In India, the price may start at ₹1,64,990. In Europe, the base model could cost about €950. These differences reflect taxes, duties, and currency factors.
Features and Upgrades in the iPhone 17
The iPhone 17 is set to launch with Apple’s new A19 Pro chip. The chip uses a 3 nm process for higher speed and better power efficiency. The device is also expected to have 12 GB of RAM, a major jump from last year.
The display will be an LTPO Super Retina XDR OLED with 120 Hz refresh rate. Brightness may peak at 2,000 nits, making it easier to use outdoors. Apple is also working on a slimmer aluminium frame, making the iPhone 17 the thinnest model yet.
Camera upgrades will include three 48 MP sensors. This setup will deliver stronger photo and video performance. Apple is also adding faster Qi2 wireless charging, reverse charging support, and improved battery efficiency.
Impact for Buyers and the Market
The iPhone 17 combines more storage, better performance, and brighter display without a major price hike in the U.S. Global buyers may still pay more due to import costs. Still, the new features make the iPhone 17 one of the most powerful smartphones on the market.
It will also ship with iOS 26. Apple’s software will bring deeper integration of Apple Intelligence, stronger Wi-Fi, and new color options. This release strengthens Apple’s position in the premium smartphone market.
