Apple’s iPhone 17

Apple unveiled its all-new phones, the iPhone 17 series. That's updates to three known models and the brand-new iPhone 17 Air, that replaces the Plus. If waiting in line on release day isn't your style, but you still wish to secure one as soon as possible, you'll be able to place a pre-order for the iPhone 17, 17 Pro Max, 17 Pro or iPhone 17 Air from 10pm AEST on September 12th, ahead of the September 19 release date.

Aplpe’s iPhone 17 gets a fresh design with a slightly larger 6.3-inch display and slimmer bezels. And after much anticipation (and a ton of grumbling), the base iPhone 17 finally gets a 120Hz refresh rate.

Under the hood, the new A19 chip is quicker and also more optimized, particularly when paired with Apple Intelligence. If you're upgrading from an older iPhone, you'll experience a massive increase in speed and improved gameplay thanks to ProMotion.
On the camera front, you'll find a 48MP Fusion main camera (shooting 24MP photos by default) as well as a 2x telephoto lens. The ultra-wide camera also receives an upgrade to 48MP, making macro photography crisper and much more refined.

When it comes to accessorizing your new iPhone 17, you won't be disappointed. Retailers like Campad Electronics are already offering a vast array of cases for all models, so whether you're after a clear case to show off your device, a leather case for a premium feel, or a rugged case for heavy-duty use, you'll find it at Campad Electronics.
