Overview

• Apple’s “Awe Dropping” event on September 9 is expected to showcase four iPhones — iPhone 17, 17 Air, 17 Pro, and 17 Pro Max — according to multiple leaks.
• Pro variants are widely reported to add a triple 48MP rear setup with a 48MP telephoto, a 24MP front camera, possible 8K video, and a redesigned rectangular camera island with an aluminum‑glass look.
• Performance leaks point to A19 Pro chips with 12GB RAM and vapor‑chamber cooling on the Pro models, while non‑Pro phones are expected to use A19 chips with 120Hz displays expanding beyond the Pro tier.
• The new iPhone 17 Air is rumoured to be about 5.5mm thin with a single rear camera and likely battery trade‑offs, positioning it as a replacement for the Plus‑sized option.
• Pricing projections suggest the base model holds near $799 as Pro starting prices rise and India sees higher tags, with reports also tipping a ~5,000mAh battery for Pro Max and pre‑orders around September 12 followed by shipments near September 19.
