Apple “Awe Dropping” Event Set for September 9
Apple is gearing up to unveil its new iPhone 17 series at the exciting “Awe Dropping” event on September 9, 2025, at 10:30 PM IST. Fans can catch the launch live on Apple.com, the Apple TV app, and YouTube, making it easy for everyone to watch from home.
Lineup and Expected Upgrades
This year, Apple plans to launch four new models: iPhone 17, iPhone 17 Air, iPhone 17 Pro, and iPhone 17 Pro Max. All are rumored to feature major upgrades, with the iPhone 17 Air possibly replacing the Plus model and boasting a super slim design. Updated cameras, display technology, and improved performance are expected, promising a noticeable leap over last year’s lineup.
Why Prices Are Going Up
Recent leaks suggest buyers will see a $50 price hike for the iPhone 17, iPhone 17 Pro, and Pro Max compared to last year. Rising component costs, new features, and tariffs have contributed to these increases, meaning customers will need to pay extra for the latest technology.
Expected Prices in India
- iPhone 17 (128GB): Around ₹84,990, up from ₹79,990 for the previous standard model.
- iPhone 17 Pro (256GB): About ₹1,24,990, reflecting a hike from last year’s ₹1,19,990 for the base Pro.
- iPhone 17 Pro Max: Estimated at ₹1,50,000, a jump over last year’s ₹1,44,990.
- The iPhone 17 Air is predicted to fall between standard and Pro price ranges, but its exact cost remains unconfirmed.
What Buyers Should Know
While the anticipation is high, these figures are based on leaks and not official announcements. For accurate pricing and pre-order details, it’s best to wait for Apple’s final word at the September 9 event.
