iPhone 17 Pro Hands-On: The Most Un-Jony Ive iPhones Apple Has Ever Made

gizmodo.com Raymond Wong 2025-10-08 00:34:03

I felt a sense of déjà vu as I picked up the iPhone 17 Pro and 17 Pro Max—in Cosmic Orange, of course—at the “Awe Dropping” Apple Event and tried to pin down what about these new Apple smartphones felt so familiar. Then it hit me as I left the Steve Jobs Theater in a tired daze last night: the iPhone 17 Pros remind me of the MacBook Pros with M1 Pro and M1 Max chips. Like those first “pro” MacBooks, the iPhone 17 Pros are actually built for pros. It’s not just “pro” for marketing. The iPhone 17

But something caught my ear in the middle of the iPhone Air announcement. Along with other connectivity support, Apple made sure to add that the iPhone Air would support Thread.

Center Stage is a better vision of the Apple Intelligence era

engadget.com Unknown 2025-10-08 04:04:28

Apple has offered a few different variations of Center Stage — its photo tracking and enhancement suit — over the years, but with the iPhone 17 line and iPhone Air the company has designed the feature to solve a small (albeit annoying) problem with modern smartphones. Now there's no need to change how you hold the device to shoot portrait- or landscape-oriented selfies. It's vintage Apple: a seemingly simply melding of hardware and software in a way few other companies excel at. The reason it c

iPhone 17 Pro vs. iPhone 14 Pro: Why I'm upgrading to this year's model after three years

Welcome to the era of thin smartphones (whether you want it or not)

We knew it was coming, and now it’s here. The iPhone Air, as rumored, is only 5.6mm thick and has fewer features than the base iPhone 17, which is $200 cheaper. Sure, it’s not the first slimline reinterpretation of a major smartphone — Samsung beat Apple to the punch with the Galaxy S25 Edge earlier this year — but the influence of Apple can’t be underestimated. It’s too early to tell if the iPhone Air will shake up smartphones as the MacBook Air did with laptops, but it’s definitely a safer evo

Apple’s iPhone, on the other hand, is made for the average consumer — the phones don’t usually pack the latest technology, but their undeniable popularity sets them as the standard against which top Android flagships are judged.

We’ve even seen this war extend to foldable phones in 2025. Apple claims the iPhone Air is just 5.6mm thin.
