Long queues to buy iPhone 17 series around the world

The sale of the iPhone 17 series has started in different countries around the world from September 19, and on this occasion, thousands of people were seen standing in queues in front of Apple stores in different cities.

From Singapore to London, hundreds of people were seen standing in queues everywhere, eager to be the first to buy this phone.

After being introduced on September 9, it was put on sale in most countries of the world on September 19 at 8:00am (local time).

In this sense, people in Australia and New Zealand got the first chance to buy this phone.

On this occasion, there was a lot of rush in front of Apple stores in these countries.

It is pertinent to note that Apple introduced the iPhone 17, iPhone 17 Air, iPhone 17 Pro, iPhone 17 Pro Max, Apple Watch 11 series, and Apple Watch Ultra 3.

This time, Apple has eliminated the iPhone Plus model and replaced it with the iPhone 17 Air.

Wireless MagSafe charging has been made a part of all phones, while battery life has also been improved.

The display of the standard iPhone 17 is slightly larger than before, 6.3 inches.

This is a Pro Motion display that has the Always-On feature, which was previously available only in Pro models.

The dual camera setup on the back of the phone consists of 48-megapixel and 12-megapixel cameras.

Ceramic Shield II protects the phone from scratches or falls, while the company has promised a full-day battery life.

Apple's new iPhone 17 Air is the thinnest phone in the company's history.

Its thickness is just 5.6 mm while it weighs 165 grams.

The thickness of the iPhone 16 is 7.8mm, so it can be estimated how thin the iPhone Air will be.

Its titanium aluminum frame is protected by Ceramic Shield II.

There is a single 48-megapixel camera on the back of the phone, while the device has an A19 Pro chip and 12 GB of RAM.

The iPhone 17 Pro and 17 Pro Max have three 48-megapixel cameras on the back that can record 8k video.

Both phones have a Wi-Fi 7 chip for fast internet.

Apple claims that the battery of both phones is very powerful and can play video continuously for 39 hours.

The price of the iPhone 17 will start at $799.

The iPhone 17 Air will start at $999, the iPhone 17 Pro at $1,099, and the iPhone 17 Pro Max at $1,199.
