The Next Big Apple Release: What Features Do Vietnamese Users Desire?

Apple’s upcoming iPhone 17, set to succeed the current iPhone 16, has been the subject of numerous leaks lately, revealing significant hardware upgrades. The leaks offer a glimpse into what we can expect from Apple’s upcoming iPhone 17, including a refined 120Hz OLED display and the latest iOS 26 operating system. With a potential release date in September, let’s delve into the expected specifications and features of the iPhone 17.

Following Apple’s traditional release schedule, we can anticipate the iPhone 17 to launch in September, with the iPhone 16 unveiled on September 9, 2024, and its predecessor, the iPhone 15, released on September 12, 2023. Apple is expected to unveil three additional models at the event, including the iPhone 17 Pro, iPhone 17 Pro Max, and the rumored iPhone 17 Air.

While the pricing of the iPhone 17 remains unknown, Apple has maintained consistent pricing for its iPhones over the years. Both the iPhone 16 and iPhone 15 were introduced at a starting price of $799 (approximately 20.8 million VND) for the base 128GB model. However, this year’s iPhone pricing may change due to potential tariffs imposed by US President Donald Trump on Apple for refusing to move production to the US instead of setting up a factory in India, coupled with increasing component production costs.

According to recent reports, the iPhone 17 is expected to offer a familiar design and similar performance to the iPhone 16, which was released in September 2024. It may feature a larger, faster 120Hz display and support faster charging. Read on to learn about the other anticipated specifications of the iPhone 17.

Leaked renders of the iPhone 17 suggest that Apple may not introduce significant design changes to the standard iPhone 17 model. While the iPhone 17 Pro and iPhone 17 Pro Max are rumored to feature a redesigned rear camera layout, the iPhone 17 is expected to closely resemble the iPhone 16, featuring a vertically stacked camera module with Camera Control and the Action button.

Apple is speculated to equip the iPhone 17 with a slightly larger display this year, featuring a 6.3-inch OLED screen similar to the iPhone 16 Pro. Additionally, the company is expected to upgrade the display from a 60Hz to a 120Hz panel, a feature commonly found in mid-range Android smartphones. However, it may not be the ProMotion display found on the company’s Pro models.

In terms of performance and the operating system, the iPhone 17 is likely to be powered by the A18 Bionic chip, similar to the iPhone 16, according to some reports, while others suggest it may feature the A19 chip. This processor is expected to be manufactured using TSMC’s current 3nm process technology. The iPhone 17 is expected to offer 8GB of RAM, like its predecessor, while the Pro models may feature 12GB of RAM. All four models in the iPhone 17 lineup are expected to run on iOS 26, which Apple announced at WWDC 2025.

Regarding camera specifications, the iPhone 17 is expected to feature a dual-camera setup on the rear, comprising a wide and ultra-wide camera. The iPhone 16 featured a 48-megapixel wide camera and a 12-megapixel ultra-wide camera, and Apple is not expected to introduce any significant upgrades in this department for the iPhone 17. Recent reports suggest that Apple will equip all iPhone 17 models with a 24-megapixel front-facing camera, an upgrade from the current 12-megapixel selfie camera.

Apple does not disclose the battery capacities of its smartphones, and it remains unclear if the standard iPhone 17 model will have the same battery capacity as the iPhone 16. Previous reports suggested that the iPhone 17 models would support 35W fast charging when paired with a compatible charger. Additionally, the devices are rumored to support Qi 2.2 wireless charging, but it is uncertain if they will support the newer, faster 50W wireless charging standard.
