iPhone 17 screen size accidentally revealed by popular case maker: Report
iPhone 17 series is expected to launch in September. As such, the vanilla model is not expected to feature a major redesign or overhaul, but one area where multiple reports have stated it could see an improvement is the display. Many reports have suggested that the phone could support a slightly larger panel, coming in at 6.3 inches, and also get 120 Hz refresh rate support, which would bring it in line with the iPhone Pro models, like the iPhone 16 Pro. iPhone 17 is expected to launch in September.(Majin Bu)
This seems to have been backed by another source now, which comes from the case maker Spigen, who may have accidentally spoiled the display specifications for the iPhone 17, as spotted by GSM Arena on Amazon India.
MOBILE FINDER: iPhone 16 LATEST Price iPhone 17 Screen Protector Listed On Amazon India
GSM Arena spotted an iPhone 16 Pro screen protector listing (now corrected) which suggested that the same screen guard would be compatible with the iPhone 17.
The specific product in question said that it is a two-pack and would fit the iPhone 17 Pro, the iPhone 17, and the iPhone 16 Pro. This leak suggests that the iPhone 17, as well as the iPhone 17 Pro, could share the same 6.3-inch measurement.
This, of course, does not mean that they would be the same panels, as the Pro could get a superior panel and support ProMotion tech. Unlike the vanilla model, which many reports have suggested could offer 120 Hz refresh rate support but miss out on LTPO tech and, ultimately, the ProMotion badging. How Big Of A Difference Would It Be Compared To The iPhone 16 Series?
The iPhone 16 series vanilla models are the iPhone 16 and the iPhone 16 Plus. The iPhone 16 comes with a 6.1-inch, 60 Hz OLED panel, while the iPhone 16 Plus has a 6.7-inch panel, also clocked at 60 Hz. So, if the iPhone 17 vanilla model comes in at 6.3 inches and 120 Hz, it would make for a much bigger and smoother panel compared to the iPhone 16, matching the Pro models.
It must be noted that if you wanted a Plus model with the iPhone 17 series, that may not come to be, because Apple has been consistently rumoured this year to be ending the Plus series in favour of the iPhone 17 Air, which could replace it. All in all, you could be set for a major gain in terms of both size and display refresh rate.

iPhone 17 Pro dummy leak hints at bold camera redesign, 12GB RAM and A19 Pro Chip
Fresh leaks surrounding the upcoming iPhone 17 Pro have set social media abuzz, revealing a bold redesign of its rear camera system and significant internal upgrades. A dummy unit of the highly anticipated device has surfaced online, giving enthusiasts a glimpse into what Apple may have in store for its 2025 flagship. Popular tipster Majin Bu posted images of the iPhone 17 Pro dummy on X (formerly Twitter), showing a revamped rear layout. The device still features a triple-camera setup, similar to last year's iPhone 16 Pro and Pro Max. However, all three sensors are now housed in a larger, horizontal strip. An LED flash is positioned in the top-right corner, and a LiDAR scanner—now accompanied by its own LED—also appears in the module. The iPhone 17 Pro is expected to include substantial performance enhancements, including up to 12GB of RAM across all models—Apple's biggest RAM upgrade yet. Rumors suggest the phone will be powered by the Apple A19 Pro Bionic chip, and come equipped with two 48MP cameras and one 12MP sensor on the back. Battery life improvements and support for faster wired and wireless charging are also anticipated—features that users have long requested. Adding to the hype, a user claimed to have spotted the iPhone 17 Pro in the hands of a fellow passenger during a test flight to Bangladesh, though the authenticity of that sighting remains unverified. As Apple enthusiasts eagerly await the official launch, these leaks offer the clearest look yet at what could be a significant leap in design and performance for the iPhone lineup.

Facing DC fast charging issue on your MG Windsor EV? A fix is on its way
The Windsor Pro was recently launched by JSW MG Motor India. There are three new colour schemes on offer now. Check Offers MG Windsor EV has been topping the sales charts for electric vehicle for several months now. It has helped JSW MG Motor India gain significant market share in the EV sector. However, there are have been several instances where customers have faced issues with DC fast charging. This is a huge issue considering the fact that a customer can be left stranded somewhere. Now, the company has issued an update for the customers. It is related to the Battery Management System and the high-voltage battery. Customers would need to visit their nearest authorised service centre to get this update installed which could take between 30 minutes to 1 hour. In theory, this update should fix the DC fast charging issues that the Windsor EV is facing. However, we will have to wait for some time to confirm whether this fix has worked or not. MG Windsor EV The Windsor EV has a rather unusual face that may not instantly impress an onlooker. But the rounded contours here are tastefully glazed with LED elements and a tad of chrome at the very bottom. Even after the price hike, the Windsor EV continues to offer a tremendous amount of value for money. However, people have experienced severe range drop in scorching summers. Apart from this, there have been instances, where the plastic piece where the seat adjustment buttons are placed broke. There is a lack of clarity with the 360-degree parking camera and the infotainment system itself can be a bit slow at sometimes. However, the guidelines on offer are very precise. When the Pro variant of the Windsor EV was launched, the existing customers wanted to know whether they would get the upgraded battery pack or not. To this, the company replied that the new, larger battery pack cannot be fitted to the current Windsor because the mounting points are different. However, an option like this would have been nice at an additional cost. Also Read : MG Windsor Pro: Owner of Windsor EV reviews the upgraded model The Windsor EV is powered by a front wheel drive motor that puts out 134 bhp of max power and 200 Nm of peak torque, which is delivered immediately. The performance is immediate, and there are driving modes on offer as well along with regen modes. And there is a proper difference between all the driving and regen modes. Because the Windsor EV is based on an electric platform, it is spacious. There is ample amount of room for everybody and it can seat five persons at once quite easily. However, the rear suspension is on the stiffer side so which you will need to slow down on speed breakers and bumps, or it will send a jolt. However, the ride quality does improve when there is a load in the boot or there are passengers in the rear seat. This firmness is what provides Windsor EV a lot of stability and confidence out on the highways. Check out Upcoming EV Cars in India. First Published Date: 28 Jun 2025, 13:50 PM IST

Samsung Galaxy S26 series may outpace iPhone 17 with higher RAM offering: Report
Samsung's upcoming Galaxy S26 series, expected to debut soon, could feature a substantial upgrade in memory, according to a new leak. The flagship smartphone lineup, expectedly comprising the standard Galaxy S26, Galaxy S26+, and Galaxy S26 Ultra, may come equipped with up to 16GB of RAM, a notable increase over their predecessors. Leaked information shared by tipster Jukan Choi (@Jukanlosreve), referencing data from Macquarie Research, suggests that Samsung plans to offer 16GB RAM variants of all three Galaxy S26 models globally. This could be a considerable jump from the current Galaxy S25 series, where only the Galaxy S25 Ultra comes with 16GB RAM, and that too only in select regions such as South Korea and China. The base Galaxy S25 and Galaxy S25+ models are presently limited to 12GB RAM configurations. The reported memory enhancement appears aimed at supporting Samsung's expanding suite of Galaxy AI tools, which are expected to play a major role in the S26 series. Increased RAM could also improve multitasking, gaming, and overall system performance, positioning Samsung's next-gen flagships more competitively against rivals, particularly Chinese brands like OnePlus and Red Magic, which already offer smartphones with up to 24GB of RAM. The leak also sheds light on Apple's future plans. The iPhone 17 series, likely to launch in September, could introduce a 12GB RAM option across its lineup, including the iPhone 17, iPhone 17 Air, iPhone 17 Pro, and iPhone 17 Pro Max. This would mark a step up from the 8GB RAM currently found in the iPhone 16 range. However, Apple's iPhone 18 series, tipped for release next year, is expected to maintain the same 12GB RAM configuration. As competition intensifies in the premium smartphone segment, memory upgrades are becoming increasingly crucial to support new AI-powered experiences and demanding user tasks. If the leak holds true, Samsung's Galaxy S26 series could gain a notable edge by offering higher memory across its entire lineup.
