"Aesthetically, the iPhone 17 appears largely unchanged, retaining its glass exterior, stacked dual camera array, and aluminum frame. The most noticeable change is the introduction of new pastel colorways, which include Lavender, Sage, and Mist Blue, in addition to the traditional White and Black. However, there are lots of meaningful design changes that make it a big upgrade. Starting with perhaps the biggest design upgrade: the inclusion of the ProMotion display."
"With the iPhone 17, Apple finally made the 120Hz ProMotion display, which was typically limited to Pro users, uniform across the entire lineup, even the base model. If you are coming from a previous iPhone base model and are not accustomed to higher refresh rate displays, you are in for a treat. Trust me, while subtle, you will notice the difference."
The iPhone 17 base model adds meaningful upgrades while retaining its glass exterior, stacked dual camera array, and aluminum frame. New pastel colorways include Lavender, Sage, and Mist Blue alongside White and Black. The base model now features a 120Hz ProMotion display previously limited to Pro models, yielding noticeably smoother motion. Storage doubles to 256GB while the starting price remains unchanged from the predecessor. Real-world testing over a week-long trip and a 12-hour flight highlighted daily photography capabilities and extended use, with notable standouts and some caveats to consider. The combination of performance and value makes it the season's best option for most users.
