CUPERTINO (dpa-AFX) - Tech giant Apple Inc. (AAPL) on Tuesday launched its next-gen iPhone 17 Pro and iPhone 17 Pro Max, featuring a new redesigned body, powered by the latest A19 Pro processor, and sporting a more advanced camera system.
The company also unveiled the thinner iPhone Air and a low-cost iPhone 17.
The iPhone 17 Pro features a lightweight, aerospace-grade aluminum chassis with an Apple-designed vapor chamber for enhanced performance. The new design features a larger battery.

Built with a titanium frame and Ceramic Shield protection on both sides, the device runs on the A19 Pro. It sports a 6.5-inch Super Retina XDR display, a 48MP Fusion camera, and the same Center Stage front camera found in the Pro models.
The iPhone Air is available in space black, cloud white, light gold, and sky blue.
