About Apple iPhone 17
Apple launched the iPhone 17, the latest edition of its standard iPhone model, on Tuesday, September 9.

The new model has been upgraded with a larger 6.3-inch display and a 120Hz ProMotion refresh rate, according to The Verge. One of the most significant upgrades is the camera system, which now includes a 48-megapixel “dual fusion” rear camera that combines the capabilities of a main camera and a telephoto lens into a single unit, according to Apple.
According to Apple, the new model also has a 48-megapixel fusion ultrawide that’s capable of capturing images in 4x higher resolution compared to the iPhone 16. A striking feature in the new model is the new square-shaped front camera sensor, which lets users capture high-quality selfies in landscape mode without rotating their phone.
