iPhone 17 Pro Max Vs iPhone 17 Pro: Now we are very close to the time when Apple can do its biggest tech launch of the year, i.e. the launch of the iPhone 17 series. If Apple follows its traditional routine, then we can see the new iPhone 17 models in September 2025 this year. This time it is expected that Apple will bring many big and important upgrades in the iPhone 17 Pro and iPhone 17 Pro Max. Although the company has not yet given any official information about these devices, there is a flood of leaks and rumors on the Internet, which shows what features these new smartphones will come with.
Some leaks have also surfaced in which we have seen dummy models of the iPhone 17 series, which may have been leaked from a Chinese smartphone case manufacturing company. Apart from this, many things have also come to the fore regarding the possible specifications and features of the devices, especially about the big difference between the iPhone 17 Pro and Pro Max. Because both the models are getting many special upgrades, these smartphones will decide the direction of the flagship smartphone market in the coming times. So let’s know in detail what major changes are going to happen in these two models.
1. Three 48 megapixel cameras, but with some special twists
Apple has reportedly made a big change in the camera systems of both the models. Both the iPhone 17 Pro and Pro Max will now have a triple-lens setup, in which the picture quality of each sensor will be 48 megapixels. It will include a main lens, an ultra-wide lens and a new fusion sensor, which will help in capturing better photo quality and correct colors, especially in low light. But the Pro Max model will be seen on a different level with its special Tetraprism 48 MP telephoto lens. According to rumors, this telephoto lens can support up to 10x optical zoom, which will set a new benchmark for smartphone photography.
2. Better design with larger display and lighter frames
Both models will be easily distinguished by the screen size. The iPhone 17 Pro is expected to have a 6.3-inch OLED display, while the Pro Max will have a larger 6.9-inch panel, which will give a more cinematic experience. Apple has also changed the frame and now lightweight aluminum frames can be used. Apart from this, a half glass back can be given on the back of the device, which will increase the strength as well as the convenience of wireless charging. The camera module will also be given a new and rectangular shape, which will make the look of the phone look completely fresh.
3. A19 Pro chip and better RAM
Both phones will get Apple’s new A19 Pro chip, which is based on 3nm technology. This will not only improve the performance but will also increase the battery efficiency. These iPhones can be given up to 12GB of RAM, so that they will be able to handle high-end apps and multitasking easily. The special thing is that the Pro Max model will get a better battery, around 5,000mAh, while the Pro model is expected to have a 4,500mAh battery. This means that the Pro Max will give slightly longer battery life.
4. Expensive prices expected
The ongoing trade war between the US and China and supply chain problems may lead to an increase in the prices of the iPhone 17 series. Especially the increase in manufacturing costs in China will affect the prices. In India too, the starting price of the iPhone 17 Pro can be around ₹ 1,39,999, while the price of the Pro Max can go up to ₹ 1,64,999. These prices not only reflect the new hardware upgrades, but also reflect the global economic challenges that Apple is facing.
5. Launch date still fixed in September
According to Apple’s old tradition of launching, the iPhone 17 series can be launched in the second week of September. After this, pre-orders will open and delivery will start by the end of the month. This time is perfect so that the new iPhones are available in the market during the festive season.
It is clear from this entire analysis that big changes are coming in both iPhone 17 Pro and Pro Max, which can change the definition of flagship smartphone for years to come. From camera to display, performance, and design, Apple is all set to give a special and premium experience to the users this time.
