iPhone 17, iPhone 17 Slim to Arrive With 120Hz LTPO OLED Displays: Report
DA Gadgets
Apple
launched
the
iPhone
16
series
of
smartphones
at
the
company’s
‘It’s
Glowtime’
hardware
launch
event
on
September
9.
While
handsets
just
went
on
sale
in
India
and
several
other
markets
on
Friday,
details
of
Apple’s
purported
iPhone
17
series,
which
is
expected
to
debut
in
the
second
half
of
2025,
have
already
surfaced
online.
In
line
with
previous
predictions,
a
market
analyst
says
that
Apple’s
next
generation
iPhone
models
will
support
a
display
feature
that
was
currently
limited
to
Pro
models.
In
a
now-deleted
post
on
X
(formerly
Twitter)
Display
Supply
Chain
Consultants’
Ross
Young
said
(via
GSMArena)
that
the
successors
to
the
iPhone
16
and
iPhone
16
Plus
—
expected
to
debut
as
the
iPhone
17
and
redesigned
iPhone
17
Slim
—
will
be
equipped
with
upgraded
displays
with
a
refresh
rate
that
ranges
between
1Hz
and
120Hz.
While
Apple
introduced
its
120Hz
ProMotion
on
its
smartphones
with
the
iPhone
13
Pro
and
iPhone
13
Pro
Max
in
2021,
the
company’s
recent
models
are
equipped
with
LTPO
AMOLED
screens
that
enable
functionality
like
the
always
on
display
feature
that
arrived
with
the
iPhone
14
Pro
and
newer
models.
If
Young’s
claim
is
accurate,
the
iPhone
17
and
the
iPhone
17
Slim
could
be
the
first
non-Pro
models
from
the
company
to
be
equipped
with
displays
that
have
a
high
refresh
rate.
Even
the
latest
iPhone
16
and
iPhone
16
Plus
feature
60Hz
displays,
while
several
cheaper
Android
smartphones
that
are
five
times
cheaper
than
the
base
iPhone
16
model
offer
a
higher
refresh
rate.
While
the
iPhone
16
lineup
offers
a
few
incremental
hardware
improvements
over
last
year’s
models,
the
purported
iPhone
17
Pro
models
are
expected
to
arrive
with
more
RAM
—
the
iPhone
17
Pro
Max
will
reportedly
be
equipped
with
12GB
of
RAM
and
a
vapour
chamber
cooling
system.
Both
the
Pro
models
could
also
feature
a
new
2nm
chipset
from
Apple,
built
by
Taiwan
Semiconductor
Manufacturing
Co
(TSMC)
next
year.
