iPhone 17 series cases leak ahead of September 9 event
Apple has officially confirmed a launch event for September 9, where the company is expected to unveil the iPhone 17, iPhone 17 Air, iPhone 17 Pro, and iPhone 17 Pro Max. While we wait for the announcement, a tipster has shared new cases for the iPhone 17 lineup.
Prolific leaker Evan Blass has taken to X to share iPhone 17 cases from well-known brand Urban Armor Gear (UAG). The cases show the rear camera design for the iPhone 17 Air and the Pro models.
The iPhone 17 is expected to look very similar to the outgoing iPhone 16, whereas the 17 Pro and 17 Pro Max will get a redesigned rear camera module. The cases show the cutouts for the Action button as well as the Camera Control.
Meanwhile, the iPhone 17 Air case shows the device with a single rear camera and a pill-shaped module that reminds us of the Pixel phones. The handset will also have the Camera Control and Action Button.

iPhone 17 series battery capacity leaks ahead of launch
With just a day left for the iPhone 17 series launch, a new leak has surfaced online hinting at the battery capacities of the phone. It looks like all iPhone 17 models will be getting slightly larger batteries.
Prominent Apple tipster ShrimpApplePro has shared the battery capacities of the iPhone 17, iPhone 17 Air, iPhone 17 Pro, and iPhone 17 Pro Max.
The iPhone 17 will feature a 3,692mAh battery, while the iPhone 17 Air could come with a 3,036mAh cell. The iPhone 17 Pro is expected to pack a 3,988mAh unit, and the top-end 17 Pro Max may house a 4,832mAh battery.
Meanwhile, e-SIM only variants of the iPhone 17 Air, iPhone 17 Pro, and iPhone 17 Pro Max will offer larger batteries - 3,149 mAh, 4,252 mAh, and 5,088 mAh, respectively. Looks like Apple may be finally utilizing the extra space attained by getting rid of the SIM card tray.

iPhone 17 complete specs revealed by Korean carrier
Apple is all set to unveil its iPhone 17 series phones in a few hours but ahead of the big keynote, a leaked table with key specs for the four phones has emerged. The table, which comes from South Korea’s KT Telecom, shows the detailed specs for the iPhone 17, 17 Air, 17 Pro and 17 Pro Max alongside pricing for the local market.
The vanilla iPhone 17 will feature a 6.3-inch display, alongside the Apple A19 chipset, 8GB RAM and 128/256/512GB storage. The back will bring the same 48MP main camera and 12MP ultrawide shooters like last year’s iPhone 16. The battery is expected to grow to 3,600mAh. The base iPhone 17 will start at KRW 1,250,000 ($900) and will be offered in Black, White, Lime, and Red colors.
The all-new iPhone 17 Air will get most of the same specs as the base iPhone 17, including the A19 chipset, 8GB RAM and a single 48MP main cam, but it will offer a larger 6.6-inch display and a comically small 2,800mAh battery. iPhone 17 Air (128GB) is expected to start at KRW 1,400,000 ($1,000) and will be available in the same colors as the iPhone 17.
Moving on to the 17 Pro and 17 Pro Max, both phones will bring the updated A19 Pro chipset alongside 12GB RAM and up to 1TB storage. The base 17 Pro will bring a 6.3-inch screen, still start at 128GB storage, which was rumored to change to 256GB this year.
The 17 Pro Max will get a 6.9-inch panel and will start at 256GB of storage. Both will top out at 1TB and feature quad cameras, including triple 48MP cameras (main, ultrawide and telephoto) with up to 8K video recording.

That’s possible, but then again, Apple can be stubborn.
