"The idea of " tyranny of choice" says that having a set of good choices is supposed to let everyone find exactly what makes them most happy, but the reality is that having so many good choices can often lead to anxiety, indecisiveness, and discontent. If we apply this concept to the iPhone 17 lineup, then Apple is quite the tyrant this year. After all, the base model is more pro than ever and offers the best value-for-money in 2025."
"The fact that Apple poured so many upgrades into the iPhone 17 was the surprise of the 2025 Apple Event for me. First of all, Apple finally did a major facelift to the iPhone 17's screen technology, kicking it up to 6.3-inches (from 6.1 last year) with thinner bezels, 120Hz ProMotion display, 3000 nits of peak brightness, an anti-reflective coating, and an always-on display."
The iPhone 17 lineup presents multiple strong options that can overwhelm buyers. The $799 iPhone 17 now includes pro-level features and wider appeal beyond entry-level users. The base model gains a 6.3-inch display (up from 6.1), thinner bezels, 120Hz ProMotion, 3000 nits peak brightness, anti-reflective coating, and an always-on display. Camera systems have been upgraded, moving the base model to a 48MP sensor. Pro models have addressed the biggest weaknesses from the prior generation. Recommendations differ by model and by the specific needs of the upgrader.
