Digital Chat Station has leaked new details about the upcoming iPhone 18e, Apple’s budget-friendly successor to the iPhone 17e. Expected to launch in spring 2027 alongside the iPhone 18 and iPhone Air 2, the device is rumored to feature a 6.12-inch LTPS OLED display with a 60Hz refresh rate — meaning no high refresh screen for the 'e' series just yet. It will reportedly be powered by the Apple A20 chipset built on a 2nm process, paired with 9GB of RAM.
Camera upgrades include a single 48MP rear camera (matching the iPhone 17e) and a potential 24MP front-facing camera, up from 12MP. Overall, the iPhone 18e appears to be a modest upgrade unless Apple improves battery life or other features. Pricing and availability remain unconfirmed, but current iPhone 17e prices range from £539 to £899 depending on storage.
