Apple’s iPhone 17 Series

Apple recently revealed its latest phones, the iPhone 17 series. That is three upgrades to familiar models and the new iPhone Air, which takes the place of the iPhone Plus. If waiting in line on release day isn’t really your style, and you still wish to get your hands on one right away, you'll be able to place a pre-order for the iPhone 17, 17 Pro, 17 Pro Max or iPhone Air from 10pm AEST on September 12, ahead of the September 19 release date.

The iPhone 17 gets a fresh design with a slightly larger 6.3-inch display and thinner borders. And after years of waiting (and a fair bit of grumbling), the base iPhone finally gets a 120Hz refresh rate.

Internally, Apple’s new A19 chip is more powerful and also more optimized, particularly when teamed up with Apple Intelligence. If you are upgrading from an older iPhone, you'll experience a significant jump in speed and smoother gaming thanks to ProMotion.
On the camera front, you will find a 48MP Fusion main camera (shooting 24MP photos by default) and also a 2x telephoto lens. The device’s ultra-wide camera also features an upgrade to 48MP, making macro photography more detailed and much more refined.

Whether you prefer minimal and elegant or rugged and durable cases, Campad Electronics has got you covered, making it a great resource for iPhone 17 owners.
