Pros
Our editorial view of this model’s strengths and limitations.
A high-contrast screen
The Apple iPhone 17e has a 6.1-inch OLED screen with deep blacks that give photos and video more depth. It also suits reading with a dark theme.
Easy to carry
At 170 g, the Apple iPhone 17e makes sense if a large phone feels awkward in a pocket or in one hand. The smaller screen is part of that trade-off.
4K video recording
The camera can record 4K video. That gives you more detail for a larger screen and some room for cropping during editing, though the files take up more storage.
