NEW YORK – Techgiant Apple is gearing up to unveil its latest innovation, iPhone 17e, promising host of advanced features that are set to excite tech enthusiasts worldwide. The upcoming model is expected to feature thinner bezels, giving it a sleeker look, while retaining an OLED panel similar to the iPhone 14, just like the current iPhone 16e.
A large portion of these cutting-edge panels will be supplied by Chinese tech giant BOE, with the rest coming from Samsung Display and LG Display.

Currently, the iPhone 16e comes with a notch screen similar to the iPhone 13 and 14 and is powered by the A18 chip. Experts note that while adding thinner bezels is a cost-effective and simple upgrade for Apple, including the Dynamic Island is far more complex. It requires sensor reconfiguration, a new TrueDepth system, and advanced masking design, which might not align with the strategy for Apple’s budget-friendly e-series.
