New Delhi: According to insider reports and updates from tipsters, iPhone 17 which is scheduled to be launched next year will have the required 120 Hz refresh rate even at entry-level phones. The proposed change comes as a huge relief to iPhone users who have been primarily interested in the ‘Non-pro’ variants.

Earlier, Apple launched its brand-new iPhone 16 which came retrofitted with the hyped-up ‘Apple Intelligence’. Now, according to Ross Young, the CEO of Display Supply Chain Consultants, the base iPhone 17 models are most likely to gain a 120Hz LTPO panel modelled on the Pro variants. Furthermore, it is speculated that the new LTPO panels on the iPhone 17 will be manufactured by BOE which is a Chinese manufacturing company.
The new Siri with Apple Intelligence could launch as early as January with iOS 18.3
The full experience won’t be ready until iOS 18.4 in March
