The iPhone 17 features a redesigned look with a slightly larger 6.3-inch display and narrower edges. 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 faster and more energy-efficient, especially when teamed up with Apple Intelligence. If you're upgrading from an older iPhone, you'll see a massive increase in speed and smoother gaming thanks to ProMotion.
On the camera front, you'll find a 48MP Fusion main camera (shooting 24MP photos by default) and 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 in need of a case that lets your iPhone's design shine, a leather case for a classy look, or a rugged case for heavy-duty use, you will find it at Campad Electronics.
