iPhone 17 launch is only a few weeks away: 5 key things we know
Apple is gearing up to unveil the iPhone 17 series, which insiders are calling the company’s “most ambitious lineup yet.” Here are five major takeaways so far:
1/5
New iPhone 17 Air replaces Plus: Apple is dropping the underperforming Plus model for a slimmer “Air” version. At just 6.25mm thick, it could be the thinnest iPhone ever, though concerns about battery life (2,800mAh) and durability remain.
2/5
Pro Max may become Ultra: The iPhone 17 Pro Max could be rebranded as “Ultra,” featuring a slightly thicker body to house a bigger battery, making it stand out more from the Pro model.
3/5
Design changes: Expect rectangular camera bumps with rounded corners across all models. Color options will also expand, with standard models in brighter shades while Pro versions could introduce a striking orange.
4/5
Display upgrades: All four models may finally get 120Hz refresh rates. Sizes will range from 6.3 inches (base and Pro) to 6.6 inches (Air) and 6.9 inches (Pro Max).
5/5
24MP front cameras & iOS 26: Apple is set to double selfie camera resolution to 24MP, while the phones will ship with iOS 26. The new “Liquid Glass” theme brings translucent menus, and a dedicated Games app is also on the way.
