At precisely 8:00 AM on September 19th, the iPhone 17 and iPhone Air lineup officially reached Vietnamese users. This marks a significant milestone, elevating Vietnam to Tier 1 status—a market prioritized by Apple.
This year, the iPhone 17 Pro in Vietnam features the ZP/A code instead of the usual VN/A. The packaging includes comprehensive information in Vietnamese, Thai, and English. Apple maintains its signature paper seal and design: the top showcases the device’s rear and color, while the phone inside is positioned face down, revealing its back and a screen protector.
Inside the box, you’ll find a USB-C charging cable with a durable fabric wrap, a SIM eject tool, and a user manual in Vietnamese. Officially distributed units in Vietnam retain the physical SIM tray, unlike the eSIM-only models in the US. While the physical SIM version has a slightly smaller battery compared to the eSIM variant, it offers greater convenience and ease of use for local customers. Authorized products also ensure transparent origins and a 1-for-1 warranty at Apple-certified centers—a benefit hard to find with imported devices.
Apple has increased wired charging speeds to 40W, with a maximum of 60W, though no power adapter is included. The bundled fabric-wrapped cable is renowned for its durability across recent generations.
Now, let’s focus on the star of the show—the iPhone 17 Pro in Cosmic Orange with 1TB storage. This highly anticipated variant stands out with its bold color options: Cosmic Orange, Deep Blue, and Silver. Apple has introduced vibrant hues, a departure from the traditional muted tones.
The Cosmic Orange finish on the iPhone 17 Pro makes a striking first impression. It’s not a pale or pastel orange but a vibrant metallic shade exuding luxury and modernity. Under light, the matte aluminum frame paired with Ceramic Shield glass creates a mesmerizing reflective effect, shifting the orange tone from warm earth to bright radiance depending on the viewing angle.
Unlike the neutral tones of previous Pro models, Cosmic Orange is designed to be bold, youthful, and instantly recognizable. In indoor lighting, it exudes a warm orange glow, while under bright light, it shines with a metallic luster. The matte finish prevents excessive glare, maintaining elegance and premium appeal while minimizing fingerprints.
Overall, this color is a groundbreaking addition to the iPhone Pro lineup—distinctive enough to stand out yet refined to complement Apple’s premium design language.
Design-wise, the front remains largely unchanged, featuring a 6.4-inch Liquid Retina XDR display with ProMotion 120Hz. However, peak brightness has been boosted from 2,000 nits to 3,000 nits, and an anti-reflective coating significantly enhances outdoor visibility.
A notable change is the return to an aluminum frame after two years of titanium. The curved aluminum edges with a subtle matte finish offer a more comfortable grip and improved heat dissipation. This year also marks Apple’s introduction of vapor chamber cooling for sustained performance.
The camera system retains its triple-lens setup (standard, ultra-wide, and telephoto) with a depth sensor and LED flash, but the design now spans the width of the device instead of the previous square layout. The raised bezel is crafted from rounded aluminum instead of plastic. While many Chinese smartphones boast 4-5 lenses, Apple sticks to three, prioritizing image processing prowess.
Viewed from the side, the iPhone 17 Pro appears curvier, with a matte finish that resists fingerprints. The buttons remain consistent with the iPhone 16 Pro: power, volume, and Camera Button.
Battery-wise, the iPhone 17 Pro Max boasts a 4,252 mAh capacity, a nearly 19% increase over the iPhone 16 Pro. The physical SIM version in Vietnam offers 3,988 mAh. This marks Apple’s first differentiation in battery size between models, made possible by removing the SIM slot to optimize space.
All iPhone 17 models come pre-installed with iOS 26.
The iPhone 17 Pro starts at 35 million VND in Vietnam, slightly higher than last year, yet demand remains strong. The ability to purchase official units at launch, with full warranties and standard accessories, makes the Cosmic Orange iPhone 17 Pro a top choice for Vietnamese consumers.
