Apple is gearing up for the launch of its iPhone 17 series, expected in September 2025. Among the models, the iPhone 17 Pro Max is likely to be the most expensive and feature-rich variant. According to recent leaks, the apple iphone 17 pro max price in India may reach around Rs 1,64,990.
This rumored pricing is a sharp increase compared to the iPhone 16 Pro Max, which launched at Rs 1,44,900. The nearly Rs 20,000 difference has surprised many Apple fans and market analysts. The apple iphone 17 pro max price hike is said to be due to factors like ongoing US trade tariffs and slower demand in certain global markets.
However, some reports suggest that Apple’s growing manufacturing presence in India may help ease this price hike slightly. The company is expanding its local production and exports, which might balance some of the rising costs.
The iPhone 17 Pro Max is expected to launch alongside the iPhone 17, iPhone 17 Air, and iPhone 17 Pro. The official unveiling will likely take place in the second week of September, continuing Apple’s annual launch tradition.
Key Features of iPhone 17 Pro Max (Leaked)
The iPhone 17 Pro Max may come with several major upgrades. It is expected to have a 6.9-inch SuperRetina XDR display with ProMotion technology, offering smoother visuals.
The new camera setup could include three 48MP lenses — wide, ultrawide, and a new telephoto lens with 5x optical zoom. This would allow users to record high-quality 8K videos, a first for iPhones and a feature already seen in top Android phones.
Under the hood, the phone may be powered by a new 3nm A19 Pro chip, paired with up to 12GB of RAM. These improvements aim to support iOS 26 and its advanced AI features, referred to as Apple Intelligence.
