Apple’s next-generation iPhone 17 series is already generating buzz well before its anticipated release in September 2025. Although the design is expected to remain mostly unchanged, the new model is rumored to feature a larger screen, ProMotion technology, enhanced performance, and notable camera improvements. Additionally, reports suggest that Apple may discontinue the “Plus” variant in the iPhone 17 series, likely due to its underwhelming market response.
As per a recent update shared by tipster Majin Bu on X (formerly known as Twitter), cases for the entire iPhone 17 lineup — including the iPhone 17, 17 Pro, 17 Air, and 17 Pro Max — have surfaced online in detailed leaks. Interestingly, the tipster also mentioned that interested buyers can pre-order these cases by directly messaging them. This is quite unusual, especially since the official launch is still roughly four months away, and there’s always a chance that things could change before then.
The leaked cases also offer a clear glimpse into the expected design of the upcoming iPhone 17 series. Previous leaks of the iPhone 17 Pro and 17 Pro Max had already hinted at significant design elements, and these cases further validate the presence of noticeably large camera modules on both models.
For the first time, Apple is anticipated to introduce the 120Hz ProMotion refresh rate to the standard iPhone model, a feature that was previously reserved for the Pro versions. This enhanced, fluid screen experience will be powered by energy-efficient LTPO OLED panels sourced from Samsung. There’s also speculation that this upgrade could pave the way for an always-on display feature, although this has not been officially confirmed.
Expected Price of iPhone 17 Series in India:
The iPhone 17 series is likely to launch in India with a starting price of around ₹79,900. However, the final pricing for both standard and Pro variants might see an upward revision due to import duties that were introduced during Donald Trump’s presidency. Furthermore, ongoing geopolitical tensions between the United States and China could drive up manufacturing costs in China, potentially impacting the overall pricing of the devices.
