The iPhone 17 series was unveiled by Apple on Tuesday, September 9, 2025. Let’s do a comparative study of the models.
iPhone 17: Designed with contoured edges, thinner borders and durable materials like Ceramic Shield 2 on the front, it looks — and stays — beautiful. You can see and do more of everything you love on a 15.93 cm (6.3″) Super Retina XDR display. And enjoy smoother scrolling and more immersive gaming with ProMotion, with an adaptive refresh rate up to 120Hz.
iPhone 17 has a 48MP Fusion Main camera with a 2x optical-quality telephoto and a 48MP Fusion Ultra Wide camera with 4x the resolution of the Ultra Wide camera on iPhone 16. And now, Ultra Wide photos are 24MP by default, the perfect file size for high‑quality storing and sharing. And at 256GB, it has double the starting storage of the previous model.
It is available in five different colours: Lavender, Sage, Mist Blue, White, and Black. iPhone 17 price in India starts at Rs 82,900 for the base 256GB variant, going up to Rs 1,02,900 if you want the higher 512GB model.
iPhone 17 Pro and Pro Max: iPhone 17 Pro and iPhone 17 Pro Max have been designed from the inside out to be the most powerful iPhone models ever made. At the core of the new design is a heat-forged aluminium unibody enclosure that maximises performance, battery capacity and durability.
Across the iPhone 17 Pro camera system, you’ll find innovation that goes to great lengths. This includes the longest iPhone Telephoto ever, up to an equivalent 200-millimetre focal length, with the next generation of our tetraprism design and 56% larger sensor. So you can explore an even wider range of creative choices and add a longer reach to your compositions with 16x optical zoom range. And capture stunning low-light photographs and incredible videos.
The new front camera gives you flexible ways to frame your photos and videos — and so much more. Tap to expand the field of view and rotate from portrait to landscape without moving your iPhone. And when friends join the shot, the field of view expands so you get more friendsies in your selfies.
iPhone 17 Pro price in India starts at Rs 1,34,900 for the 256GB variant, going up to Rs 1,74,900 for the 1TB model. The iPhone 17 Pro Max prices have gone up as well, now starting at Rs 1,49,900 if you want the base model, and the 2TB version takes the prices well above the Rs 2.10 lakh mark.
The iPhone Pro is available in three colours: Cosmic Orange, Deep Blue, and Silver.
