Multiple reports from owners of the new iPhone 16e claim that Bluetooth audio keeps dropping out — but there appears to be a fix on the way.

In our iPhone 16e review, our main problems were its price, lack of ultrawide camera and Dynamic Island notch, with no sign of Bluetooth-related problems. But given the quality of the design, photo performance from the cameras it does have, Apple Intelligence compatibility and the OLED screen, we still really like the iPhone 16e.

It’s been two weeks since the iPhone 16e arrived in stores and in the hands of early adopters. Unfortunately, some of them have been experiencing issues with Bluetooth audio, especially when using wireless headphones.

A leaker is hyping up the upcoming release of the iPhone 17 Pro Max, but the image being used shows something that is more likely to be part of case production, rather than a component of the smartphone itself.

What do you want in your next iPhone? I bet better battery life is on your shortlist and a new leak says it might be coming.

We've got some more evidence showing the upcoming redesign – and it sounds as though production is on schedule.
