New Delhi, August 29, 2025: Apple is set to introduce its iPhone 17 lineup—featuring four models—at the “Awe Dropping” launch event on September 9, 2025, streamed live from Cupertino
- iPhone 17: Expected to stick with a familiar design but upgraded with an A19 chip and a 120 Hz LTPO display. All models may include a high-resolution 24 MP front camera for clearer selfies.
- iPhone 17 Pro & Pro Max: Rumored to have a revised horizontal camera island and a body made of aluminum and glass—moving away from titanium frames. Significant camera enhancements are anticipated, including a trio of 48 MP rear sensors with the telephoto lens also upgraded to 48 MP, plus substantial RAM boosts. Other features may include vapor-chamber cooling, reverse wireless charging, and up to 12 GB of RAM.
- The iPhone 17 is expected to start around $849, likely leading to an Indian starting price near ₹89,900
