A Whole New Lineup

This year, we are not just getting the usual standard and Pro series, this time, we will also get to see a brand new iPhone 17 Air, along with iPhone 17 Pro and Pro Max. And yes, another big thing is that we will get a 120Hz ProMotion display in all four models, which means that now even the base model iPhone 17 will feel like a Pro while scrolling

iPhone 17 Air

The iPhone 17 Air is drawing all the attention, it’s 5.5mm thin and could be the thinnest iPhone ever. Imagine you’re holding a phone that feels almost weightless but still packs Apple’s latest A19 chip family.

While it may not be able to run big games like the Pro models, it’s great for those who want a phone that’s light, stylish, and easy to hold. And the rumored 6.6-inch display means it’s slim, but not small.

The Power Players: iPhone 17 Pro & Pro Max

The iPhone 17 Pro and Pro Max are built to be super powerful. They will feature the new A19 Pro chip for enhanced speed, additional RAM for faster app switching, and smart camera features powered by AI.

And the design? Apple may use a mix of aluminium and glass instead of titanium. This will make the phone lighter to carry and keep it cooler during heavy use. The camera shape may also change to a wide rectangle instead of the old square.

Cameras

According to leaks, its telephoto lens is now sharper, with improved zoom and a crisp 24MP front camera. Whether you are shooting sunsets or selfie videos, this could be the biggest jump in iPhone camera quality in a while.

The Steady Choice: iPhone 17

The regular iPhone 17 is not being left behind. It may have a slightly bigger 6.1-inch screen, a new A19 chip, and good battery life. It will not have all those fancy features, but it is more affordable and still feels fast.

My Take

If these iPhone 17 leaks are true, then Apple is clearly trying to please everyone – Air is for people who want simple and light phones, Pro models for those who want power, and regular ones for users who want a reliable phone. Personally, the super thin Air looks quite interesting… but those Pro camera upgrades are hard to ignore.

Which one would you pick, the featherweight Air or the feature-packed Pro?
