iPhone 17 Pro (Apple)

The Apple iPhone 17 Pro is expected to launch globally in September 2025, with availability in Pakistan shortly after through imports and PTA approval. As with previous Pro models, Apple is focusing on performance efficiency, camera refinement, and long-term software stability, rather than dramatic visual changes.

At the core of the iPhone 17 Pro is the Apple A19 Pro chipset, expected to be built on an advanced 3-nanometer process. This chip is designed to deliver higher sustained performance while consuming less power, reinforcing Apple’s lead in real-world speed and efficiency. The phone will ship with iOS 19, bringing deeper on-device AI features, improved privacy controls, and long software support—typically 6 years or more for iPhones.

The display is expected to be a 6.3-inch LTPO Super Retina XDR OLED with 120Hz ProMotion, Dolby Vision, and excellent brightness for outdoor visibility. Apple’s Ceramic Shield glass continues to offer class-leading durability. The device is also expected to carry an IP68 rating, meaning it is dust-tight and water-resistant up to 6 meters for 30 minutes, a long-standing Apple standard for Pro models.

On the camera side, the iPhone 17 Pro is expected to feature a 48 MP main camera, supported by an ultra-wide lens and a 5× optical zoom tetraprism telephoto. Apple’s strength remains computational photography and video, with support for ProRAW images, ProRes video recording, and Dolby Vision HDR, making the device a strong choice for content creators and professional users.

In Pakistan, pricing will be premium. Based on PTA taxes, import costs, and historical Apple pricing trends, the expected PTA-approved price is:

• 256 GB: PKR 420,000 – 470,000
• 512 GB: PKR 480,000 – 520,000
• 1 TB: PKR 550,000+

Overall, the iPhone 17 Pro is positioned as a high-end flagship for users who value camera consistency, long-term performance, strong resale value, and deep ecosystem integration rather than experimental hardware features.
