Introduction and Features

Apple introduces the iPhone 17 Pro and its bigger sibling, the iPhone 17 Pro Max — the most powerful smartphones Apple has ever created. In fact, at the heart of this generation is a heat-forged aluminum unibody enclosure, crafted to maximize performance, battery life, and durability.

Revolutionary Design Features That Set iphone 17 pro max Apart

Unibody Enclosure

A single block of aluminum alloy forms the enclosure, making the iPhone remarkably lightweight yet strong. Moreover, the material’s exceptional thermal conductivity keeps performance high, even under heavy workloads.

Inside, a vapor chamber system uses deionized water to rapidly move heat away from the A19 Pro chip. As a result, it delivers higher sustained performance with greater efficiency.

Stronger Protection with Ceramic Shield 2

The back is protected by Ceramic Shield, making the iPhone 4× more resistant to cracks. In addition, the all-new Ceramic Shield 2 on the front offers 3× better scratch resistance for lasting durability.

Immersive Pro Display Experience

Choose from a 6.3-inch or 6.9-inch Super Retina XDR display — brighter than ever, with ProMotion up to 120Hz and advanced anti-reflective coating for stunning clarity in any light. Therefore, whether indoors or outdoors, your viewing experience stays flawless.

With Camera Control, you can instantly capture photos, record videos, and adjust settings on the fly. This means you’ll never miss a moment.
