Frens, Apple showed up and showed out at today’s Apple Event, and the star of the show was the brand-new iPhone 17 lineup.
Not only did we get four fresh models, but Apple also dropped new AirPods Pro 3, Apple Watches, and even gave us the scoop on iOS 26.
If you missed the live stream, don’t worry, I’ve got you covered with everything you need to know about the new iPhone and more.
📅 When Is The iPhone 17 Release Date?
The iPhone 17, iPhone 17 Pro, iPhone 17 Pro Max, and the iPhone 17 Air will all officially hit shelves on September 19, 2025.
Pre-orders kick off this week on Apple.com, the Apple Store app, and with carriers like AT&T and Xfinity Mobile.
💸 iPhone 17 Prices And Models
Here’s the breakdown, because I know y’all wanna talk numbers:
- iPhone 17 – $799. Bigger 6.3-inch ProMotion display and a boosted camera system.
- iPhone 17 Air – $999. The brand-new model that’s thinner, lighter, and rocking a titanium body.

- iPhone 17 Pro Max – $1,199. Same starting price, but there’s a new 2TB model that tops out at a jaw-dropping $1,999.
Apple also confirmed the iPhone 16 Pro and iPhone 16 Pro Max are officially out of the lineup.
🎨 iPhone 17 Colors
Apple came through with the vibes this year.
The iPhone 17 colors include Lavender, Mist Blue, Black, White, and Sage.
The iPhone 17 Pro and iPhone 17 Pro Max colors also got their shine with premium finishes that scream luxury.
And you already know cases and accessories are about to flood the Apple Store and beyond.
🔥 What’s New Inside The iPhone 17?
Apple packed in some real upgrades this time:
- iPhone 17 Air: 5.6mm thin, titanium frame, and “all-day battery life” despite being super lightweight.
- Cameras: The Pro and Pro Max are flexing with a triple 48MP camera system, 8x zoom, and improved stabilization.
- Chip Power: The A19 Pro chip can run AI models locally. Apple even compared its GPU performance to a MacBook Pro.
- Storage Shake-Up: Storage upgrades now jump by $200 instead of $100, so brace your wallets.
- Durability: New Ceramic Shield 2, making it three times more scratch resistant than before.
🎧 AirPods Pro 3 And Apple Watch Series 11
The AirPods Pro 3 are staying at $249 but bring improved noise canceling and a wild new feature: real-time language translation.
Imagine traveling overseas and your AirPods are basically your personal translator.
The Apple Watch Series 11, SE 3, and Ultra 3 are holding steady at their usual prices but are packing an AI-powered feature that can predict high blood pressure risks.
The Ultra 3 got some extra love with a brighter display, satellite connectivity, and 5G coverage.
🌐 iOS 26 Update
Mark your calendars because iOS 26 is dropping on Monday, September 15, 2025.
Apple redesigned the entire look with a sleek new “liquid glass” design that moves like water when you scroll.
It’s giving futuristic, but still super user-friendly.
💰 Apple Trade-In And Deals
Apple is pushing its trade-in program heavy this year, so if you’re still holding on to your iPhone 14 Pro Max or even your iPhone 15 Pro Max, this is your chance to upgrade.
Carriers like AT&T and Xfinity Mobile will have promos too, so shop around before you hit that pre-order button.
📊 Apple Event Recap
Apple’s CEO Tim Cook called this a “new era for iPhone,” and you can tell the company is betting big on design and AI this year.
Tech outlets like MacRumors, The Verge, 9to5Mac, Engadget, and CNET are already buzzing with Apple news, and Wall Street has its eyes on $AAPL after this Apple announcement.
