Overview

• Apple has confirmed an “Awe dropping” event on September 9 at Apple Park, signaling an iPhone‑centric launch.
• Preorders are widely expected on September 12 with retail availability on September 19, based on Apple’s typical schedule and reporting.
• Coverage converges on four models — iPhone 17, ultra‑thin 17 Air, 17 Pro and 17 Pro Max — featuring A19‑series chips, Wi‑Fi 7, and 120Hz ProMotion displays across the lineup.
• Leaks describe the 17 Air at roughly 5.5mm thick with Apple’s first in‑house 5G modem reportedly lacking mmWave, while Pro models may shift to an aluminum chassis with a full‑width rectangular camera island.
• Camera upgrades are widely reported, including a 24MP front camera across the range and triple 48MP rear sensors on the Pros, as multiple outlets also flag higher launch prices such as around $849 in the US and up to ₹1.64 lakh for the Pro Max in India.
