When will the iPhone 17 be released?
The release of the new iPhone 17 is expected to take place in September 2025, as this aligns with Apple’s tradition of introducing its new devices during this month. The presentation is typically scheduled for the second week of September, and potential release dates include the 9th, 10th, 16th, or 17th. Additionally, many analysts and sources have confirmed that the official announcement will take place in mid-September 2025.
New renders of the iPhone 17 Pro and iPhone 17 Pro Max
Insider Majin Bu has unveiled fresh renders of the iPhone 17 Pro and iPhone 17 Pro Max, which show the new design of the smartphone. It features a wide camera block that spans the entire back panel, and the Apple logo is no longer centered.
In addition, the iPhone 17 Pro and iPhone 17 Pro Max are expected to feature a two-tone back design and a redesigned MagSafe.
Significant changes in the design of the iPhone 17 Series
The most noticeable changes in the iPhone 17’s design are the new wide camera block and the repositioned “apple” icon, which we mentioned earlier.
In addition, there will be no iPhone 17 Plus model, and instead, the iPhone 17 Air will be introduced, which will be almost half the thickness of the other iPhone 17 series smartphones.
However, the basic iPhone 17 will not differ much from the previous model.
Why is Apple moving the logo and changing MagSafe on the iPhone 17?
As you may have noticed, the company’s logo will now be positioned lower relative to the overall length of the device, but it will still be centered on the lid, if we ignore the area occupied by the camera module. This design choice was already used by the company in 2020 with the release of the iPhone SE, and since then, the design has remained unchanged, with the logo positioned precisely in the center.
This led to the need to rework the MagSafe magnets in the original cases, as the logo is now covered by the magnetic ring in the new location. As a result, Apple decided to update the design of the ring by adding a small gap that allows the logo to be seen from underneath the magnet. Many users found the new location of the logo to be somewhat strange and asymmetrical. However, if you are using an opaque case, there will be no noticeable changes for you.
iPhone 17 Series Prices
While there is no exact information yet, it is likely that the prices for the 17 series will be similar to those of the 16 series. It is expected that the new iPhone 17 Series will start at 799$, the iPhone 17 Air will start at 899$, the iPhone 17 Pro will start at 1099$, and the iPhone 17 Pro Max will start at 1199$. These prices align with those offered for the 16 series when it was released in September last year in the United States.
