The iPhone 17<\/a> price leaks have been ramping up as we get closer to the big Apple event<\/a> on September 9. Just last week, we heard that the only model getting a price hike is the iPhone 17 Pro<\/a>, which has been tipped to go up $100 alongside an increase to 256GB of storage.<\/p>\n

But a separate analyst report from TrendForce<\/a> (via MacRumors<\/a>) has revealed bad news about the possible iPhone 17 Air pricing. This is the rumored super-thin phone set to replace the iPhone 16 Plus<\/a>, which starts at $899. How does $200 more sound to you? It gets worse. This same firm predicts a whopping $200 price hike for the iPhone 17 Pro and a $100 bump for the iPhone 17 Pro Max.<\/p>\n

iPhone 17: Staying at $799<\/p>\n

According to the TrendForce report, the iPhone 17 will be staying put at $799 for 128GB of storage, making it by far the most affordable new iPhone. Jumping up to 256GB would cost you $899 and 512GB would command a premium of $1,099. That’s not bad for a phone that’s tipped to feature a 120Hz display (finally) a sharper 24MP front camera and a faster A19 chip.<\/p>\n

TrendForce predicts that Apple will charge $1,099 for the iPhone 17 Air<\/a>, which is expected to be just 5.5mm thin and sport a 6.6-inch OLED display. It’s also expected to pack Apple’s new A19 chip and start with 256GB of storage.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Not only would this be a huge jump up from the previous Plus line, it would also mean a $300 price gap between the regular iPhone 17 and the iPhone 17 Air. This could be a tough sell because while the iPhone 17 Air should have a larger display and sleeker design, it will likely feature just a single rear camera<\/a>, compared to two for the regular iPhone 17.<\/p>\n

The report says you would pay $1,299 for 512GB of storage and $1,499 for 1TB.<\/p>\n

Meanwhile, TrendForce tipped the iPhone 17 Pro<\/a> to start at a whopping $1,199, which would be a $200 price hike versus the iPhone 16 Pro<\/a>.<\/p>\n

I could see the iPhone 17 Pro going up by $100, given the possible 256GB of storage, as that’s worth $100 alone. But the extra $100 on top of that might be tough to swallow if Apple doesn’t offer a big leap in performance, camera quality and battery life. The 512GB version is said to cost $1,399 and 1TB $1,599.<\/p>\n

So far we’ve heard that the iPhone 17 Pro and Pro Max will get a sharper 48MP telephoto camera along with a faster A17 Pro chip. And you should enjoy better sustained performance \u2014 without overheating \u2014 due to a new vapor chamber<\/a> cooling system.<\/p>\n

The iPhone 17 Pro series is also rumored to offer a brighter display and the longest battery life to date, thanks in part to larger capacity batteries. The iPhone 17 Pro Max is tipped to finally get a battery over 5,000 mAh<\/a>.<\/p>\n

This report says that the iPhone 17 Pro Max<\/a> will start at $1,299 for 256GB, which would be $100 more than the iPhone 16 Pro Max. Opting for 512GB would bring the price to $1,499 and $1,699 for 1TB.<\/p>\n

The TrendForce iPhone 17 report makes some sense in terms of the spread of prices. You obviously couldn’t have the iPhone 17 Air cost more than a more powerful iPhone 17 Pro.<\/p>\n

But if this prediction is accurate, the iPhone 17 Air will have to blow people away during the launch event and in person to justify such a high $1,099 price. Granted, Apple is dealing with the tariff impact just like most electronics manufacturers. Just look at the recent PS5 price hike<\/a>.<\/p>\n

But if Apple is indeed raising the prices on 3 out of 4 iPhone 17 models, that risks becoming the lead story instead of what the new phones actually offer. For more, check out our iPhone 17 event live blog<\/a> for up-to-the-minute leaks and rumors.<\/p>\n
