Apple Unveils the iPhone 17 Series: A New Era of Innovation
Get ready for an exciting new chapter in the world of smartphones as Apple prepares to launch its iPhone 17 series in India in the first week of September 2025 [1][3][5]. The official event is expected to take place on September 9 or 10 [1][3][5].
Pricing and Models
The iPhone 17 series will offer four models: the standard iPhone 17, the iPhone 17 Air (replacing the Plus), the iPhone 17 Pro, and the iPhone 17 Pro Max. The base model will start at approximately ₹79,900, while the iPhone 17 Pro will start at around ₹1,45,990, and the iPhone 17 Pro Max will start at around ₹1,64,990 [1][2][4][5].
The iPhone 17 Air, a new mid-tier addition, is expected to be thinner at around 5.5 mm and feature a new horizontal pill-shaped camera layout [5].
New Features and Upgrades
The iPhone 17 series is rumoured to run on Apple's A19 Bionic chip, built on 3 nm technology, promising faster performance and improved power efficiency [4]. All models are expected to debut with iOS 26.
The Pro models could introduce a mechanical aperture for better depth effects, and a dual video mode for simultaneous front and back camera recording. The iPhone 17 Pro Max might support 8K video recording [3][5].
For the first time, iPhones may come with up to 12GB of RAM [4]. The iPhone 17 Air is expected to have a 48MP rear camera [5].
Design Changes
The iPhone 17 Pro could feature a redesigned back panel made from a blend of aluminum and glass instead of a full titanium frame, with a larger, more rectangular camera bump similar to Google Pixel phones. The Apple logo may also be repositioned lower on the back [2].
Display
The iPhone 17 Air will have a 6.6-inch OLED ProMotion display, and all models may get 120Hz ProMotion displays [5].
Price Increases
There is a notable price hike expected due to inflation, US tariffs on devices imported from China and India, and ongoing geopolitical tensions, potentially pushing prices $50 to $100 higher than the iPhone 16 series [3][4].
Launch and Availability
The launch date for the iPhone 17 Pro in India is speculated to be either September 9 or 10, with sales expected to start around September 12 or 19 [1][3][5].
