The iPhone 17 gets a fresh design with a slightly larger 6.3-inch display and slimmer bezels. And after a long wait (and a lot of grumbling), the base iPhone 17 finally features a 120Hz refresh rate.
Internally, Apple’s new A19 chip is more powerful and also more optimized, particularly when paired with Apple Intelligence. If you're upgrading from an older iPhone, you'll notice a huge jump in speed and better gaming performance thanks to ProMotion.
Camera wise, you'll find a 48MP Fusion main camera (shooting 24MP photos by default) as well as a 2x telephoto lens. The device’s ultra-wide camera also receives an upgrade to 48MP, making macro photography crisper and much more refined.
Thinking about picking up the iPhone 17?, don't worry about looking for case options, Campad Electronics, a top Australian retailer of phone accessories, already has a great variety of options listed for all models, so you can ensure your phone is both safe and stylish.
