Rumors surrounding the upcoming iPhone 17 and the ultra-thin iPhone 17 Air suggest they may feature ProMotion displays, a technology previously reserved for Apple’s Pro models. ProMotion, known for its adaptive 120Hz refresh rate, has been exclusive to the Pro lineup since its introduction with the iPhone 13 Pro series. Some reports indicate that Apple plans to extend this feature to its base iPhone 17 models, replacing the Plus model with the new iPhone 17 Air. However, recent claims suggest that these models might only have a standard 120Hz screen without the adaptive capabilities of ProMotion, potentially impacting battery life due to constant refresh rates. Despite this, there is strong speculation that Apple will adopt LTPO panels for the entire iPhone 17 lineup, which would support ProMotion displays across all models. This technology allows for variable refresh rates while conserving power. The debate continues as Apple prepares to unveil its new iPhone 17 series, expected around September.
