iPhone 17 leaks:?Apple fans, get ready ¡ª the iPhone 17 is already stirring excitement long before its official reveal. The tech world is abuzz with speculation and buzz building around a potential new colour option. Could Apple be reviving a fan-favourite shade from its past? This subtle change might hint at a deeper shift in the brand¡¯s design language as rumours gain momentum.?
Every year, Apple brings something fresh to the table, but nostalgia might steal the spotlight this time. Whether you¡¯re a die-hard iPhone enthusiast or just curious about what¡¯s next, this development is one you won¡¯t want to miss. Explore what¡¯s brewing behind the scenes and why it could be Apple¡¯s boldest aesthetic move yet.
Apple usually follows a consistent launch schedule, and the iPhone 17 base model is expected to be revealed between?September 11-13, 2025. Pre-orders could begin immediately after the official unveiling, and if Apple sticks to its traditional timeline, the iPhone 17 series may go on sale around?September 19, 2025.
According to a recently released photograph making the rounds on Weibo, a new colour named "Lilac" is being developed. However, according to Phone Arena sources, Apple might call it "Lavender." The minor naming difference may be simply a translation error, which happens frequently when using browser tools.?
The main conclusion, however, is that similar to the iPhone 16, Apple is planning to release a new shade of purple for the iPhone 17 series. If you've followed Apple's colour schemes throughout the years, you'll recall the iPhone 12's striking purple design and the iPhone 14's more muted version.?
Based on what we've observed, the lavender on the iPhone 17 appears to be in the middle, neither too deep nor too pale.The hitch is that the new colour may only be available on the entry-level iPhone 17 model. For Apple, that wouldn't be unusual.?
This is nothing new since other digital behemoths like Google and Samsung also reserve special colour selections for particular models. Currently, there is no indication that Lavender will be available on the iPhone 17 Plus, iPhone 17 Pro, or iPhone 17 Pro Max.?
Remember that this is still unofficial, as usual. Apple has confirmed none of this, and things may change before launch. The other models might also receive distinctive colours of their own.?
According to recent analyst estimates, many hardware modifications won't be made to the iPhone 17 base model beyond colour. According to Jeff Pu of GF Securities, the gadget is anticipated to feature the A18 chip, the same chipset as the iPhone 16. According to reports, the processor will still be constructed using TSMC's 3nm N3E technology.Like the iPhone 16, the iPhone 17 will probably include 8GB of RAM.?
A slightly larger 6.3-inch display (up from the existing 6.1-inch) with a refresh rate of 120 Hz could be one of the other updates. In contrast to the iPhone 16's 12MP front camera, the smartphone is expected to have a 24MP camera.?
The phone will probably run iOS 26, which was revealed earlier this month at WWDC 2025, the company's annual developer conference. According to rumours, the iPhone 17 series will include the iPhone 17, iPhone 17 Pro, and iPhone 17 Pro Max. According to reports, Apple will release a new iPhone model, most likely the iPhone 17 Air.?
Price increases may result from the anticipated significant improvements in the upcoming iPhone generation. But in recent years, Apple has mostly maintained its beginning costs at the same level. The iPhone 17 may go on sale in India at an estimated?Rs 79,900?based on this trend. However, a price increase is still possible, and this number is not official.?
