Apple Iphone Air (2025)

The iPhone 17 series features a dual-lens camera system, including a new ultra-wide 48 megapixel camera alongside a separate lens with varying megapixel offerings depending on the model. An updated front camera will allow users to take landscape selfies while holding the phone vertically, making it no longer necessary to hold the smartphone horizontally for such images.

A new generation of Apple silicon chips, known as the A19 and A19 Pro, enable greater processing power, the company said. The iPhone 17 series also increase the size of the display screen by narrowing the border on the perimeter of the smartphone. Each iPhone 17 model comes with 256 gigabytes of memory.

The new iPhone models better incorporate Apple Intelligence, the company’s artificial-intelligence driven software, the company said. Meanwhile, the iPhone 17 Pro Max uses new battery technology to offer the longest lasting battery life of any iPhone model ever offered.

The event, which Apple promoted under the moniker “awe dropping,” also featured new versions of the Apple Watch and AirPods.
