Technology giant Apple is reportedly preparing a series of major upgrades for its next-generation iPhone 17 series, which is expected to be launched in September 2025. Significant improvements, especially in camera and performance.
A report from Macrumors suggests that both the iPhone 17 Pro and iPhone 17 Pro Max will get significant camera upgrades, with both models likely to feature a new 48MP telephoto rear camera, according to Pu. This could mark an improvement over the 12MP telephoto lens on the iPhone 16 Pro models. The selfie camera of the iPhone 17 Pro series is also expected to be upgraded to 12MP.
In terms of memory, the report adds that the iPhone 17 Pro is rumored to come with 12GB of RAM, which is higher than the 8GB of the current iPhone 16 Pro model. This upgrade improves overall performance, especially multitasking and Apple AI-driven features. In addition, Pu predicts that the iPhone 17 Pro Max’s Face ID system will use a smaller “metal lens” to achieve a narrower dynamic island on the front display.
The iPhone 17 Pro and iPhone 17 Pro Max are expected to retain the same screen sizes as their predecessors, with the iPhone 17 Pro equipped with a 6.3-inch display and the iPhone 17 Pro Max equipped with a larger 6.9-inch display.

The iPhone 17 Air (also known as iPhone 17 Slim) is expected to feature a 6.6-inch display and 8GB of RAM, as well as Apple’s Dynamic Island and the same A19 chip as the standard iPhone 17 model.
