Apple is all set to unveil its next big flagship lineup, the iPhone 17 series, comprising iPhone 17, iPhone 17 Air, iPhone 17 Pro and iPhone 17 Pro Max, at its “Awe Dropping” event on September 9, 2025. This year, the company is expected to bring some significant changes in the years to come. Leaks and rumours suggest that the upcoming lineup could get a design overhaul, an upgraded camera system, a powerful chipset and more. While these upgrades may sound impressive, they may also result in a price jump.
According to recent leaks, Apple is likely to increase the price of the upcoming iPhone 17 Pro by around a price bump of $100 (roughly Rs 8,800) compared to the iPhone 16 Pro. Here’s how much they may cost.
As per the tipster, the iPhone 17 Pro will come at a starting price of $1,099 (roughly Rs 97,000) in the US. However, the handset will get an upgraded baseline variant with 256GB storage. While it may look like a price hike, it actually isn’t, as the iPhone 16 Pro retails at the same $1,099 for the 256GB variant. However, its base variant starts at $999 for the 128GB model.
Meanwhile, some previous reports also claimed that Apple will increase the prices of the vanilla iPhone 17 by $50.

iPhone 17 Pro will run on the new A19 Pro chip paired with 12GB of RAM. That’s a big leap for power users, especially with Apple Intelligence features in the mix. It may also sport a vapour cooling chamber to keep things cool during heavy use. On the software side, it will ship with iOS 26 out of the box.
Furthermore, the leaks suggest a triple 48-megapixel setup, comprising a wide, ultrawide, and telephoto lens, alongside a 24-megapixel front camera, optimised for detailed selfies and sharp video calls.
