Similar to the budget-friendly iPhone SE line, the iPhone 16e achieved its low price point by reusing components from previous iPhone models. This model is expected to continue with its successor, the iPhone 17e.
According to a recent report from The Elec , stemming from the fact that Chinese display manufacturer BOE has secured orders for this model, the iPhone 17e's OLED screen is expected to reuse the 6.1-inch OLED panel with the same specifications as the iPhone 16e.
However, the most notable upgrade is that Apple will "thin the bezels" of this component. Normally, changing the screen design is a major change, but The Elec believes Apple can easily achieve this.
If the display panel's electronic circuitry is already designed with enough space around the bezel to allow for a thinner bezel, then reducing the bezel size wouldn't require a costly panel redesign. This aligns perfectly with the cost-optimization strategy of the budget iPhone line.
Another factor that remains unchanged is the thin-film transistor technology used for the display. The iPhone 17e is expected to still use the same LTPS technology as the iPhone 16e.
Besides improvements to the screen bezels, analyst Jeff Pu previously revealed that the iPhone 17e could launch in early 2026 with an 18MP front camera supporting Center Stage, similar to the high-end iPhone 17 series.
The new front camera is considered a major improvement over previous iPhone SE generations. According to the description, the square sensor allows users to take photos or videos vertically or horizontally without rotating the device. The Center Stage feature also automatically adjusts the frame, zooming in or rotating according to the user's movements during video calls.
