t be using Face ID so I’ll no longer use apple wallet for spending. I tried it once but it took money off the wrong card, Face ID is too fast, there was more control to change cards before pressing your fingerprint before.

Camera it’s on point and the sound it’s quality.
i’m so happy i bought this iphone, honestly I had no idea it could provide so much for a £499 device. It’s on point and it does the job just like the other expensive models. Thanks Argos!
