Apple is gearing up to unveil its highly anticipated iPhone 17 series this September, and recent leaks suggest major upgrades across the lineup. The upcoming series is expected to include four models: iPhone 17, iPhone 17 Air, iPhone 17 Pro, and iPhone 17 Pro Max. Notably, Apple may discontinue the "Plus" variant, introducing a new “Air” model aimed at enhancing its mid-range offerings.
iPhone 17 Pro Design
Leaked details hint at a bold redesign for the iPhone 17 Pro. Apple could replace the current titanium frame with a durable aluminum chassis, possibly featuring a rectangular camera module set into a composite glass-aluminum back panel. There are also rumors of a slightly thicker body to accommodate better thermal performance and a larger battery. However, Bloomberg's Mark Gurman suggests Apple might opt for a uniform material finish across the device.
Camera Upgrades
The iPhone 17 Pro is expected to bring significant camera improvements, most notably a 48 MP periscope telephoto lens—a major jump from the 12 MP sensor in the iPhone 16 Pro. This new lens could offer up to 10x optical zoom and better low-light clarity. Apple is also planning to upgrade the selfie camera to 24 MP across the lineup and may introduce 8K video recording—a first for any iPhone.
Performance and Hardware
Under the hood, the iPhone 17 Pro is likely to feature Apple’s next-gen A19 Pro chipset, built on a 3nm architecture for superior performance and efficiency. The Pro model is also expected to ship with 12GB RAM, offering smoother multitasking and enhanced AI capabilities.

iPhone 17 Pro Max: ~₹1,64,900

Launch Timeline
