Apple’s iPhone 17 is here

Apple has announced the iPhone 17, the latest edition of its standard model iPhone. This iteration has been upgraded with a larger 6.3-inch display and a 120Hz ProMotion refresh rate. It comes in some lightly refreshed color variations, but otherwise preserves much of the iPhone 16 design.

The iPhone 17‘s predecessor saw some big changes last year. The iPhone 16 adopted the Action Button, which had previously been exclusive to the Pro line; it reintroduced the vertical dual-camera arrangement, which had last been seen on the iPhone 12; and it added the Camera Control button, which also debuted on the iPhone 16 Pro.

Apple also heavily pushed the iPhone 16’s AI capabilities. But in the end, many of its flagship Apple Intelligence features didn’t ship. That didn’t seem to hurt the launch, though, with the iPhone 16 managing to outperform the iPhone 15 in Apple’s year-over-year Q4 sales.
