A recent leak revealed the key specifications of the Apple iPhone 17e, which is expected to debut by early 2026. Now, a new development reveals that the iPhone 17e will not feature a chunky notch like the iPhone 16e. A render based on imagination (via MyDrivers) suggests what to expect from the 17e’s display design. Here’s a look at what’s revealed.

The concept images suggest the iPhone 17e will closely resemble a single-camera version of the standard iPhone 17. The most significant shift involves the display interface; the device will finally abandon the legacy notch for the Dynamic Island, unifying the aesthetic across Apple’s portfolio. However, the screen technology might not see a corresponding leap, likely retaining a 6.1-inch panel with a standard 60Hz refresh rate.

Performance-wise, the handset is expected to run on the next-generation A19 chip, though it may feature reduced GPU cores to distinguish it from the standard model.

This targets users on older devices like the iPhone 11 who need a reliable upgrade. Combining the new hardware with the inherent fluidity of iOS, the device is projected to maintain smooth performance for several years.

A previous report revealed that the other major upgrade would be in the selfie camera, which may jump to an 18-megapixel sensor with Center Stage support. The rear is likely to house a single 48-megapixel wide camera.

Internal connectivity could also see a shift with the inclusion of Apple’s custom C1 modem and N1 wireless chip, designed to improve data transfer speeds and energy efficiency. If these specifications hold true, the phone will narrow the performance gap between Apple’s budget and flagship offerings.
