iPhone 17 Pro and iPhone Air – both equipped with the enhanced A19 Pro chip — have begun to surface online. This might provide a clear insight into what to anticipate from the upcoming iPhones when they begin to reach consumers next week.
As is customary, real-world performance may differ from benchmark results. It’s also crucial to emphasize that these benchmarks are presently “unverified,” which indicates we cannot confirm that they originate from an iPhone 17 Pro or iPhone Air specifically. Nevertheless, potential purchasers might at least gain a clearer understanding of what to expect from Apple’s most powerful smartphones thus far.

Apple’s statements regarding the performance expectations for the iPhone 17 Pro and iPhone 17 Pro Max are not as explicit as they might be. In a press announcement outlining the new devices, Apple states: “A19 Pro allows iPhone 17 Pro and iPhone 17 Pro Max to achieve up to 40 percent better sustained performance than the previous model — perfect for gaming, video editing, and managing substantial local language models. The 6-core CPU is the quickest CPU found in any smartphone, and the 6-core GPU design features Neural Accelerators integrated into each GPU core, a larger cache, and increased memory compared to A18 Pro.”
