Apple iPhone 17e / Apple iPhone 17 Pro

The model number can differ by sales region.

Usable space is lower than the label because the OS and apps take room. There is no memory card slot.

Measured as a rectangle the screen is 6.06 inches; the rounded corners make the viewable area smaller.

ProMotion raises the refresh rate to 120 Hz for scrolling and games and lowers it for static content to save power, which lets the Always-On lock screen stay lit at a very low rate. Measured as a standard rectangle the diagonal is 6.27 inches.

The 1,200-nit figure applies only to HDR content as a short peak.

Apple claims 3x better scratch resistance than the previous generation and improved anti-reflection.

The A19 in the iPhone 17 has a 5-core GPU; the 17e version has 4 GPU cores.

There is a single rear camera. The 2x option uses the centre of the 48 MP sensor rather than a separate telephoto lens; there is no ultrawide camera.

4K 120 fps ProRes records only to external storage over USB-C. Apple Log 2 and ProRes RAW leave room for colour grading; Genlock keeps several cameras in sync.

The square sensor allows landscape group selfies while holding the phone upright; Dual Capture records front and rear cameras at once, up to 4K 30 fps.

Apple does not list the battery capacity in mAh; the times are from Apple's tests and vary with use.

No adapter is included; the box contains a 1 m USB-C cable.

Fast charging needs a high-wattage USB Power Delivery adapter; a 20 W adapter charges more slowly.

15 W MagSafe needs a 20 W or higher adapter. The iPhone 16e supported only 7.5 W Qi.

25 W needs the new MagSafe Charger or a Qi2 25 W-capable charger; older Qi chargers run at lower power.

USB 2 speed makes wired transfers of large 4K videos to a computer slow.

Apple says the C1X is up to 2x faster than the C1 in the iPhone 16e.

Thread builds a low-power mesh with smart-home devices; Ultra Wideband finds AirTags and compatible devices with direction and distance. Wi-Fi 7 needs a compatible router.

The SIM layout can vary by country.

The resistance is not permanent and can decrease with normal wear; liquid damage is not covered by the warranty.

Requires mobile data or Wi-Fi calling.

3,000 nits is a short peak reached in sunlight under auto-brightness, not sustained full-screen brightness. The 1-nit floor helps reading in the dark without glare.

Apple says Ceramic Shield 2 resists scratches 3x better than the previous generation, and the back resists cracks 4x better than the previous back glass. The anti-reflective coating is meant to keep the screen readable in bright light.

The vapor chamber spreads A19 Pro heat into the chassis; Apple claims up to 40% better sustained performance than the previous generation. Aluminium conducts heat better than the titanium frame of earlier Pro models.

Neural Accelerators in the GPU cores speed up on-device AI work; hardware ray tracing computes realistic lighting and reflections in games.

The 2× view is not a separate lens; it uses the centre of the 48MP sensor for a 12MP image. Default photos are 24MP.

Macro shots use the Ultra Wide camera; the phone can switch automatically when you get close to a subject.

8× (200 mm) is a crop from the centre of the 4× telephoto sensor, which Apple calls optical-quality zoom. The telephoto sensor is 56% larger than the previous generation's.

These figures are for the nano-SIM + eSIM model (A3523/A3526). Apple says eSIM-only models last longer because they fit a bigger battery.

10 Gb/s needs a USB 3 cable; the cable in the box is a charging cable. Video can go to a monitor or TV over a suitable USB-C cable.

This model has a physical SIM tray; models sold in some countries are eSIM-only. eSIM needs carrier support.

Dual-frequency GPS reduces location drift among tall buildings. Satellite features vary by country; Apple offers them free for two years after activation.

Testing is done in lab conditions; resistance may decline over time and liquid damage is not covered by warranty.

Camera Control is a touch-sensitive side button that opens the camera and lets you slide to adjust zoom and exposure. LiDAR helps autofocus in the dark and portrait depth.

Outside this range the phone may pause charging or dim the display.
