The camera is one of the biggest differentiators between the iPhone 16e and the rest of the iPhone lineup. The iPhone 16e features a single 48MP camera and misses out on software features like ProRaw, macro mode, the latest Photographic Styles, and more. How does the iPhone 16es camera stack up against its siblings? The experts at Lux Camera, behind apps like Halide and Kino, have the answer. iPhone 16e vs iPhone 16 Pro On the Lux website, Sebastiaan de With compares the iPhone 16 Pro and the iPhone 16e: Notice anything a little different? Aside from color (iPhone 16e consistently took pinker, warmer shots) the iPhone 16e gives you a slightly narrower field of view. Its camera isnt quite as wide angle as the iPhone 16 Pros, by about a 2mm focal length (26mm vs. 24mm equivalent). In practice, that felt nice to me you lack a separate zoom lens, so a little bit closer of a zoom is a nice trade-off.Crop things in close and you see that the smaller sensor on iPhone 16e does have less detail and a bit more smudging. This gets more aggressive in lower light. Its really not a shabby shot detail-wise, though this camera packs a punch.In all, the iPhone 16e has times where it shoots great shots not quite on par with iPhone 16, but certainly on par with previous non-Pro iPhones or even the iPhone 14 Pro, a previous favorite of mine.Head to the Lux website to read the full review of the iPhone 16e camera.
