At Tango, we are pleased to announce that the new iPhone 17 models will arrive in our stores and on our website in Luxembourg as soon as they are officially launched in September.
Four iPhone 17 Models, a New "Air", and Resized Displays
According to production documents, four models are set for launch:
- iPhone 17 (6.3-inch screen, same as the current iPhone 16 Pro)
- iPhone 17 Air (6.6-inch screen, new ultra-thin chassis)
- iPhone 17 Pro (6.3-inch screen)
- iPhone 17 Pro Max (6.9-inch screen)
The “Plus” model has been dropped, replaced by the new “Air” model. This version is expected to be one of the standout products in the lineup, with a thickness of just 5.5 mm and a brand-new price point, positioned between the standard iPhone 17 and the 17 Pro.
AI: What Will Actually Change in Daily Life
Internal leaks mention an AI integration currently referred to as Apple Intelligence Core. Key listed features include:
- Enhanced Photography: Automatic brightness optimization and real-time smart framing.
- Proactive Assistant: Siri may finally handle full action sequences (book a table, send invites, update your calendar).
- Smart Summarization: Automatic meeting summaries, including task extraction.
- Instant Translation: Seamless multilingual conversations directly within the Phone app.
- Contextual Suggestions: Automatic mode switching based on activity (work, travel, rest).
An engineer close to the project notes that these features would run locally on the A19 chip, ensuring both speed and privacy.
Should You Wait or Go for the iPhone 16?
On one hand, there’s the iPhone 17, expected to launch with major innovations and brand-new AI capabilities. On the other hand, the iPhone 16, which will become a more affordable option starting in September. The choice is between the latest tech… or a slightly better price.
All signs suggest that Fall 2025 will be unlike any other: Apple is preparing to turn a page and open a new era, where the iPhone will no longer be just a smartphone, but a true intelligent assistant.
FAQ: iPhone 16 and iPhone 17
Should I wait for the iPhone 17 or buy the iPhone 16 after its expected price drop?
The iPhone 17 will bring major innovations, especially in design and artificial intelligence. However, as with every new launch, Apple will officially reduce the price of the iPhone 16, making it a great value-for-money option. The choice depends on your profile: wait to get the latest features, or buy the 16 to benefit from a more accessible price.
What AI features will the iPhone 17 bring to everyday use?
The iPhone 17 is expected to integrate AI features that could change everyday usage: auto-corrected photos, a reimagined Siri capable of handling complex tasks, meeting transcriptions and summaries, instant translation, and personalized suggestions. The goal is to turn the iPhone into a smart and proactive assistant—more than just a phone.
What is the expected iPhone 17 timeline (announcement, pre-orders, availability)?
Apple’s keynote is expected on September 9, 2025. Pre-orders should open on September 12, with first deliveries starting a week later, on September 19. This schedule follows Apple’s usual launch tradition, though it has yet to be officially confirmed.
