Is the iPhone 17 coming?

Although nothing has been revealed as of yet, there are a few things we can almost assume are 100% correct. Firstly the phone's release date. Every year (minus the year of COVID-19), the iPhone is released in September, usually at the end of the month after being revealed at the beginning. So we can almost guarantee this will be the case for the 17 model.

Previous release dates:

• 16 – September 20th 2024
• 15 – September 22nd 2023
• 14 – September 16th 2022
• 13 – September 24th 2021
• 12 – October 23rd 2020 (pushed back due to covid)
• 11 – September 20th 2019

Will the iPhone 17 have major changes?

Like with most phones, there is always an improvement to the interior performance, battery, camera quality and more. So again we assume these features will all be adapted. It is believed we could see a new chipset for the iPhone 17, which would improve the phone's efficiency and processing speeds. Simple procedures like AP loading times and the general speed of the phone will be increased. And of course, the display of the phone will improve. It is rumoured Apple is moving onto a tougher material to make their screen and display out of, to make it even more scratch-proof and safer.

Will the iPhone 17 have a different design?

However, one major factor about the iPhone 17 that many are questioning is what the phone will look like design-wise. There have been talks that the iPhone 17 will have the ‘biggest design change since the iPhone X’, and many are expecting this will come from the layout of the camera. Already there are hundreds of online photos of fans creating what they think the camera layout will look like. People are assuming that Apple will move away from the vertical and diagonal pill shape and experiment with something a bit different. We hope this is the case. It seems other companies like Samsung are copying the current iPhone camera design. It would be good for Apple to move on and create a new series of smartphones that look completely different. (If this doesn’t happen with the iPhone 17 we certainly hope it’s considered in the iPhone 20 and ongoing models within the next few years.)

It has also been claimed that the phone will be the thinnest it has ever been. Described as a new ultra-thin model which will be the lightest phone Apple has ever created. It's also assumed Apple will bin off their Plus models as they did with the Miniseries. Purely because the Miniseries and the Plus models don’t do as well sales-wise.

Additional Specs:

• Refresh rate – 120Hz
• RAM – 12GB
• Size – Between 6.1 – 6.6”.
• Chipset – A19
• Launch date – September 2025
