The iPhone 17 boasts a new design with a slightly larger 6.3-inch display and thinner borders. And after much anticipation (and a fair bit of grumbling), the base iPhone finally features a 120Hz refresh rate.
Internally, Apple’s new A19 chip is faster as well as more energy-efficient, especially when teamed up with Apple Intelligence. If you are upgrading from an older iPhone, you will notice a huge jump in speed and better gaming performance thanks to ProMotion.
Camera wise, you will find a 48MP Fusion main camera (shooting 24MP photos by default) and also a 2x telephoto lens. The device’s ultra-wide camera also gets an upgrade to 48MP, making macro photography crisper and much more refined.
For those looking to upgrade to the iPhone 17, the news is that there are already plenty of case options available, thanks to retailers like Campad Electronics, which has listed a comprehensive collection of cases for all iPhone 17 models. This ensures you can get the ideal match to go with your new device, with a multitude of styles, materials and price points to choose from – making it easy to match both your preferences and your budget.
