iPhone 17 series: Apple on Tuesday said it has unveiled the iPhone 17 series, priced between Rs 82,900 and Rs 2,29,900, which will be available in India from September 19.
The company has also introduced its thinnest iPhone ever – the iPhone Air series – with a 5.6 millimeter thickness that will support eSIMs only.
The company has discontinued the option of the lower storage capacity of 128GB in the new iPhone models, which also led to the higher price of base models compared to the iPhone 16 series.

iPhone 17 Pro Max will be available in 256GB, 512GB, 1TB, and for the first time, a 2TB storage capacity. “iPhone 17 Pro is the most advanced iPhone ever, featuring a striking new design and powerful capability,” Apple CEO Tim Cook said.
