Aplpe’s iPhone 17 has a new design with a slightly larger 6.3-inch display and thinner borders. And after years of waiting (and a fair bit of grumbling), the base iPhone finally includes a 120Hz refresh rate.
Inside, the new A19 chip is quicker as well as more energy-efficient, particularly when combined 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.
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 gets an upgrade to 48MP, making macro photography sharper and more refined.
Planning to upgrade to the iPhone 17?, you can rest assured that you'll have plenty of cases to choose from, with Campad Electronics, a reliable Australian retailer, already listing a wide range of cases for all iPhone 17 models, from slim and sleek designs to more robust and durable options.
