Apple’s much-anticipated Awe-Dropping Event is only hours away, and excitement is building as leaks reveal what might accompany the iPhone 17 launch date. The company is expected to unveil its latest lineup, including the iPhone 17, iPhone 17 Air, iPhone 17 Pro, and iPhone 17 Pro Max.
Alongside the phones, Apple could introduce redesigned cases, accessories, and even a new way to carry your iPhone.
Reportedly, the iPhone 17 Pro Max release date will be shared during the event, with prices said to be close to last year in the USA but possibly more for places like Pakistan.
iPhone 17 TechWoven and Liquid Silicon cases
According to a famous tipster Majin Bu, Apple will release TechWoven cases made from synthetic fabrics in a textured finish to replace the unfortunate FineWoven covers departed from the iPhone 15.
Tags are that they will also release Liquid Silicon cases, a vibrant and lower-cost tier to marry up with the Liquid Glass-themed iOS 26.
iPhone 17 clear case redesign and crossbody strap
The iPhone 17 Pro and Pro Max will also likely ship with clear case redesigns incorporating a white section to conceal the MagSafe magnets; rumours of tinted clear cases exist, but they may not be revealed at the Apple iPhone launch 2025 event.
For the first time, Apple could carry a crossbody strap; leaked images show a bright orange version to match the new colour.
Apple iPhone 17 Air
The iPhone 17 Air is shaping up to be Apple’s thinnest iPhone yet, featuring a titanium frame, extended battery life, and full eSIM support.
Early comparisons of iPhone 17 Air vs iPhone 17 Pro suggest the Air will focus on design and portability, while the Pro models target performance. The iPhone 17 Air thickness could be one of the biggest Apple event highlights tonight.
