Some in here are missing the point. 99% of people aren't going on Amazon, Ebay, Swappa or anywhere else besides the carrier to buy phones.

Just like 99% of people aren't paying $600 up front for the phone, it'll be on contract for 2-3 years. Before it the cheapest iPhone 16 you could get was at $800. $599 is still an easier sell than $799 even with basic features stripped out. I see it selling well enough even if the XR back in the day did what it's meant to do for the lineup way better

All that said it's overpriced, but that's every Apple device lol. And no, there isn't a market for small screens anymore. Apple gave those people online screaming for one exactly what they wanted two years ago and it was one of the worst selling iPhones ever. Possibly the worst, but they don't give data like they used to anymore

You don't really need magsafe on the phone. Hell I have magesafe on my S24 Ultra with a compatible case.

16e gang we here! Ordered one from work. Droid set 4 life but I just got an iPad too so I'm bout to see what's good in 2025. The missing features seem kind of random but it is what it is. I feel like its a decent way to get into the ecosystem, not as an upgrade.
