Rumors are swirling about the 2025 iPhone already. Here’s everything we’ve heard about the iPhone 17 range so far, including the rumored iPhone Air!
In just a couple of months, Apple will unveil the iPhone 17. But you don’t need to wait to find out what it’s all about. Rumors, leaks, and info started to circulate months before the iPhone 16 was even formally announced, and there isn’t much we don’t know by now. Here’s everything we know about Apple’s new iPhones so far—and be sure to check back until the big event in September.
Updated August 5: A report states that Apple could be having its fall iPhone event on September 9.iPhone 17 release date: When is the next iPhone coming out?
Here’s something we do know: The new iPhone lineup is almost always announced at an Apple Event in September—usually on a Tuesday in the second week of September, to be specific. So we would expect the iPhone 17 line to be announced on or around September 9, 2025. Here’s when the most recent models were released:
iPhone 15: September 12, 2023
iPhone 14: Sepember 7, 2022
iPhone 13: Sepember 14, 2021
iPhone 12: October 13, 2020 (delayed due to Covid)
Historically, preorders for the iPhone begin on the Friday after the announcement, and the phones ship a week later. On occasion, some specific models may ship a couple of weeks later than others due to production issues. So expect pre-orders around September 12 and on sale from September 19.

According to “internal information from German mobile phone providers” posted by iphone-ticker-de, Apple is reportedly gearing up to unveil the new iPhones at an event on Tuesday, September 9. iPhone 17: Price
We haven’t yet heard if the iPhone 17 line will cost the same as the iPhone 16 line. Most rumors suggest the “Plus” model will be replaced by the new super-slim “Air” model, which will take over its price in the lineup as well:
iPhone 17: 6.27-inch LTPO display, A19/8GB/128GB ($799)
iPhone 17 Air: 6.65-inch LTPO display, A19/8GB/128GB ($899)
iPhone 17 Pro: 6.27-inch LTPO display, A19 Pro/12GB/256GB ($1,099)
iPhone 17 Pro Max: 6.86-inch LTPO display, A19 Pro/12GB/256GB ($1,199)
This would mean a significant upward shift in overall iPhone pricing, with the Pro model jumping up $100 and a new model replacing the Plus with a price of $100 more than the Pro Max.
Now that Apple has introduced the iPhone 16e there may also be an iPhone 17e joining the lineup in September 2025, although we don’t know if it will be updated in September 2025, or if that model won’t arrive until spring 2026. The price is likely to be $599 for the iPhone 17e, unless Apple introduces an iPhone 17e in place of the iPhone 15, with a price of $699, in which case the iPhone 16e could remain in the lineup with its $599 price tag.iPhone 17: Colors

Several analysts have reported that the existing Plus model will be replaced by a new “Slim” model with a larger screen size and a much thinner body.
The much slimmer size will come at the expense of battery capacity, as there just isn’t room for a battery as thick as you find in other iPhones.
