iPhone 17e

If you’re in Canada and deciding between these two, the iPhone 17e makes a lot of sense once you factor in longevity and video consistency. And once you bump storage to 256GB, the price gap shrinks a lot, so the “value” argument changes.

Pros

+Strong long-term performance with the A19
+Reliable Face ID in any lighting
+Consistently better video quality
+MagSafe ecosystem and faster wireless charging

Cons

-60Hz display
-No always-on display
