iPhone 17 Leaks: Although the iPhone 17 series is still months away, rumours are already circulating about its features, sparking significant excitement. While much of the buzz centres on the potential iPhone SE 4 — rumoured to come with AI capabilities and premium features at a competitive price—the iPhone 17 series is also poised to make headlines for its upgrades.

ProMotion On All Models

For years, standard iPhone models have lacked a high-refresh-rate display, but 2025 may mark a turning point for Apple. Media reports suggest that the iPhone 17, along with its Plus and Slim variants, will finally feature 120Hz ProMotion displays.

This means that even the base models could offer a display on par with the Pro versions, thanks to an LTPO OLED panel — offering smoother visuals without the high cost typically associated with Apple’s premium offerings.

The ProMotion display was first introduced on the iPhone 13 Pro and was expected to be part of the iPhone 16 series. However, that did not come to fruition. Now, the 2025 models are expected to make this long-awaited upgrade to all variants a reality.

While high refresh-rate screens have been a staple in Android smartphones for years, often appearing on budget devices, Apple’s delay in adopting the technology has been notable. The iPhone 17 series could mark the end of that gap, bringing this feature to the masses.
