Apple’s iPhone 17 Pro Max is expected to include a 5,000mAh battery, making it the most powerful iPhone ever in terms of battery capacity.

The phone may come with big upgrades, including a new design, faster performance, and a better camera with a new telephoto sensor compared to the iPhone 16 Pro Max.

The Apple iPhone 17 series launch is anticipated for September 9, 2025, featuring four models: iPhone 17, iPhone 17 Air, iPhone 17 Pro, and iPhone 17 Pro Max. Both variants will likely include enhanced displays and advanced processors,

Apple usually sends out invites in late August, but history and habit suggest this year’s iPhone event will fall on September 9.

As is typical with the feature gap between standard and pro models, rumors suggest the iPhone 17 Pro and Pro Max (as well as the Air) will get the newest A19 chip, while the regular iPhone 17 will get the same A18 chip that powered last year's iPhone 16.

Most years, the flagship smartphones are introduced in September. MacRumors highlighted a story originally reported by iphone-ticker.de that the Apple iPhone 17 event could be Tuesday, September 9, according to information gleaned from German mobile phone providers.

Apple’s iPhone 17 lineup will offer four models, but one in particular could be a harder sell than usual: the new iPhone 17 Pro.

According to media reports, the iPhone 18 series could feature four models, including the iPhone 18 Air, iPhone 18 Pro, iPhone 18 Pro Max, and a foldable iPhone.
