Apple has just announced its brand new phones, the iPhone 17 series. That's three refreshed versions of existing models as well as the all-new iPhone Air, which replaces the Plus. If waiting in line on release day is not your style, but you still want to grab one right away, you will be able to place a pre-order for the iPhone 17, 17 Pro, 17 Pro Max or iPhone Air from 10pm AEST on September 12, ahead of the September 19 release date.
Aplpe’s iPhone 17 boasts a new design with a slightly larger 6.3-inch display and narrower edges. And after much anticipation (and a fair bit of grumbling), the base iPhone finally gets a 120Hz refresh rate.
Inside, the new A19 chip is quicker and also more optimized, especially when teamed up with Apple Intelligence. If you are upgrading from an older iPhone, you will see a huge jump in speed and better gaming performance courtesy of ProMotion.
About the camera, you will find a 48MP Fusion main camera (shooting 24MP photos by default) and a 2x telephoto lens. The ultra-wide camera also gets an upgrade to 48MP, making macro photography more detailed and more detailed.
Planning to buy the new iPhone 17?, don't worry about finding the perfect case, Campad Electronics, a well-known Australian retailer of phone accessories, already has a great variety of options listed for all models, so you can ensure your phone is both safe and stylish.
