This is why the iPhone 17 Pro (Max) is the best phone of the moment (ADV)

The new iPhones are finally there! Four new devices have been announced, the very best of which is the iPhone 17 Pro (Max). We show you why.

iPhone 17 Pro (Max): Best phone of 2025

An Apple event was planned on 9 September and, like every year, new iPhones were presented, among other things. Just like last year, there are four new devices, but the Plus model has had to make way for something new: the iPhone Air. This is the thinnest iPhone ever and is only 5.6 millimeters thick.

Furthermore, the iPhone 17 is the latest entry -level model and you get the iPhone 17 Pro advanced functions. The iPhone 17 Pro Max looks a lot like 17 Pro, but has a larger size and better battery. We show you why the iPhone 17 Pro (Max) is the best device of the moment.

3x 48 megapixel cameras and improved front camera

The largest upgrade that the iPhone 17 has undergone compared to the predecessors is in the camera. All three lenses that can be found on the back of the device now take photos with a maximum resolution of no less than 48 megapixels.

The main camera and ultra -wide angle lens of the iPhone 16 Pro could already do this, but now the telephoto lens also belongs in this list. Incidentally, it can now zoom in no less than eight times, where nothing of the quality is lost. In addition, the front camera has been tackled and the sensor has grown from 12 to 18 megapixels. This supports the center, with which the camera automatically places you in the middle and moves with you. This way you feed the perfect video calls or make the most beautiful selfies.

Battery that lasts up to 37 hours

A bit shifted on the inside, so that more space is created for the battery. It has been around for a long time, but with the iPhone 17 Pro you watch videos for until 31 hours. With the 17 Pro Max that is even no less than 37 hours.

Charging is also a bit faster than before. With only 20 minutes on the charger, he is already 50 percent full. If you have forgotten to charge your iPhone, you can still leave the house and just get through the day.

Powerful new chip

Furthermore, a new iPhone always includes a new processor. The A19 Pro chip can be found inside. This is made by Apple itself and is therefore fully optimized for all functions. New is the way the device is cooled. The heat is better drained, so that the performance remains more stable and the phone does not overheat quickly.

This means that the iPhone 17 Pro (Max) is the most powerful iPhone ever. Of course, all Apple Intelligence functions are also supported and tasks are performed at lightning speed.
