The highlight feature is that all models in the iPhone 17 series will support 120Hz ProMotion refresh rate and LTPO technology. This will bring the standard iPhone models closer to the Pro models in terms of display technology. The familiar Dynamic Island design will also be retained.

In terms of performance, the iPhone 17 and 17 Slim are said to be powered by Apple’s A19 Bionic chip, while the Pro models are said to be powered by the more powerful A19 Pro, which is expected to be built on TSMC’s advanced 3nm process. The entire series is expected to feature a Qualcomm Snapdragon modem for cellular connectivity.

As for the price, the iPhone 17 is rumored to start at $799, while the iPhone 17 Slim could have a higher price tag of around $1,299, making it the most expensive model in the series. This means it will be more expensive than the iPhone 17 Pro and Pro Max, which are expected to cost $1,099 and $1,199 respectively.
Finally, the leak mentions that the iPhone 17 series will be released in September 2025. However, it is important to approach these leaks with caution, as details about devices that have not yet been released may change.
