Here I thought it was going to be a small screened cheap iPhone and I was excited for a minute.

I mean, they have done it. When I was looking at phones a few years back, it was genuinely a toss up between a Pixel 4a and an iPhone SE. If all you need it to be is a cameraphone, then both were good options.

Even now, the iPhone 16e is a relatively inexpensive phone when considering its featureset, but I would prefer a "mini" or newer SE variant instead.

That's exactly what I was thinking too. Like an iPhone nano or something. The laugh I let out when I saw what it actually was though, I really needed that today.

Very disappointed that’s not what this was.
