Expert opinion
Is it worth upgrading to the iPhone 17?
The most exciting change is the introduction of the new “iPhone Air” model, which enjoys an ultra-light build and is designed to be the thinnest smartphone on the market.
All iPhone 17 models now feature a 120Hz ProMotion display, which was previously reserved for the Pro models, and makes everything from scrolling through social media to playing games feel incredibly smooth and responsive.
The new 18MP Centre Stage front camera is another major selling point. It’s a huge step up from the previous cameras, offering sharper selfies and better video call quality. It can even automatically adjust the frame to keep you perfectly centred.
The upgrades are significant for older iPhone owners, but while the iPhone 17 offers a lot, the decision is a bit tougher if you already own an iPhone 16.
On balance, if you’re a photography enthusiast, a gamer, or someone who values the absolute latest technology and design, the new features - like the ultra-thin iPhone Air model or the enhanced cameras on the Pro models - an upgrade to the iPhone 17 may be worthwhile.
Ultimately, whether the upgrade is “worth it” depends on your personal needs and budget. However, with upgraded displays, tougher screens and a host of other improvements across the entire lineup, the iPhone 17 represents a more worthwhile upgrade than in past years.
