iPhone 17 — Price and Full Specifications

The strongest "standard" iPhone so far — the gap to the Pro model has narrowed noticeably this year thanks to the display, the selfie camera and the chip. An excellent choice unless you specifically need the Pro telephoto lens.

+The first standard iPhone with a 120Hz display and Dynamic Island
+Very strong performance from the A19 chip
+An all-new 18MP selfie camera

−No separate, true telephoto lens
−No charger in the box
−A big enough upgrade to leave iPhone 16 owners genuinely torn
