Was iPhone 16 Born Old? Rumors About iPhone 17’s Super Display

While details are still scarce, rumor has it that Apple is working on a new look that’s thinner and lighter than previous models. And finally, even the base models will get a now indispensable feature.

## iPhone 17: A first look at the rumors

The iPhone 17 is still far from its official launch, but the tech world is already buzzing with rumors about next year’s Apple smartphone. It’s no coincidence that there’s a thirst for innovation: one of the harshest criticisms leveled at the company after the presentation of the iPhone 16 line was the lack of desire to innovate the hardware, which has now been incrementally improved year after year. As for the iPhone 17, it could bring with it a much-anticipated novelty: one of the most persistent rumors suggests that Apple is planning to equip even the base model with a 120 Hz display, a significant step forward from the 60 Hz of the current iPhone 16. The higher refresh rate would translate into a significantly improved user experience, with smoother images, more realistic animations, and an always-on screen even in standby.

Another leak that has caught the attention of enthusiasts concerns the design of the iPhone 17. Although details are still scarce, it is rumored that Apple is working on a new look, thinner and lighter than previous models. This could mean even thinner bezels, a less prominent camera module, and an even lighter feeling when holding the phone in your hand. As every year, the iPhone 17 is expected to be powered by a new processor, even more powerful and energy efficient than its predecessor. This next-generation chip would allow it to effortlessly handle artificial intelligence applications, which should also be available in Italian next year.
