iPhone 17 Series: A Complete Review of Price, Specifications, and the Best Model for You in IndiaApple has launched its new iPhone 17 Series in India, and just like every year, these devices are creating a huge buzz in the tech world. This year, Apple has introduced four new models: the iPhone 17, iPhone 17 Pro, iPhone 17 Pro Max, and a brand new iPhone Air. If you’re thinking of buying a new iPhone, this article is for you. Here, we’ll give you all the information you need to make an informed decision.
Design & Display: A New Look and Feel
This year, the design of the iPhone 17 Series has seen some significant changes. The iPhone 17 and 17 Pro feature a 6.3-inch Super Retina XDR display, while the iPhone 17 Pro Max comes with a larger 6.9-inch screen. The iPhone 17 Pro and Pro Max now use an aluminum frame again, making them lighter than their predecessors. The most
attention-grabbing model is the iPhone Air, which is the thinnest iPhone ever. Its design is so thin that it’s hard to believe at first glance.
- iPhone 17 & 17 Pro: 6.3-inch Super Retina XDR display, now with a 120Hz ProMotion display, which is a significant upgrade for the base model.
- iPhone 17 Pro Max: A large 6.9-inch display, which is fantastic for watching media and gaming.
- iPhone Air: A thin and light 6.3-inch display, an excellent option for those who prioritize portability.
When we compare it to phones like the Samsung Galaxy S25 Ultra, the iPhone 17 Pro Max’s display seems slightly better in terms of brightness and color accuracy, but Samsung’s Edge display also provides a unique experience.
Performance: The New A19 Chip for a New Level of Speed
The iPhone 17 Series is powered by Apple’s latest A19 Chip. The iPhone 17 and iPhone Air use the A19 Chip, while the Pro and Pro Max models are equipped with the A19 Pro Chip.
A19 Chip: This chipset is about 50% faster than the previous A18 in terms of CPU performance and has a 2.1x faster 5-core GPU.
A19 Pro Chip: The A19 Pro Chip in the Pro models offers the highest performance and efficiency. It handles tasks like heavy gaming and 4K video editing with ease.
When we compared its performance to the Snapdragon 8 Gen 4 in the Samsung Galaxy S25 Ultra, both chipsets perform excellently on their respective platforms. However, Apple’s closed-loop ecosystem and software optimization provide a smoother overall user experience.
Camera: The Magic of the 48MP Camera
Apple has also made significant improvements in the camera department this year.
- iPhone 17: It features a new 48MP Fusion Main camera and a 48MP Fusion Ultra-Wide camera. It also includes a 2x optical quality telephoto lens.
- iPhone 17 Pro & Pro Max: These models come with an advanced 48MP Fusion camera system. The 17 Pro Max also has a new periscope telephoto lens with 3D sensor-shift optical image
stabilization and 4x optical zoom.Additionally, all models come with a new 18MP Center Stage front camera, which enhances video calls and selfies.Comparison: The Samsung Galaxy S25 Ultra also has an excellent camera, but Apple’s camera is generally considered superior for color accuracy and video recording. The iPhone 17 Pro Max, in particular, does an incredible job with 4K 60fps video recording.
Battery & Charging: The eSIM Advantage
Battery life is a major topic this year. Apple claims an “enormous leap in battery life” for the iPhone 17 Pro and Pro Max.
- eSIM vs Physical SIM: It’s important to know that the eSIM-only Pro models sold in countries like the US have a battery that is 5.5% to 7% larger than the physical SIM models. Since India sells the physical SIM models, we will get slightly less battery life.
- Battery Test: A recent test showed that the iPhone 17 Pro Max (physical SIM model) provided 13 hours of battery life, which is only a slight improvement over the iPhone 16 Pro Max. In contrast, the iPhone Air lasted only 7 hours and 18 minutes, which is quite low.
- Charging: All models support 25W MagSafe and Qi2 wireless charging. Companies like ESR are also making fast wireless chargers that support MagSafe, which can charge the phone quickly.
OS & Software Updates: A New World with iOS 26
The iPhone 17 Series comes with iOS 26, which includes several new features and improvements.
Apple Intelligence: This is Apple’s new AI platform that makes the phone’s daily functions even smarter.
Adaptive Power Mode: This new mode manages background apps and processes more efficiently, leading to improved battery life.
Apple is known for its software updates, which provide new features and security updates for years. This is a significant advantage over Android, where updates are not always guaranteed for as long.
Connectivity: Beyond 5G
All iPhone 17 models come with 5G, Wi-Fi 7, and Bluetooth 5.4 connectivity. The Pro models feature a new Ultra Wideband 2 (UWB) chip, which provides better location tracking and improved connectivity with other devices.
