Apple is set to unveil the iPhone 17 series between September 11–13, 2025, with pre-orders opening about a week later. In India, leaked pricing suggests:
- iPhone 17 Pro: starts at ₹139,999
- iPhone 17 Pro Max: starts at ₹164,999
Design & Display
Both models are rumored to adopt a fresh design shift:
- Frame: Aluminum replaces titanium for a lighter feel
- Back: Half-glass matte finish for improved grip
- Camera Housing: Wide rectangular module (vs. square bump today)
| Model | Display Size | Resolution & Refresh Rate (Expected) |
|---|---|---|
| iPhone 17 Pro | 6.3 inches | 2556 × 1179 px, 120 Hz |
| iPhone 17 Pro Max | 6.9 inches | 2796 × 1290 px, 120 Hz |
Camera Upgrades
Apple is boosting both selfie and rear shooters:
- Front: 24 MP TrueDepth sensor
- Rear Triple-Lens: 48 MP wide, ultra-wide, and telephoto
- Features: 8K video recording, dual-video mode, mechanical aperture for superior low-light and portrait shots
Performance & Battery
Under the hood, the iPhone 17 Pro and Pro Max share Apple’s next-gen A19 Pro chipset paired with up to 12 GB RAM. Battery capacities are expected to differ:
- iPhone 17 Pro: ≈ 4,500 mAh
- iPhone 17 Pro Max: ≈ 5,000 mAh
This should translate to all-day power on the Pro and even longer endurance on the Pro Max, especially when gaming or streaming at high refresh rates.
