The next Apple event of the year, and probably bigger, will be held on September 9, where intelligent money is to see the launch of the standard iPhone 17, iPhone 17 Plus, iPhone 17 Pro and iPhone 17 Pro Max.
Look ours LIVE COVERAGE OF THE NEWS, RUMORS AND LAST HOUR ANALYSY OF THE APPLE EVENT.
If they believe in rumors, pro models at least should offer notable updates compared to the latest generations of iPhone launches, where Apple smartphones have become somewhat iterative. That said, the additions such as the dynamic island, the action button and the camera control have still combined to make some of the most consistent tickets in our list of the best phones.
I have been covering Apple and iPhones events for years, so I will be your guide in the next few days as we have the big day. Next, you will find a summary of the specifications and features of Punta for the next iPhones and live reports of all last minute leaks and rumors, in addition to the analysis of the many Techradar phones experts.
So, let’s enter …
iPhone 17: Cut to persecution
- On September 9 at the Apple event, I expect to see the iPhone 17, the iPhone 17 Plus, the iPhone 17 Pro and the iPhone 17 Pro Max.
- These could join an air iPhone 17, which is tipped to be a super thin phone with a 6.7 -inch screen; I could replace the iPhone 17 Plus.
- The standard iPhone will probably get a new chip, probably the A19, and can finally get a 120Hz screen. Wait for new colors, but not a radically different design.
- The iPhone 17 Pro and the iPhone 17 Pro Max could have more significant updates, from A19 Bionic and a steam camera cooling system, to a new teleobjective camera and a new rear camera design, as well as a new screen.
- Wait for new Intelligence characteristics from Apple to launch with the phones.
- Prices will probably begin at $ 799 / £ 799 / AU $ 1,399 for standard iPhones, and $ 999 / £ 999 / AU $ 1,849 for Pro models.
- Wait for early orders to open on Friday, September 12 and a complete launch on September 19.
- Here we show you how to see the ‘Awe Deathping’ event of Apple on September 9.
iPhone 17: What you need to know
Here is a summary of the key characteristics of the iPhone 17 that we hope to see from the phones family on September 9, depending on the last rumors and leaks claimed.
iPhone 17 and iPhone 17 Pro: Design and screen
Following rumors and advice so far, you can expect the iPhone 17 and 17 more to look a lot to its predecessors of the iPhone 16.
There are rumors of an aluminum frame for the four next generation iPhones, but I am not buying that; A deviation from the titanium chassis that is found in the Pro iPhones would be meant.
A great change could come in the form of a vertical rear camera module for the iPhone 17, very similar to the Samsung Galaxy S25. This could reduce the rear footprint of the module, but it would be a deviation of a style that Apple has used for years.
The fictional units that also promoted this design have a thin horizontal pill camera module for the so -called iPhone 17 air, which is expected to have the same screen size as the iPhone 16 Plus but it is much thinner.
In direct contrast, the rear camera module for iPhone 17 Pro models is inclined to be rectangular and cover the width of the phones bodies, with the idea that this module could contain an updated camera system. A set of other fictitious units, renders and rumors have lent weight to this, so I am inclined to believe that it has some legitimacy.
On the screen side, the Tipsters have affirmed that the four phones will have 120 Hz screens, which I would appreciate: a 60Hz screen feels ridiculous in 2025, even on the standard iPhones.
For Pro phones, a rumor states that the screens will use a new technology that “improves battery efficiency, maximizes screen durability and improves general performance compared to existing visualization technologies.”
iPhone 17 and iPhone 17 Pro: cameras
A credible and repeated rumor that there will be a new 24MP front camera for each iPhone 17 model has been making the rounds, but the wider camera updates for the standard iPhone 17 do not seem likely.
Meanwhile, the iPhone 17 air could have a rear camera, although there is some debate here, with another typter that states that the iPhone 17 air will have a main 48MP camera and a front 12MP.
It is likely to be a business as usual for the iPhone 17 on the side of the camera, although Apple may have improved the sensor a bit and it is likely that it improves the processing of the image signal to obtain more than one combination of the main and ultra wide camera.
On the side of the iPhone 17 Pro, things look a little more interesting, with both models with tip to obtain a teleobjective camera of 48 megapixels. A Tipster also states that the iPhone 17 Pro Max could have a mechanical opening, which allows you to adjust the field depth of your photos in the march; That could explain the design change of the expected camera module.
A left field rumor makes Apple try a 200MP sensor, although there are no indications that this would be included in the iPhone 17 Pro range.
iPhone 17 and iPhone 17 Pro: price and launch date
I will keep this simple based on rumors and my own experience of covering iPhones.
The standard iPhone 17 is expected to begin at $ 799 / £ 799 / AU $ 1,399.
The iPhone 17 Plus / iPhone 17 air could start at $ 899 / £ 899 / AU $ 1,599.
The iPhone 17 Pro will probably begin at $ 999 / £ 999 / AU $ 1,849.
The iPhone 17 Pro Max will probably begin at $ 1,199 / £ 1,199 / AU $ 2,149.
There is a rumor that due to tariffs, all new iPhones could be about $ 50 more expensive than their respective predecessors. I am from two minds about whether Apple will get a price cadence established this year.
Wait that early orders for all iPhones open on Friday, September 12 and a complete launch on September 19.
And prepare for a range of storage options of 128 GB to 1 TB, and a mixture of colors, including a forceful orange for Pro phones.

You can expect the iPhone 17 and iPhone 17 Pro and 17 Pro Max to have key specifications similar to iPhone 16 specifications.
The iPhone 17 air could mix things and have a thickness that measures between 5.0 mm and 6.0 mm, but so far there have been many leaks to discover the dimensions of the thin phone rumored.
Other key specifications of the new iPhones will probably include an A19 chip for standard and more/air models, which provides improved performance and efficiency, and probably more swampy responses from AI tools, along with better image signal processing.
On the professional phone side, that chip is inclined to be the A19 PRO, which will surely bring the same updates but with more influence on the game side. The last point receives more weight due to the fact that the cooling of the steam chamber for the iPhone 17 Pro models is expected, which could allow the chipset to deliver a maximum performance for prolonged times; This would be ideal for some of the most demanding iOS games.
There is also a rumor that the iPhone 17 will obtain 12 GB of RAM, which would be an update in the 8GB that have current Pro phones and that could allow faster responses from Apple’s intelligence tools.
Can you trust these rumors?
In general, many of the rumors and key advice that I have included in this article have more than a smell of legitimacy for them, and I am also leaning on my great experience to filter the most esoteric advice of those who have more weight for them.
In live updates below you will find more analysis of these; Some fast and fast, others more nuanced.
