Briefly

Which iPhone 17 Model Should You Buy?
"Apple's 2025 iPhones are here, and things are quite different for the first time in a while. The base iPhone 17 will still feel familiar, but the iPhone 17 Pro models have a completely new look, and there's a brand-new model called the iPhone Air. The "Air" branding has been somewhat diluted of late-the current-gen iPad Pro models are lighter than the iPad Air-but the iPhone Air brings meaning back to the original idea: a super-thin and ultra-lightweight device."
"If you have an iPhone from just a few years ago, you probably don't need to upgrade to Apple's latest, unless your device has issues. Even then, there are things you can do to fix your iPhone, like getting a battery replacement, or you can try some of these troubleshooting steps. The point is, you shouldn't feel the need to upgrade just because Apple has a new model."
"If you're set on buying an iPhone 17 model, we have a guide on how to sell your iPhone so that it doesn't just collect dust in a drawer. When your new device arrives, back up your old iPhone before switching to the new one, then follow our guide on factory resetting your device before selling or giving it away. We also have tips on how to set up your new iPhone and what settings to change to get the most out of it."
The 2025 iPhone lineup introduces a new ultra-thin iPhone Air alongside the familiar base iPhone 17 and redesigned iPhone 17 Pro models. Preorders begin September 12 with official sales on September 19. Most users with relatively recent iPhones likely do not need to upgrade unless the device has problems; common fixes include battery replacement and troubleshooting. Guidance exists for selling an old iPhone, backing up data, factory resetting before transfer, and configuring settings on the new device to optimize performance. The iPhone Air emphasizes weight and thinness while core features remain consistent across models.
