Apple iPhone 17 And 17 Pro Max Leaks Reveal Big Changes Ahead: Chipset, Camera, Battery
The devices seem to be getting some serious updates: camera changes, battery improvements and new chipsets.
Are you thinking about upgrading your phone later this year? If that is the case, you might want to wait a bit. Apple is already touting the iPhone 17 series as the next big release in its lineup, and though the company has yet to announce the actual release date, some solid leaks are providing a sneak peek at what’s to come.
The iPhone 17 and the iPhone 17 Pro Max seem to be getting some serious updates: camera changes, battery improvements and new chipsets. Here’s a quick and simple look at the major differences based on what we know so far.
Camera Upgrades
The regular iPhone 17 might promise a new 24MP front camera, a huge jump compared to the existing 12MP one. The company is expected to keep its 48 MP main rear camera and will not include the 5x telephoto zoom.
The Pro Max could feature three 48 48MP cameras including a wide, ultra-wide, and telephoto, as well as 8K video recording for the first time on an iPhone.
Battery And Charging
Battery size is still under wraps, but the slightly larger screen suggests a bigger battery for the iPhone 17. It also indicates 35W fast charging, which would be a sizable upgrade from previous models.
Display And Design
The standard model could reach a 6.3-inch display, while the Pro Max remains the same at 6.9 inches. Both would get 120Hz refresh rates and anti-reflective screens for better sunlight visibility.
For the base model, not much is changing design-wise. The Pro Max might also introduce a new camera bar layout on the back.
Performance
The iPhone 17 might adopt Apple’s A19 chip, and the Pro Max could have the A19 Pro with 12GB RAM. Among other things, it’s said to feature a new cooling system to keep things cooler while under heavy use.
That’s what we know for now. So, let’s see what Apple has to offer us later this year.
