Overview

• The lineup — iPhone 17, 17 Air, 17 Pro and 17 Pro Max — is expected to debut between September 11–13, 2025, introducing Apple’s first ‘Air’ model in its smartphone range.
• A new horizontal camera bar is rumored to reshape the back design, while the iPhone 17 Air could become Apple’s thinnest phone at just 5.5 mm.
• All four models are said to upgrade to a 24 MP front-facing camera, with Pro editions adding a 48 MP telephoto lens and 8K video recording support.
• iPhone 17 Pro and Pro Max models are expected to run on Apple’s next-generation A19 Pro chip built on TSMC’s 3 nm process, plus an in-house Wi-Fi 7 radio and enhanced vapor-chamber cooling.
• Looking beyond 2025, Apple is reportedly testing a 200 MP main sensor for future iPhones and targeting under-display Face ID by 2026–27 as part of a move to an uninterrupted full-screen design.
