The iPhone 17 Series
Apple has just announced its brand new phones, the iPhone 17 series. That's three upgrades to familiar models and also the all-new iPhone 17 Air, which takes the place of the iPhone Plus. If lining up in a queue on release day isn’t really your style, and you still want to get your hands on one at the earliest opportunity, you will be able to pre-order the iPhone 17, 17 Pro, 17 Pro Max or iPhone 17 Air from 10pm AEST on September 12th, in advance of the September 19 release date.The iPhone 17 boasts a new design with a slightly larger 6.3-inch display and thinner borders. And after years of waiting (and a lot of grumbling), the base iPhone 17 finally features a 120Hz refresh rate.
Internally, the new A19 chip is faster as well as more energy-efficient, particularly when paired with Apple Intelligence. If you are upgrading from an older iPhone, you will notice a huge jump in speed and improved gameplay thanks to ProMotion.
On the camera front, you'll find a 48MP Fusion main camera (shooting 24MP photos by default) as well as a 2x telephoto lens. The ultra-wide camera also receives an upgrade to 48MP, making macro photography crisper and also more impressive.
If you're planning to get your hands on the new iPhone 17, don't worry about searching for the right case, Campad Electronics, a well-known Australian retailer of iPhone accessories, already has a large selection of options listed for all models, so you can keep your phone safe and stylish.
