iPhone 17 Leaks Reveal Uniform 120 Hz Displays, Ultra-Thin Air and Chip Assignments

Insider leaks suggest Apple is equipping every iPhone 17 model with 120 Hz ProMotion displays to reduce feature gaps across the lineup.

The iPhone 17 series is expected to have a redesigned UI for the Dynamic Island.

A thicker iPhone could mean a much bigger battery

Overview

  • Leaked schematics and dummy videos indicate all four iPhone 17 variants will feature ultra-thin bezels paired with 120 Hz LTPO OLED ProMotion displays—features previously exclusive to Pro models.
  • A hands-on dummy model video and supply-chain analysis show the iPhone 17 Air will measure just 5.5 mm at its slimmest point, making it Apple’s thinnest smartphone ever.
  • iOS 18 code leaks assign the A19 chip to the iPhone 17 and 17 Air while reserving the higher-performance A19 Pro for the Pro and Pro Max models.
  • Leaked renders reveal a lower-positioned rear Apple logo and a redesigned MagSafe magnet array on Pro models, alongside new ultra-pale blue and other color options to maintain visual differentiation.
  • Industry reports indicate a mid-September 2025 unveiling for the four-model iPhone 17 series, followed by a spring 2026 launch of a budget-oriented iPhone 17e using an older OLED panel.
