A Weibo user known as "Dingjiao Digital" disclosed that the iPhone 16e has not fared well in the market. Apple's move to introduce a budget-friendly iPhone has failed to meet anticipated outcomes. However, it's worth noting that the development of follow-up models for these two iPhone lines is still in the pipeline. The iPhone 17e is projected to hit the shelves in the spring of 2026. On the other hand, the release of the iPhone Air 2 might be pushed back even further due to unforeseen delays. In the meantime, the iPhone 17 series continues to garner robust demand, with production orders showing a steady upward trend.
