The iPhone 17e will feature an upgraded A19 chip from the iPhone 17 lineup, plus MagSafe charging, and move Apple\u2019s in-house cellular chips. Just as importantly, the company apparently plans to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.theverge.com\/news\/869272\/apple-iphone-18-price-increase-kuo-report\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">keep the price<\/a> at $599, despite soaring <a href=\"https:\/\/www.theverge.com\/news\/839353\/pc-ram-shortage-pricing-spike-news\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">RAM<\/a> and storage prices.<\/p>\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1ymtmqpi _17nnmdy1 _17nnmdy0 _1xwtict1\">Gurman says Apple is planning to pitch the iPhone 17e aggressively in emerging markets and to enterprises. He claims that, with almost no changes expected from the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.theverge.com\/news\/873923\/google-pixel-10a-launch-date-reveal-teaser\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Pixel 10a<\/a> and Samsung focused on the higher end of the market, Apple sees an opening.<\/p>\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1ymtmqpi _17nnmdy1 _17nnmdy0 _1xwtict1\">We also expect Apple to launch an updated iPad and iPad Air around the same time, alongside the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.theverge.com\/tech\/871901\/upgraded-macbook-pros\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">spec-bumped MacBook Pros<\/a> and a MacBook Air with an M5 processor. The base-model iPad will be moving to an A18 chip, which means it will support Apple Intelligence, while the iPad Air will move to an M4 and switch to an OLED display.<\/p>\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1ymtmqpi _17nnmdy1 _17nnmdy0 _1xwtict1\">Gurman says most of these launches should be expected by early March.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Almost exactly one year after launching the iPhone 16e, Apple is preparing to launch the 17e, according to&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":462089,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[16],"tags":[1572,77113,49,48,3693,1575,190,44,64,61],"class_list":{"0":"post-462088","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-mobile","8":"tag-apple","9":"tag-apple-rumors","10":"tag-ca","11":"tag-canada","12":"tag-ipad","13":"tag-iphone","14":"tag-mobile","15":"tag-news","16":"tag-tech","17":"tag-technology"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/462088","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=462088"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/462088\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/462089"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=462088"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=462088"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=462088"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
