120Hz ProMotion Display

Recent leaks suggest that the iPhone 17 will have changes that could "redefine" the product line, similar to the iPhone X in 2017. Technology pageTom's Guidehas compiled this information to show the transformation of Apple phones next year.

Apple has been criticized for using an outdated 60Hz refresh rate for the standard iPhone, even though many mid-range Android phones have long been equipped with 120Hz. Some sources say the iPhone 16 and 16 Plus will still use a 60Hz display, despite improved brightness and super-thin bezels.

Meanwhile, the 120 Hz ProMotion display is expected to be included on all four versions of the iPhone 17, helping standard users also experience smoother animations and responses, especially when playing games.

iPhone 17 Pro Max with 48 megapixel triple camera

Camera is always an important criterion when buying a new phone. Apple always focuses on upgrading the camera for the highest-end version. As on the iPhone 16 Pro Max, the telephoto lens is said to have better zoom capabilities and a larger sensor. In 2025, the iPhone 17 Pro Max is expected to use a 48-megapixel sensor for both the main, ultra-wide-angle and telephoto cameras. The lenses can also change aperture. This is a worthy upgrade when users have more control over the camera, in addition to new image processing algorithms.

Ultra-thin iPhone version

Ice Universe, an account that specializes in accurately updating information about unreleased Apple products, said that the iPhone 17 Plus will be changed to iPhone 17 Slim. This will be the thinnest iPhone ever with a completely new design language. The device has a 6.65-inch screen, supports ProMotion 120 Hz and integrates the A19 Bionic chip.

The price of the product could start from $1,299, more expensive than the $1,199 of the current Pro Max version.

A19 chip on 2 nm process

While the iPhone 16 will be equipped with the A18 chip manufactured on TSMC's second-generation 3nm process, the iPhone 17 Pro series will use the A19 Pro, expected to be manufactured using the most advanced 2nm process, providing superior performance compared to the A18.

Better energy efficiency

The increased performance of the processor chip will also increase energy efficiency, thereby increasing the battery life of the iPhone 17 generation. In addition, Apple is said to be developing a new battery for the iPhone 17 instead of using third-party batteries as before. That way, the company can further optimize the energy efficiency of the iPhone.

24 megapixel selfie camera

According to analyst Ming-Chi Kuo, Apple will upgrade the resolution of the selfie camera on the iPhone 17 to 24 megapixels, providing better photo and video quality.

Meanwhile, the front camera of the iPhone 16 will still be 12 megapixels - the resolution that has been available since the iPhone 11 generation.

iPhone 17 Pro with 12GB RAM

The iPhone 17 Pro and 17 Pro Max are expected to increase RAM capacity to 12 GB, while the 16 Pro and 16 Pro Max are likely to keep the current 8 GB RAM.

Upgrading RAM will help the iPhone 17 Pro line process AI features faster and better, as artificial intelligence tasks now require high configurations and lots of RAM, and multitasking will also be more efficient.
