JAKARTA - Rumors about the iPhone 17 are increasingly being heard ahead of its launch in September 2025. Apple is rumored to be releasing four new models, namely the iPhone 17, iPhone 17 Air, the iPhone 17 Pro, and the iPhone 17 Pro Max in the US. With various innovative features leaked to the public, here are the eight most interesting features and have the potential to make users switch to the iPhone 17:

1. ProMotion for All ModelApples will eventually bring ProMotion technology to the entire iPhone 17 line. With a refresh rate of up to 120Hz that can be adjusted automatically, basic model users are no longer limited to 60Hz. This is good news for those who prioritize a smoother and more responsive screen display.

2. 48MPSeri iPhone 17 Pro and Pro Max Telephoto Cameras will get significant improvements on the telephoto camera, which now also has 48MP resolution. This complements the rear camera trio, which were previously just high-resolution main and ultra-wide lenses. With this upgrade, users can take zoom photos with sharper details and improve the quality of digital zoom.

3. iPhone 17 Air: A New, More TipisApple Model is rumored to replace the Plus model with a new variant called the iPhone 17 Air or the iPhone 17 Slim. This phone will have a super-thin design of about 5.5 mm thickness, much slimmer than the iPhone 16 Pro which has a thickness of 8.25 mm. At a more affordable price than the Pro series, the iPhone 17 Air is expected to attract more users.

4. The New Cooling System Apple will provide a vapor-cooling chamber (vapor cooling chamber) system to keep the device's temperature stable. With this technology, the phone will remain cold, increase battery life, accelerate charging, and maintain optimal performance when running heavy applications and games with high frame rates.

5. Chipset A19 All iPhone 17 models will be equipped with Apple's newest chipset, A19. Regular models and iPhone 17 Air will use A19, while the Pro variant will get the A19 Pro. Although initially rumored to be using the 2nm fabrication process, it is possible that Apple will continue to use more mature technology for production stability.

6. Always-On Display for All Models In addition to higher refresh rate, ProMotion also allows all iPhone 17 models to support Always-On Display features. Now users can see time, battery, and widget without having to turn on the screen completely. In addition, StandBy mode will also remain active without having to turn off automatically.

7. A New Design for the iPhone 17 ProSeri Model will get a redesign with a glass back and a metal camera module that is fully stretched at the top of the device. This will be the first major design change since the iPhone X era and will help distinguish new models from previous generations.

8. The 24MP Front camera After staying with the 12MP front camera since the iPhone 11, Apple has finally increased the resolution of the selfie camera to 24MP. This increase will produce selfies in more sharp detail, especially in low light conditions.

With so many pro features now available in the regular model and the presence of the iPhone 17 Air as a new option, many users are predicted to be interested in upgrading. We'll just have to wait for the official launch in the fall of 2025.
