Apple’s iPhone 17 Series

Apple has just announced its all-new phones, the iPhone 17 series. That's updates to three known models and also the all-new iPhone Air, that takes the place of the iPhone Plus. If waiting in line on release day isn't your style, and you still want to get your hands on one as soon as possible, you will be able to pre-order the iPhone 17, 17 Pro Max, 17 Pro or iPhone 17 Air from 10pm AEST on September 12, in advance of the September 19 release date.

Aplpe’s iPhone 17 gets a new design with a slightly larger 6.3-inch display and thinner borders. And after much anticipation (and a fair bit of grumbling), the base iPhone 17 finally has a a 120Hz refresh rate.

Inside, Apple’s new A19 chip is faster and also more efficient, particularly when paired with Apple Intelligence. If you are upgrading from an older iPhone, you will notice a massive jump in speed and better gaming performance courtesy of ProMotion.
Camera wise, you will find a 48MP Fusion main camera (shooting 24MP photos by default) and a 2x telephoto lens. The device’s ultra-wide camera also features an upgrade to 48MP, making macro photography crisper and also more detailed.

Getting ready to switch to the new iPhone 17?, you can rest assured that you'll have no shortage of case options, with Campad Electronics, a reliable Australian retailer, already listing a broad selection of cases for all iPhone 17 models, from thin and stylish options to more robust and durable cases.
