Apple has just announced its latest phones, the iPhone 17 series. That is updates to three known models as well as the new iPhone Air, which takes the place of the iPhone Plus. If camping out on release day is not your style, but you still want to grab one right away, you will be able to reserve the iPhone 17, 17 Pro, 17 Pro Max or iPhone Air from 10pm AEST on September 12, ahead of the September 19 release date.
The iPhone 17 boasts a redesigned look with a slightly larger 6.3-inch display and narrower edges. And after much anticipation (and a ton of grumbling), the base iPhone finally gets a 120Hz refresh rate.
Under the hood, the new A19 chip is quicker as well as more energy-efficient, particularly when combined with Apple Intelligence. If you are upgrading from an older iPhone, you will see a massive jump in speed and smoother gaming thanks to ProMotion.
On the camera front, you'll find a 48MP Fusion main camera (shooting 24MP photos by default) as well as a 2x telephoto lens. The ultra-wide camera also receives an upgrade to 48MP, making macro photography sharper and more detailed.
If you're planning to get the new iPhone 17, don't worry about finding the perfect case, as there will be a wide variety of cases to pick from. Campad Electronics, a top Australian retailer of mobile phone accessories, already has cases listed for all iPhone 17 models, so you can find something that matches your taste. This is a great opportunity to check out different designs, materials and styles to customize and safeguard your phone.
