Although the iPhone 16 series is yet to arrive in September 2024, we already have an idea of iPhone 17 expected features and leaks. Well, that's the ever-growing craze surrounding iPhones! If you're planning to save for an iPhone 16 or iPhone 16 Pro, I guess you should take a little more time. I've rounded up 5 exciting iPhone 17 leaks that will make you skip the iPhone 16, or at least reconsider your excitement. So, before you decide and come to any decision, check out what is tipped for the iPhone 17 series, which is likely to arrive in September 2025.

If you are planning to buy an iPhone 16 or iPhone 16 Plus model, this may break your heart. Apple has been unforgivably slow when it comes to upgrading hardware on its iPhones. Plus, when it launches something exciting, these fancy upgrades are exclusive to the top-of-the-line Pro models. This year, Apple is likely to continue the "60Hz display" trend with the iPhone 16 series. Starting with the iPhone 6 models launched back in 2014, Apple hasn't moved on from 60Hz displays. Even 10 years later, Apple isn't ready to make a transition across its entire lineup. I neither can nor want to understand Apple's fascination with ancient 60Hz displays.

Apple introduced the LTPO technology on the iPhone 13 Pro models to enable the ProMotion feature. Then it enabled a lower refresh rate to introduce Always-on displays on the iPhone 14 Pro models. The Pro models got a nice, much-needed upgrade, with the standard models still crying in the corner. This year, Apple will launch the iPhone 16 and 16 Plus only with the outdated 60Hz screens. So if you're planning to buy one, we might want to reconsider and wait a year or go for the flagship iPhone 16 Pro models.

Interestingly, with the iPhone 17 series, Apple is rumored to bring 120Hz ProMotion Always-on Display technology across its entire iPhone lineup. Yes, the long wait is finally coming to a nice end. According to the latest reports, the iPhone 17 and iPhone 17 Plus will boast OLED displays with LTPO technology, marking the arrival of ProMotion displays on the vanilla iPhone models.
