So I’ve compiled it all here!
Every year, Apple releases a new iPhone model. This year, it is expected to be the “iPhone 17” series, but various rumors are already coming from various sources.
There are rumors that a new model may be added!
There are also rumors of major changes such as this, so this year’s iPhone may be the one to aim for…
Here, we have summarized the rumors about the iPhone 17 series (although they are still just rumors), so if you are thinking of upgrading this year, be sure to check it out.
iPhone 17 series release date and announcement date
Since this happens every year, I don’t think this will fluctuate much.
As per previous plans, the announcement will likely occur around the second week of September 2025, with the release date set to the following week.
iPhone 17: 6.27-inch LTPO display ($799)
iPhone 17 Air: 6.65-inch LTPO display (expected to be around $900)
iPhone 17 Pro: 6.27-inch LTPO display ($1,099)
iPhone 17 Pro Max: 6.86-inch LTPO display ($1,199)
The standard lineup will be ditched for the Plus model, and rumors are spreading that a new slim model called the iPhone 17 Air will be introduced.
As for the design, rumors are mixed that all models will have aluminum frames, and that the Pro will be titanium, so we don’t know what will happen. Aluminum would be fine if it’s easy to use.
iPhone 17 series displays: Will all models be slippery?
This year is likely to be a year of major changes to iPhone screens.
There are rumors that all models may feature ProMotion technology up to 120Hz.
If the smooth scrolling that was previously only available in the Pro series can now be used on the original and Air models, the value of the device will go up dramatically! It’ll definitely be smooth to play games !
Regarding screen size, there are also rumors that the iPhone 17 and iPhone 17 Pro will have the same screen size (6.3 or 6.27 inches), and that the iPhone 17 Pro Max might have a smaller dynamic island.
It seems that the screen protection technology is also likely to be upgraded, so the screen specifications are likely to change quite a bit.
iPhone 17 series camera: Side-by-side changes? Telephoto lens also improves image quality?
What has improved every year? Well, it’s the camera performance.
There are rumors of several changes to the camera this year as well.
Main Camera
An analyst familiar with Apple-related information claims that the iPhone 17 Pro Max’s telephoto camera may be changed to a 1/2.6-inch 48MP sensor.
Currently, the ultra-wide and wide-angle cameras are 48MP, while the telephoto camera remains at 12MP. This will all be unified at 64MP. The image quality at long distances may be better than ever before. Get ready for the sports day!
In addition, there is a theory that the rear camera layout may be side-by-side, and that the camera bump will no longer be uneven and will become a gentle slope, so there is a lot of buzz about the design.
Personally, I’m tired of seeing it, so I think it would be nice to see some changes. What do you all think?
Front camera
There are rumors that the front camera for selfies will also be updated.
Analysts predict that all models will have 24MP, and there are specific rumors that the lens configuration will be 6 elements.
The current model has been 12MP since the iPhone 11, so this year is likely to be a major upgrade. Not only will it be possible to take beautiful pictures, but it will also be easy to use because it seems that digital (crop) zoom will be effective.
Buttons on the iPhone 17 series: action button + volume button unified?
There may also be changes to the buttons.
Leakers have reported that the action button and volume buttons on the side will be combined. There are also rumors that it may become a single slide-type touch button.
However, the rumor is still not very reliable, so it’s probably best to take it with a pinch of salt for now.
iPhone 17 series battery: Will battery life get even better?
There’s no concrete talk about the battery yet, but there are rumors that the iPhone 17 Pro series may be equipped with new, highly power-efficient display technology.
There’s also a possibility that the “electrical induction adhesive peeling method” used in the iPhone 16 will be adopted in all models, and it seems likely that the battery will be comprehensively revised rather than simply increasing capacity.
iPhone 17 series specs: New chips, new modems?
After all, the story of the specifications you care about. The iPhone has a conspicuous high performance in the smartphone industry, but this year we have heard about specifications.
Equipped with a new A19 series chips
- The number of model numbers has increased accordingly, and the iPhone 17 series is expected to be equipped with the “A19” chip, and the iPhone 17 Pro series will be equipped with the “A19 Pro” chip.
- Among them, the “A19 Pro” chip is made in a 3nm process called the latest TSMC “N3P”. The current model is expected to improve power efficiency and performance.
Modem and Wi-Fi chips are also made in-house?
- Is the modem chip a chip made by Apple from the conventional Qualcom chips? Isn’t the story and the Wi-Fi chip made in-house? There is a story like that. By making it made in -house chip, you can expect to speed up communication and reduce power …?
- This is a place where the answer is not the actual usage scene, but I want to expect a little.
Is RAM enhanced for AI function?
- In anticipation of the full -fledged operation of AI (Apple Intelligence), the RAM capacity has increased. The iPhone 16 was RAM8GB, but the iPhone 17 could increase to 12GB.
- As with AI, you can use RAM to use your smartphone comfortably!
summary
Do you feel that this year’s iPhone 17 series seems to change quite a bit?
Of course, these are all rumored, predictions and considerations, so there is no confirmation information (for now). But may it change to design and camera? If you hear a rumor like this, you will be excited to see the appearance of a “new smartphone”! Because it comes out every year … I can’t get rid of it. I feel like that is the iPhone 17 series.
