iPhone 17: What We Know So Far About The Upcoming Apple Model
Apple is expected to launch the iPhone 17 in September 2025, continuing its annual update cycle for its flagship smartphone line. While the company has not confirmed any specifications, analysts and supply chain reports have provided early indications of what users can expect. According to a recent note by TF International Securities analyst Ming-Chi Kuo, Apple may introduce a new design for the iPhone 17 series, which could include changes to the front-facing camera system. Kuo has suggested that a 'pill-and-hole' display cutout, first seen in the iPhone 14 Pro models, may be removed in favour of an under-display camera and Face ID technology. Reports from display industry sources, including Display Supply Chain Consultants (DSCC), have indicated that Apple is working with suppliers such as Samsung and LG to integrate under-display components. However, full implementation may be limited to higher-end models in the iPhone 17 range. The iPhone 17 may also feature improvements in processing power. Apple is likely to debut the A19 chip, built on an advanced node by TSMC, although no official confirmation has been made. In previous years, Apple has introduced new chips with each flagship model. There is also speculation around changes to the phone's materials. According to Bloomberg , Apple is exploring the use of lighter casing materials, possibly involving aluminium or a different grade of titanium for select models. The company introduced titanium in the iPhone 15 Pro line, replacing stainless steel. Analysts have suggested that the iPhone 17 line-up could include a new 'Slim' model, which may replace the Plus variant. This version is expected to feature a slightly smaller display and a different design, although Apple has not commented on the matter. Apple has not officially announced the iPhone 17, and all details remain subject to change. The company typically unveils new iPhones in early September, followed by a release later in the month.

IPhone 16E vs. iPhone 15 Pro: Affordable Alternatives to the iPhone 16
The iPhone 16 is an excellent handset for Apple aficionados, but $799 can be pretty pricey for a lot of people. But there are a couple of good options that are both cheaper and have Apple Intelligence: the iPhone 16E and the iPhone 15 Pro. Both have 6.1-inch displays, but the Pro has a few more perks. The 16E starts at $599, but Apple no longer sells the 15 Pro. However, you can snag a used version of the 15 Pro for anywhere between $538 and $684 or get a refurbished one from Apple for $759. On top of that, both phones will get iOS 26 when it's available this fall. This guide will help you understand which one is worth it for you. However, we should add that July is typically a bad time to buy a new iPhone, as there will likely be a new model in September, and older models might get an additional price drop. One of the biggest selling points of the iPhone 16E is that it offers a decent bang for the buck. It is Apple's most affordable iPhone, but it still has many of the same features as the regular iPhone 16, such as the latest A18 chip and Apple Intelligence, which introduces generative emoji, smarter notifications and, eventually, an improved Siri. Yet, it might be worth looking at the company's older iPhones, such as the iPhone 15 Pro. A new iPhone 15 Pro isn't as cheap as the iPhone 16E, but it has much better features, such as a nicer camera, a higher-resolution screen, a titanium body and better charging capabilities. You can get the 15 Pro at a lower price than if you buy it used or refurbished. How do these phones compare? We've outlined a few features for you to find out which one is the best iPhone for you. Watch this: iPhone 16E Review 07:20 The iPhone 16E and the iPhone 15 Pro both have 6.1-inch displays, but the Pro has a few more perks. Celso Bulgatti/CNET Display The iPhone 16E and the iPhone 15 Pro feature the same 6.1-inch screen size at a similar display resolution, but there are still a few differences. The iPhone 16E runs at a 60Hz refresh rate -- similar to all of the non-Pro iPhone models -- and it can reach a 1,200-nit peak brightness. It also has a similar display notch to the iPhone 14, and doesn't support the Dynamic Island that serves up contextual information on other iPhone 15 and 16 models. It's functional and should work fine whether you're using the phone indoors or outdoors, but the Pro's screen has several additional perks. The iPhone 15 Pro (right, seen here with the 15 Pro Max), includes the Dynamic Island around its display cutout. James Martin/CNET The iPhone 15 Pro's display can run at a variable refresh rate between 10Hz and 120Hz, changing based on what activity you're doing. You can expect to see the smoother 120Hz refresh rate when scrolling through websites, playing games and other applications that benefit from smoother animations. According to Apple, it will hit the lower end of that range to conserve battery life when you aren't using the phone. The display also hits a higher 2,000 nits of peak brightness (outdoors) and includes the Dynamic Island that shows information like the music player or countdowns around the space of the front-facing camera's display cutout. Both the iPhone 16E (seen here) and the iPhone 15 Pro can play more graphically-intense games such as Resident Evil 4 Remake. Celso Bulgatti/CNET Processor The iPhone 15 Pro has the A17 Pro chip, which is a six-core CPU with two performance and four efficiency cores that makes it great for graphics and gaming. The iPhone 16E, on the other hand, ships with the latest A18 chip, which gives it a touch more power and speed. In practice, the A17 Pro is still a very capable chip that will serve you well for years to come. The A18 chip, however, will likely receive software and new feature updates for a slightly longer period of time. Both processors are capable of running Apple Intelligence and more advanced iPhone games like Resident Evil 4 Remake and Death Stranding. The iPhone 16 has a Clean Up tool that can remove unwanted elements from photos. Numi Prasarn/CNET Apple Intelligence One of the iPhone 16E's biggest highlights is that it supports Apple Intelligence, which was previously only available in Apple's high-end offerings like the iPhone 15 Pro and the iPhone 16. Apple Intelligence offers plenty of benefits, such as smart writing tools, a Clean Up tool that removes unwanted elements from photos and a potentially smarter Siri in a future update. The iPhone 15 Pro, as mentioned, has had this from the start, so the two are fairly equal in this department. The iPhone 16E has a single 48-megapixel main camera. Celso Bulgatti/CNET Camera The biggest visual difference between the iPhone 16E and the iPhone 15 Pro is that the latter has three cameras instead of one. The iPhone 15 Pro has a 48-megapixel wide lens, a 12-megapixel ultrawide lens and a 12-megapixel telephoto lens with 3x optical zoom. It also has a large 48-megapixel sensor that helps immensely in low light. The iPhone 16E, on the other hand, only has a single 48-megapixel rear camera. It has to rely on sensor-cropping for improved zoomed-in shots. Both have 12-megapixel front-facing cameras. The iPhone 15 Pro and Pro Max have three cameras on the back. James Martin/CNET Charging Another downside to the iPhone 16E is that it lacks support for MagSafe wireless charging and is only compatible with Qi charging capped at 7.5 watts. The iPhone 15 Pro, on the other hand, supports 15-watt MagSafe charging. Not only can it wireless charge at twice the speed, it also supports a whole range of magnetic accessories that the iPhone 16E won't be able to use unless it has a third-party MagSafe-compatible case. Both phones use USB-C for wired charging, with Apple citing that both can recharge their battery to 50% in 30 minutes when connected to a 20-watt adapter. In CNET's review testing for the iPhone 16E and iPhone 15 Pro, both phones tested slightly better than this. The iPhone 16E recharged from 0% to 59% in 30 minutes, and the 15 Pro recharged from 0% to 62% after being updated to iOS 17.0.3. Both the iPhone 16E and the 15 Pro charge over USB-C. Celso Bulgatti/CNET Pricing (and a note on buying refurbished) Obviously, the iPhone 16E offers a lower price as it retails for just $599. Apple, however, is now officially selling a refurbished version of the 15 Pro for just $759, which is cheaper than the $799 iPhone 16. Sure, that's more expensive than the 16E, but the Pro's extra features might be worth a higher price for you. Additionally, while buying phones in a secondary market has its issues (the phone might not always be in great shape), Apple's official refurbished program has an excellent reputation that is akin to buying the product new. Check out the following chart to see how the iPhone 16E and the iPhone 15 Pro stack up in other aspects.

Apple could ditch titanium on iPhone 17 Pro — and keep it exclusive to iPhone 17 Air
There's bad news for those of you that enjoy having a titanium frame on your iPhone. While the metal played a huge part in marketing for iPhone 15 Pro and iPhone 16 Pro, word is that Apple may be scrapping the design for most iPhone 17 models — with only the iPhone 17 Air sporting the metal. We've heard rumors about this before, and the latest word comes from analyst Jeff Pu in a recent research note. According to the note the iPhone 17, iPhone 17 Pro and iPhone 17 Pro Max will all have aluminum frames — with titanium reserved exclusively for the Air. As MacRumors points out, aluminum is actually lighter than titanium. Which means Apple isn't doing this to ensure the 17 Air is as light as possible. However titanium is a lot more durable, and the thinner design may require a little more protection than aluminum alone can offer. This isn't the first time we've heard this particular rumor. The Information previously reported that the iPhone 17 Pro wouldn't come with titanium, while Ming Chi-Kuo reiterated the fact that the 17 Air will be coming with a blend of aluminum and titanium in its chassis. It's not clear why Apple might be ditching titanium so quickly, especially after making such a big deal about its debut on iPhone 15 Pro. We even noted that the phones felt extremely light in our iPhone 15 Pro Max review, showcasing one of the benefits of having the new metal in place of stainless steel. Steel is just as durable as some grades of titanium, but is simultaneously much heavier. So that's a clear benefit of using titanium, alongside the fact it sounds cooler than stainless steel or aluminum — which are both boring, ultra-common materials. It's the kind of change the marketing team can (and did) go nuts with. Get instant access to breaking news, the hottest reviews, great deals and helpful tips. Sadly titanium is expensive, and with the cost of just about everything rising all the time, I can understand why Apple might want to cut costs where it can. That way it can continue to sell iPhones without raising the price which, in the age of tariffs, is probably more important than ever. It'll be interesting to see how this plays out, and what a potential change to the material will do for iPhone durability. But hey, since aluminum is easily recycled, that's something Apple 's marketing department can focus on this year.
