High price and low specs=tough love. iPhone 16e has been launched and Apple fans are not loving it. The iPhone 16e, Apple's budget-friendly version of the iPhone 16 series, has finally arrived, after being hyped up to the skies, and the internet is not holding back in showering some really tough love on it. Some Apple fans are loving it, but others ridiculing the phone for its specs and price. Memes are everywhere on social media, and Android users have taken to Instagram and Twitter, calling it overpriced for what it does.
One user wrote, "60K for a 60Hz display? Looks like someone played April Fool's early." Another commented, "Just buy an Android, this isn't worth it." Meanwhile, Samsung fans quickly said the Galaxy S25 is a much better option.
With that having been said, just check iPhone 16e vs Samsung Galaxy S25 comparison:
