In the case of building blocks, IPhone 17 happened It is expected to be made of aluminum (grade 7000), and will have a scratch resistant glass display in the next and back, possibly some different types of Apple’s ceramic shield.
IPhone 16 Plus Aluminum frames and glasses are included in front and rear, so there is no big difference in the stability of the material. Thin IPhone 17 happened This may result in a more delicate device, but we have to examine its ourselves to see.

120 Hearts Promotion!
It seems that Apple is going to step in the future (or should we exist?) With IPhone 17 Lineup. It is expected that all models will be treated to promote, which will provide them with a dynamic refresh rate of 120 Hz. It was time!
IPhone 17 happened It is expected to have small 6.6 inches (or 6.65 inches; contradictory rumors on this topic) with a resolution of the OLED display 1320 x 2868 pixels, resulting in about 45 458 PPI pixel density. Rumors’ brightness is 1000 nets in normal and 2000 nets in HBM (high brightness mode), so it is similar IPhone 16 Plus.
Talking about which is a huge difference here, and it is slow of 60 Hz Rashid Rate IPhone 16 Plus. In addition, the resolution is 1290 x 2796 pixels (460 PPI), and its size is slightly larger at 6.7 inches. The glow figures are the same, and we have been able to measure over 1000 nits in 100 APAPLs, no bad consequences.

As always, once we hold hands on our hands we will conduct our detailed and full display tests IPhone 17 happenedSo be in touch.
Performance and Software
A surface silicon
IPhone 17 happened It is expected that the next gene A19 will get chip. Initial rumors suggested that this can be made on silicon 2NM manufacturing node, but the latest information refers to 3NM technology, which features better performance and more power than A18.
It is expected that the situation in Ram will not change between the two. IPhone 17 happened It is believed that 8 GB descends with Ram, so much of the quantity RAM is available IPhone 16 Plus.
In terms of storage, we do not expect major changes. IPhone 17 happened The same 128/256/512 should offer storage options as available on the Lord IPhone 16 Plus. Artificial benchmarks will show what the same jump will be, but we have to wait for them.

Camera
Another cyclops
Apple is going again with the same main camera route IPhone 17 happened. This is once again the situation of the iPhone 16E, which has only one 48 MP wide camera on duty in the back. This is the same as the same camera as found on one IPhone 16 Plus (At least the latest rumors), so any possible changes should be attributed to software processing algorithms.Main

IPhone 16 Plus The benefit of a dedicated ultra -wide camera, it has a 12MP sensor on the F/2.2 lens and its focal length is equal to 13 mm. None of these two phones comes with a dedicated telephonic camera, so consumers will have to rely on 2x crops from the main sensor.
IPhone 16 Plus Our camera benchmark arranged to score 149, which is a beautiful decent outcome, keeping in view the lack of telephoto, so it would be interesting to see how IPhone 17 happened Will rent in a single test. For comparison purposes, single camera IPhone 16 e Just scored 118 runs, so things don’t look good. Once we finish this review, keep up for tests and real life as well as photos IPhone 17 happened.
Battery life and charging
Worrying ability …
Apple is known for conservative approach toward battery scope and charging, and we do not expect it to change with it IPhone 17 How thin the series has been IPhone 17 happened It is expected that sacrifices made with battery capacity are nothing unexpectedly.
Various Certification Authorities’ latest information indicates 3,000 mAh capacity IPhone 17 happenedWhich doesn’t look so bad, considering the size and weight of the phone.
IPhone 16 PlusOn the other hand, there is a very large battery, which lands at 4674 MAH, and it also appears in our battery test. In the past 2 years, the phone was number #38 for the phone with a comprehensive score of 7H 31m.iphone 17 Air*iPhone 16 Plus.Battery scope

Abstract
Do we need ultra -thin phone? This is the basic question that we need to answer before answering IPhone 17 happened. The price of $ 899 is in conflict with the phone IPhone 16 Plus.
So, what is different? Screen on the screen IPhone 17 happened It is expected that it will be better (finally treating promotion), and the inside silicon should be faster, deciding according to the usual tuck cycle of Apple chips.
On the negative side, compared to IPhone 16 PlusYou get a low camera and a small battery. Whether people choose this particular trade, it will be very soon to say. Let’s not forget that most of the air upgrades will be offered except the thin size in the iPhone 17 Plus.
So, if you really want to get a big screen iPhone and don’t care about paper -thin designs, both IPhone 16 Plus And his successor will do well. But if you want to jump on the latest trend and test the 5.5 mm device, there is no other option in the market. Should wait for you IPhone 17 happened.
