Apple’s much awaited iPhone 17 lineup is expected to begin in September 2025. While it is still months to go before the official release, rumors and leaks are being gathered. The iPhone 17 series is expected to include major design changes, hardware upgrades and four models with a large surprise.

Now, of course, not all rumors or leaks can be trusted or are guaranteed to make them physical, but the discussion is giving us a sketch that can be in the store. From a improved design language to better performance and cameras, here are everything we know about the online report about the iPhone 17 series so far.

Four iphones with a new surprise

Apple is allegedly planning a major shake-up of its iPhone lineup by replacing the plus model a smooth, mild optional-iPhone 17 Air. This ultra-split device is expected to be aimed at the purpose of users who prefer more compact and light smartphones without a screen size sacrifice. Leaks look promising, especially when we see mobile manufacturers transferred to the slim model – such as Samsung, which launched its smooth Galaxy 25 edge at just 5.8 mm.

The iPhone 17 Air features a 6.6-inch display, packed in an ultra-skinned body, measuring only 5.5 mm-the thinnest modern-day iPhone makes the iPhone.

Recent leaks suggest that the air model can weigh about 145 grams, almost an ounce may be lighter than the current iPhone 16. However, this slim design may come at the cost of certain characteristics. According to reports, due to limited space it can have only one rear camera and mono speaker. The USB Type-C port can also be placed a little off-center in the iPhone 17 Air.

However, the biggest trade-off for the ultra-ingestion design of the iPhone 17 Air can be its battery capacity. A recent leakage of the NAVER user “Yeux1122” claims that the air model will have a 2,800mAh battery – the iPhone 16 smaller than 3,561mAh and the iPhone 16 Pro Max 4,685mAh in Max.

To compensate, Apple can introduce advanced silicone-node battery technology, which can increase the capacity by 15 percent while maintaining a slim profile. There are also speculation that Apple may bring back the iPhone battery case for users that require additional power.

To get iPhone 17 and iPhone 17 Pro to get large displays

Apple is asked to make its new iPhones larger, with a standard iPhone 17 display of 6.3 inch, while the iPhone 17 can introduce a 6.6 -inch screen in a very thin form factor. Meanwhile, the Pro and the Pro Max models are rumored to come up with 6.3-inch and 6.9-inch display respectively.

All models to get 120Hz display

A big performance is not all. All four iPhone 17 models are expected that the Ltpo OLED display is finally exclusive to the first pro variants with 120Hz promotion technology. Rapid latest rate of smooth scrolling, will enable more responsive touch interactions, and will always pave the way for performance functionality on standard and air models.

Apple is also reportedly sourcing these advanced panels from Samsung, LG, and BOE, with some models possibly using Samsung’s M14 OLED technology that provides better power efficiency, durability and high bright levels.

New build materials and design twicks

Another major change in the iPhone 17 series is rumored to change build material. While the iPhone 15 and 16 Pro models used the titanium, Apple allegedly planned to switch back to the aluminum frame for the entire iPhone 17 lineup. This step is said to align with the stability goals of Apple, as aluminum has a lower carbon footprint than titanium.

Another design change is in the expected camera module. Several leaked dummy models suggest that Apple is digging the squarel camera island in favor of a rectangular, aluminum-signed module. Additionally, the iPhone 17 Pro Max may feature a small dynamic island, which is likely to be a new metalan close sensor, which allows Apple to shrink the face ID module. There are also rumors of under-display face ID for future models, although it is not clear whether it will debut this year or not.

Big camera upgrade

On the camera front, Apple is asked to upgrade the selfie camera from 12-megapixels to 24-megapixels in all models. Rear cameras are also rumored to significantly improve, with Prof. Max, a 48-megapixel tetperism is expected to facilitate telephoto lens. Meanwhile, the iPhone 17 can be organized for a single 48-megapixel wide sensor, similar to the iPhone 16E. However, Apple can enable the single camera of the iPhone 17 Air through computational photography.

The whispering of a variable aperture system is also making its way for at least one iPhone 17 model, although the details are rare.

Apple’s own chips and 5G modem

Under the hood, the iPhone 17 and the iPhone 17 Air are expected to be operated by the A19 chip, while the Pro model will possibly get a more powerful A19 Pro chipset. Apple has also been tipped to include more RAMs, with at least three models potentially characterized by 12GB RAM. If confirmed, it will be a significant collision with the current 8GB in some models.

But the big story is Apple’s in-house 5G modem, which can come in the iPhone 17 Air and possibly other models are of better capacity. Apple has already launched its first 5G modem – C1 chip – iPhone 16E.

Fast charging and better cooling

In the battery department, Apple is reportedly upgrading wired charging speed to 35W in all models. Additionally, pro models can eventually introduce reverse wireless charging, making users directly charge goods such as airpods from their iPhone.

Cooling may be another area of ​​focus this year. Prof. Max can introduce a hybrid cooling system using both the vapor room and graphite sheet. Other iPhone 17 models can also improve thermal design, although the details remain limited.

The iPhone 17 series expected pricing and launch

Apple usually follows 1 September release cycle, and the iPhone 17 series is expected to be launched around the same time. While pricing has not been officially revealed, leaks suggest that the Aadhaar iPhone 17 may maintain the initial price of Rs 79,900 for its predecessor in India. However, the iPhone 17 can move a slightly to the introduction of air. According to Mark Gurman of Bloomberg, the price of the air model can be around $ 900, it can be placed in the same range as the iPhone 16 Plus.
