Overview

  • Apple’s delivery estimates show the iPhone 17 Pro Max across all colors and capacities delayed by roughly 3–4 weeks, pushing many orders into October.
  • Launch-day availability largely holds for iPhone 17 and iPhone Air, with some color-specific delays, while several iPhone 17 Pro configurations still show Sept. 19 delivery.
  • Apple targets professionals with ProRes RAW, Apple Log 2, OpenGate recording, Genlock and timecode support via Blackmagic Camera Pro Dock, and 4K at 120fps Dolby Vision on the Pro models.
  • The Pro lineup features the A19 Pro chip and a vapor‑chamber cooling system, with Apple claiming about a 40% improvement in sustained performance versus last year’s Pro.
  • Pricing stretches to a new 2TB iPhone 17 Pro Max at $1,999, and in India higher sticker prices are offset for some buyers through bank cashback and rewards strategies reported by local outlets.
