Apple’s iPhone 17 Series
Apple recently revealed its all-new phones, the iPhone 17 series. That is three upgrades to familiar models and the brand-new iPhone 17 Air, that is replacing the Plus. If lining up in a queue on release day isn’t really your style, but you still wish 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 Air from 10pm AEST on September 12, before the September 19 release date.Aplpe’s iPhone 17 boasts a new design 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 gets a 120Hz refresh rate.
Under the hood, the new A19 chip is quicker as well as more optimized, especially when teamed up with Apple Intelligence. If you are upgrading from an older iPhone, you will experience a significant bump in speed and better gaming performance thanks to ProMotion.
Camera wise, 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 also more impressive.
About to upgrade to the iPhone 17?, don't worry about choosing the right case, as there will be a wide variety of cases to pick from. Campad Electronics, a trusted Australian retailer of mobile phone accessories, already has cases listed for all iPhone 17 models, so you can find something that matches your taste.
