Apple's iPhone 17E Is Near and It Needs More Than MagSafe

The iPhone 17e will include the A19 chip, faster C1X modem, and MagSafe charging while keeping a single rear camera and notch design, sources say.

  • Apple is reportedly planning a February launch, with Macwelt reporting a possible announcement of the iPhone 17e on February 19 and leaks suggesting that date.
  • Leaks from case and accessory makers produced the timing claims despite Apple not sharing release dates, and the iPhone 16e was introduced around the same time last year.
  • Hardware leaks say the iPhone 17e will include an A19 chip, C1X modem, N1 network chip, MagSafe wireless charging, a single rear camera possibly 48MP, and 7.5W reverse wireless charging.
  • Market watchers say the 17e will succeed the 16e, with some sources advising skepticism about the February 19 date while Google’s Pixel 10a launches on February 18.
  • Macwelt first published the report and Macworld translated it, while Japanese site Macotakara also published details today; Apple has not confirmed any details and some sources advise caution about the February 19 claim.
