New leaks suggest Apple’s iPhone 17 series could see a slight price increase over last year’s models. At the same time, fresh images hint at a broader range of color choices across the lineup.
Possible Price Increase Across Models
According to leaker @Jukanlosreve, most iPhone 17 models are expected to cost about $50 more than their iPhone 16 counterparts. This adjustment is reportedly due to several factors, including tariff impacts, currency fluctuations, and Apple’s internal cost restructuring.
If accurate, here’s what the new starting prices could look like:
- iPhone 17: $850 / £850 / AU$1,475
- iPhone 17 Air: $949 / £949 / AU$1,674
- iPhone 17 Pro: $1,050 / £1,050 / AU$1,875
- iPhone 17 Pro Max: $1,250 / £1,250 / AU$2,225
The rumored increase lines up with a separate report from Jefferies analyst Edison Lee, who suggested that all models except the base iPhone 17 would see a price hike.
Color Leaks Reveal Expanded Palette
Alongside pricing rumors, new images shared by leaker Majin Bu reveal what may be the full set of colors for the iPhone 17 series. While some variations are still speculative, the leaks suggest Apple is expanding its color offerings this year.
Expected colors include:
- iPhone 17: Black, White, Pink, Blue, Green
- iPhone 17 Air: Black, White, Blue, Pale Yellow
- iPhone 17 Pro and Pro Max: Black, White, Blue, Gray, Brown
These options closely match earlier leaks, although shades like brown and green appear differently depending on the source—possibly indicating ongoing refinements in design or lighting in the renders.
Launch Timeline
Apple is expected to unveil the iPhone 17 series in early to mid-September, staying consistent with its usual release window. That puts the official reveal just a few weeks away.
Conclusion
While a $50 price bump may be on the horizon for most iPhone 17 models, Apple could offset some of the pushback by offering a wider variety of color choices and new features. More details are likely to surface as the launch date approaches.
