That is, of course, reserved by Apple for its new ranges of iPhones-the iPhone 17 series. But this time, the most contentious has been about the base version of iPhone 17: intended to be simple yet a bit limited in performance. And now, with even the latest report-some leaks-this this base iPhone 17 is going to prove to be as powerful as ever.
More Powerful Chipset-A18 Bionic
Usually, Apple uses outdated or unhappy prior generation chipsets inside its base models; as in the cases of the iPhone 15 and iPhone 15 Plus units, inside them has been built the A16 Bionic. However, the big change with this iPhone 17 is that it has been anticipated to be directly fitted with an A18 Bionic chip onto its base model, being seen as the mightiest chip ever made, not only for engaging in gaming or multitasking, but also for all AI-based processing.
Upgraded RAM and Performance of Apple iPhone 17
8 GB of RAM, instead of the normal 6 GB expected to be equipped, is what leaks say the base version of the iPhone 17 will probably have. Consequently, the speed of running, switching, and background applications will be at least twice as fast as previous usage speed. It is a huge improvement, particularly for heavy applications such as video editing and graphic design.
In addition, there are speculations on camera and display enhancements, one of which is in the base model of the iPhone 17 having a better 48MP primary camera, which would take much better pictures similar to those of the iPhone 14 Pro series. Not just that, but the display is said to be brighter, easy on the eye, with an improved refresh rate-free from ProMotion technology.
Change in Design and Battery
However, the design of the iPhone 17 base model would be slimmer, lighter, er and, as per reports, it may receive a finish in titanium just like that of the "iPhone 15 Pro." It is also said to be improved with battery performance to hold up better during a day of use.
In previous years, the average consumer viewed the base models of the iPhone as 'discretionary.' However, the base model iPhone 17, coming into the market in 2025, is set to change the game. Such a chip, advanced camera, smart design, and good battery would make this a 'smart investment' for Apple's fans.
