Overview

  • Apple’s four new iPhones are available starting September 19, with the iPhone 17 from €949, Air from €1,199, 17 Pro from €1,299, and 17 Pro Max from €1,449 in Europe.
  • The iPhone Air draws praise for its 5.6 mm profile, 165 g titanium build, and luxury feel, but it uses a single 48 MP camera, lasts up to about 27 hours of video playback, and is eSIM-only.
  • Reviewers describe the iPhone 17 as the balanced pick, featuring a 6.3-inch display with ProMotion, Apple’s new A19 chip, 256 GB base storage, and a 48 MP main camera paired with an ultrawide.
  • The 17 Pro and Pro Max focus on versatility and endurance with a triple-camera setup including a 4x tele lens and larger sensors for better low-light results; Apple rates the Pro Max at up to 37 hours of video playback and it weighs 231 g.
  • The Pro models debut a striking Cosmic Orange finish alongside more traditional colors, adding a visual differentiator noted in hands-on coverage.
