Great Battery Life

dmjjr . 9 hours ago

Battery life is excellent-really miss the “home” button. Getting used to “swiping” instead. Easy to transfer files from old phone

Phone=Great / Reception=not so good

Knarf . 7 days ago

Yes, I'd recommend this product.

The phone seems to work well but Verizon coverage is not very good at all. I'm in the 3rd largest city in NY and I lose coverage all the time. Verizon coverage used to be great now its almost terrible.

Mediocre

Suzanne . 10 days ago

The lack of a home button, the irritating glass OS, the same old problem with charging and headphones, a little too big to make typing comfortable; just another iPhone with mediocre UX.

Tap to pay inconsistent

Allen . 11 days ago

Very nice and easy to use

Disappointed

Sandy . 15 days ago

I like the battery life. I find too much goes on and flies around. I get confused at times, but I don’t like and absolutely hate is a dark notch at the top of the phone that I didn’t know would be there. when I watch YouTube, it cuts off the top of the heads of the people on the screen. I hate the button to shut off the ringer. It’s too delicate. I’ll pick up my phone and accidentally shut off the ringer and I’m not even aware of it. on my old phone. It was an enclosed notch that you had to pull down, there was no way that you would accidentally have a shut off your ringer. I also don’t like having a little microphone over the words as I typed the message.

16e - Is there a home button to push? What charger does the 16e use?

Answer from Verizon Customer Support2 months

The iPhone 16e doesn't have a physical home button but uses Face ID and a programmable Action Button, which you can set to mimic a home button for a single press, and it charges via USB-C, requiring a USB-C cable and a 20W+ adapter for fast charging, also supporting standard Qi wireless charging.
