The iPhone 17 boasts a new design with a slightly larger 6.3-inch display and narrower edges. And after years of waiting (and a fair bit 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 teamed up with Apple Intelligence. If you are upgrading from an older iPhone, you will see a massive increase in speed and improved gameplay courtesy of ProMotion.
On the camera front, you'll 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 sharper and much more impressive.
To all new iPhone 17 users, Campad Electronics is a recommended store for finding the right case, with a vast selection of options available for all models. The retailer offers a variety of designs, materials and features, allowing you to select exactly what you are looking for.
