The Apple iPhone 17 series will soon launch, and details have already been leaked online. There is no exact launch date, but camera specs, battery details, and other features have surfaced online. Here is a brief comparison of the iPhone 17 and iPhone 17 Pro Max based on their rumored specifications for those anticipating the next generation of iPhones.
Apple iPhone 17 Pro Max and iPhone 17 launch date
As with a few previous iPhone events, the iPhone 17 series is probably going to arrive in September of this year. Apple has not yet confirmed the launch date, although it is anticipated to take place somewhere during the first two weeks of September 2025.
Camera specs leaked and module design
Sharper and more detailed selfies might be achieved with Apple’s potential introduction of a 24-megapixel front camera for the iPhone 17, a significant improvement over the existing 12-megapixel sensor. The iPhone 17 is anticipated to have its 48-megapixel primary camera on the back, but it will not have the 5x telephoto zoom, which is anticipated to be reserved for the Pro versions.
The Apple iPhone 17 Pro Max will have a 48MP rear camera. 48MP ultra-wide camera and 48 MP Tetraprism telephoto camera. This will be the first iPhone from Apple to have three 48-megapixel cameras on the back if this proves to be accurate. It could possibly allow 8K video recording, which would be a first for iPhones as well.
After six years, Apple may be making a big change with the design of its camera module for the iPhone 17 Pro, Max, and Air models, according to a user on X named @Mia_Katsuragi. The post included an interesting tech breakdown graphic that suggests the series may include a large camera island while maintaining the cherished “ideal triangle” camera arrangement.
Apple appears to be preparing to release a new camera with higher quality. A powerful 48MP module with a 10x hybrid zoom and better stabilization is probably going to replace the present 12MP telephoto camera.
On X, another user, @sonnydickson, who often tweets news about iPhones, wrote: First, have a look at these covers for the recently released iPhone 17 Pro. The camera hole is enormous! With this look, Apple is drawing attention.
The iPhone 17 Pro, Max, and Air are said to include Apple’s “ideal triangle” camera design, which is a camera island with the LiDAR scanner, LED flash, and microphone all tucked neatly on the right, if this image is accurate.
Battery details
There is no official detail about iPhone battery capacity, but according to rumors, this time it will have a bigger battery than the iPhone 16 Pro. If Apple increases its battery size, then it will improve battery life to a great extent. On the other hand Apple might introduce 35W fast charging support for iPhone 17 series, which is still behind Android.
Display
It is predicted that Apple will make the regular iPhone 17’s screen larger. It is anticipated to have a 6.3-inch display, which would bring it closer to the iPhone 16 Pro than the current 6.1-inch model. Users who like bigger displays for video consumption will probably find this update appealing.
Furthermore, it is anticipated that the iPhone 17 series would bring ProMotion technology to all models. This means that even the entry-level devices may have a refresh rate of 120 Hz, which would provide a more fluid scrolling and video viewing experience on the regular versions.
On the other hand, the iPhone 17 Pro Max will sport a 6.9-inch screen size. According to rumors, an anti-reflective coating will be included in the iPhone 17 series to enhance visibility outside in direct sunshine.
Design
According to reports, Apple plans to maintain the basic iPhone 17’s general design, including the Action button and USB-C connector, comparable to that of the iPhone 16. The Pro variants, on the other hand, could have a new rectangular camera bar design on the rear that extends the width of the phone and has rounded corners for a sleeker, more contemporary appearance.
Processor and other features
The chipsets that will power the future iPhone 17 variants are known, but we may not be certain of the other specifications. Apple’s next-generation A19 processor may power the iPhone 17, but the A19 Pro chip will power the iPhone 17 Pro and iPhone 17 Pro Max. According to reports, the Max model supports 12GB of RAM, while a basic model with support for 8GB of RAM could be released.
Furthermore, it has been believed that the iPhone 17 Pro Max would come with a unique cooling mechanism. It may use graphite sheets in a novel vapour chamber technique. We don’t know the specifics of the same. Like the earlier generations, all of the iPhone 17 models are probably going to feature at least an IP69 rating. Right now, the remaining specifics are being kept secret.
