Apple’s iPhone 17 series launch is still around nine months away, but the rumors are already buzzing. With anticipated design changes, the iPhone 17 series is expected to come with a significant display upgrade. Reports suggest that Apple may finally introduce a 120Hz refresh rate for the iPhone 17 and the new iPhone 17 Air, which could replace the Plus variant.
According to renowned Chinese tipster Digital Chat Station, the iPhone 17 is set to feature a faster refresh rate. Currently, Apple offers 60Hz panels for the standard models, reserving the 120Hz refresh rate for its Pro variants. Interestingly, the tipster did not provide specific details regarding the refresh rate specs for the iPhone 17.
Will the iPhone 17 Get ProMotion Display?
With Pro variants now equipped with the ProMotion display, there’s a possibility that Apple will extend this feature to the iPhone 17. This could enhance user experience significantly, offering seamless scrolling and always-on functionality. However, for the iPhone 17 to support ProMotion, it would need LTPO panels, aligning the display quality of the standard models closer to the Pro variants.
Previously, analyst Ross Young speculated that the ProMotion display would be included in both the iPhone 17 and the 17 Air. Yet, as of now, Apple has not confirmed any of these developments. We can expect definitive details when Apple unveils the iPhone 17 series, likely in September 2025.
If these leaks hold true, the iPhone 17 and iPhone 17 Air may see a notable price increase due to the inclusion of the ProMotion display. Apple has maintained consistent pricing for the vanilla models for some time. In India, the expected price for the new vanilla trim is around Rs 79,900.
