For years, Apple's standard iPhones felt like second-class citizens compared to their "Pro" counterparts. But with the iPhone 17, Apple has done something different. Finally, regular iPhones have Pro-level features without the Pro-level pricing. From the stunning 6.3-inch ProMotion display that's as buttery-smooth as the Pro's to an 18-megapixel front camera packed with clever features, the iPhone 17 truly closes the gap.
But it's not just the visuals and selfies that have improved. Apple's doubled the base storage to 256GB without hiking the price, meaning you won't need to babysit your storage. They've also upped durability with Ceramic Shield 2 and added faster wired and wireless charging. So, unless you're chasing after extreme zoom capabilities, high-end video production, or ultra-high storage, the standard iPhone 17 is the iPhone most people have been waiting for. And that's exactly how Apple wants it to be.
