Should you buy the iPhone 17?

Buy it if

  • You want ProMotion 120Hz without paying Pro prices for the first time ever in a base iPhone
  • All-day battery life (up to 30 hours video) and a larger 6.3-inch screen matter to you
  • The Center Stage front camera for group selfies and video calls is appealing

Skip it if

  • You want a telephoto zoom lens — that remains exclusive to Pro models and iPhone Air's design tradeoffs differ too
  • You want the absolute thinnest iPhone — consider the iPhone Air instead
  • You want 8x optical-quality zoom or ProRes video — those stay Pro-exclusive
