Apple launched the iPhone 17 series today at its "awe-dropping" event, with the base model getting an upgraded display. The iPhone 17 has a slightly bigger screen at 6.3 inches as compared to the 6.1-inch screen of the iPhone 16. The display is getting an upgrade with ProMotion, which is being used in the base model for the first time.

It supports a 120 Hz refresh rate and dynamically switches to different refresh rates using the LTPO (low-temperature polycrystalline oxide) tech. This display also has a peak brightness of 3,000 nits for better outside legibility. This display is now protected by Ceramic Shield 2 with better scratch resistance.The phone is powered by a 3 nm A19 processor with a new display engine to power the display update.

The iPhone 17 gets a new 48-megapixel ultrawide camera. The phone's camera system also powers 2x optical telephoto and better macro photos.

The company updated the front camera with a new 18-megapixel square sensor. Apple said this allows you to take selfies in different formats without switching orientation. Plus, it also said that the new selfie center will let you capture more stable videos. The new iPhone 17 front camera also supports Center Stage for calls.

This phone will be available in lavender, mist blue, black, white, and sage colors. The iPhone 17 will start at $799 with base storage of 256GB. The iPhone 16 started at $699 for 128GB. In essence, the pricing for a comparable model is the same, but you don’t get to choose a 128GB model.
