iPhone 17 Pro Max: The iPhone 17 Pro and iPhone 17 Pro Max may not hit the market until 2025, but leaks have already begun to spill many enticing details. Apple is said to be introducing major design changes along with major upgrades to the cameras, chips, and performance. These flagship devices look set to elevate the iPhone experience with special attention to battery life and exquisite build quality. Here’s everything we know about them so far.
iPhone 17 Pro and iPhone 17 Pro Max Launch Date (Expected)
The iPhone 17 Pro and the iPhone 17 Pro Max seem a little far away from launch, but already rumors of what Apple might have in store for its flagship devices in 2025 are swirling around. Unless Apple deviates from its usual pattern, the iPhone 17 Pro series is supposed to come into being somewhere between September 11 and 13, 2025.
iPhone 17 Pro and iPhone 17 Pro Max Price (Expected)
Things could get a little pricier this time. With global tariffs and trade tensions on the rise, an estimate would be an iPhone 17 Pro Base price starting at Rs 1,39,900, while the iPhone 17 Pro Max may go for somewhere near Rs 1,64,900 in India.
iPhone 17 Pro and iPhone 17 Pro Max Design
Meanwhile, design-wise, the iPhone 17 Pro series could be fairly radical. Apple could be moving away from the titanium frame of the previous models and switching back to aluminum. If this design is to be believed, the rear will showcase a mix of “part-aluminium, part-glass,” providing a brand-new look for the phone. For the camera design, expect a rectangular-shaped camera island with rounded offs, while the lenses might retain the same triangular layout. A much-anticipated upgrade is a rumored new anti-reflective coating on the display for improved scratch resistance compared to current models.
iPhone 17 Pro and iPhone 17 Pro Max Colors
As for the colors, iPhone 17 Pro models could ply multiple shades like Blue, Black, White, and Gold, and Apple may have some exclusive names for them to taste fresh and unique.
iPhone 17 Pro, iPhone 17 Pro Max Cameras
Now let’s get to cameras, which could turn out to be the main highlight of the iPhone 17 Pro series. There are rumors of massive camera upgrades: a 48MP Telephoto lens, which is a giant step up from the 12MP lens of the previous incarnations. And, all four variants of the iPhone 17 models could come with a 24MP selfie camera with double the resolution of that of the iPhone 16 series. There are some whispers about recording 8K videos and a new dual-video mode that allows you to record using both the front and rear cameras simultaneously, which is bound to stir the heart of vloggers and content creators alike.
iPhone 17 Pro, iPhone 17 Pro Max Specifications (Expected)
Inside, it has been said that the iPhone 17 Pro series will be powered by Apple’s next-gen A19 Pro chip, which would be working with TSMC’s third-gen 3nm process. This chip is said to enable higher clock speeds, better efficiency, and better performance across the board. RAM is said to be up to 12GB for better multitasking functions and bolstering Apple’s advanced AI features. There is also talk of Apple potentially making its own chip for Wi-Fi 7 for speedier wireless and connectivity.
iPhone 17 Pro, iPhone 17 Pro Max Battery and Cooling
The iPhone 17 Pro Max might have a little thicker body to house a bigger battery, plus the grapevine has it that Apple is working on enhancing thermal management with a vapor chamber cooling system to keep things cool. This further suggests that the iPhone 17 Pro series will get a massive performance bump, a worthy inducement for tempted buyers.
