It's so fast, only 3 months left before the release of the iPhone 17 series.
The good news is that according to the latest revelations, this generation of standard version supports a 120Hz refresh rate. Since the first time the iPhone 13 Pro supports high refresh calculation, it has been four years since this feature has finally been delegated to the standard version!
The bad news is that without ProMotion technology, it cannot achieve an adaptive refresh rate of 1 to 120Hz like Pro.
But the good news is that this may mean that the refresh rate of the iPhone 17 can be fixed at 120Hz, which means that it can achieve high brushing at full blood, which is something that the Pro series cannot set.
The bad news is that 120Hz in the entire scene may make the iPhone 17's power consumption exaggerated. At the same time, without 1~120Hz adaptation, the "all-weather display" function should not be realized, because this function is presented at a minimum 1Hz refresh rate.
In addition, according to the latest forecast of analyst Jeff Pu, Apple will introduce Metalens technology in the entire iPhone 17 series. This technology is mainly used in Face ID Rx and Tx, which can reduce and thin structural components, further reducing the area of the "Spiritual Island".
The screen upgrades to 120Hz and Little Lingdong Island are considered an epic enhancement. But...everyone also knows that for the standard iPhone version, it is impossible for Apple to squeeze out too much toothpaste at once, otherwise it will definitely affect the sales of the more expensive Pro version.
So, the upgrades to iPhone 17 in other aspects are relatively limited. According to the leak, its appearance will continue the current iPhone 16 design, and it still uses a rear vertical dual-camera DECO, but the size will increase to 6.3 inches, the same size as the current 16 Pro.
The processor and memory have not changed, and it is still a combination of A18 + 8GB, while the iPhone 17 Pro series will be upgraded to the latest A19 Pro chip and 12GB of memory. Even the new model of iPhone 17 Air has A19, so I can only say that the knife skills are still superb. . .
Other configurations, the iPhone 17 is expected to be upgraded to a 48-megapixel rear ultra-wide angle + 24-megapixel front camera, equipped with a self-developed Wi-Fi chip, and supports Wi-Fi 7. In terms of charging, MagSafe supports Qi2.2 standard, which can provide faster wireless charging speeds.
As for wired charging, it is expected to be 25W~30W. In short, the iPhone 17 is still not a major upgrade, and the biggest highlight is that it has a high refresh rate of 120Hz. Of course, this is also the biggest shortcoming of the current standard version. After filling in, it is estimated that some users can also change it.
If the pricing remains unchanged this year, the iPhone 17 will start from 5,999 yuan.
Now the iPhone 16 Pro has also dropped to 5,999 yuan, and you can get it by using the national subsidy of 5,499 yuan. In terms of configuration, it has an adaptive refresh rate of 1~120Hz, a stronger A18 Pro chip, a better textured titanium body, and a 5X telephoto lens.
The question is here, which one would you choose?
