Apple has just announced its brand new phones, the iPhone 17 series. That's updates to three known models as well as the new iPhone Air, which takes the place of the iPhone Plus. If camping out on release day isn't your style, but you still wish to secure one at the earliest opportunity, you'll be able to pre-order the iPhone 17, 17 Pro, 17 Pro Max or iPhone Air from 10pm AEST on September 12th, in advance of the September 19th release date.
Aplpe’s iPhone 17 gets a fresh design with a slightly larger 6.3-inch display and slimmer bezels. And after a long wait (and a lot of grumbling), the base iPhone 17 finally has a a 120Hz refresh rate.
Internally, the new A19 chip is faster and more efficient, especially when teamed up with Apple Intelligence. If you are upgrading from an older iPhone, you will notice a huge bump in speed and better gaming performance courtesy of ProMotion.
Camera wise, you will find a 48MP Fusion main camera (shooting 24MP photos by default) and also a 2x telephoto lens. The device’s ultra-wide camera also gets an upgrade to 48MP, making macro photography sharper and more detailed.
For those looking to upgrade to the iPhone 17, the good news is that there are already plenty of case options available, thanks to retailers like Campad Electronics, which has listed a wide range of cases for all iPhone 17 models. This ensures you can find the perfect accessory to go with your new phone, with a multitude of styles, materials and price points to choose from, making it simple to get something that suits your style and wallet.
