The iPhone 17 features a redesigned look 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 includes a 120Hz refresh rate.
Inside, Apple’s new A19 chip is quicker and also more optimized, especially when paired with Apple Intelligence. If you're upgrading from an older iPhone, you'll experience a significant bump in speed and better gaming performance courtesy of ProMotion.
About the camera, you'll find a 48MP Fusion main camera (shooting 24MP photos by default) and a 2x telephoto lens. The ultra-wide camera also receives an upgrade to 48MP, making macro photography more detailed and also more detailed.
