See the latest En­viron­men­tal Progress Report to understand Apple’s recent efforts in phasing out these chemistries.

*To identify your iPhone model number, see support.apple.com/en-gb/HT3939. For details on 5G and LTE support, contact your provider and see apple.com/uk/iphone/cellular. Mobile data technology support is based on iPhone model number and configuration for GSM networks.

  1. Available space is less and varies due to many factors. A standard configuration uses approximately 12GB to 24GB of space, including iOS 26 with its latest features and Apple apps that can be deleted. Apple Intelligence on‑device models use approximately 7GB of space and can be deleted if Apple Intelligence is turned off. Turning on Apple Intelligence will download the models again. Apple apps that can be deleted use about 4.5GB of space, and you can re‑download them from the App Store. Storage capacity subject to change based on software version, settings and iPhone model.

  2. Size and weight vary by configuration and manufacturing process.

  3. iPhone 17 Pro and iPhone 17 Pro Max are splash, water and dust resistant and were tested under controlled laboratory conditions with a rating of IP68 under IEC standard 60529 (maximum depth of 6 metres up to 30 minutes). Splash, water and dust resistance are not permanent conditions. Resistance might decrease as a result of normal wear. Do not attempt to charge a wet iPhone; refer to the user guide for cleaning and drying instructions. Liquid damage not covered under warranty.

  4. Apple Intelligence is available in beta. Some features may not be available in all regions or languages. For feature and language availability and system requirements, see support.apple.com/en-gb/121115.

  5. Enabled by compatible apps.

  6. Enabled by compatible third-party hardware and software.

  7. All battery claims depend on network configuration and many other factors; actual results will vary. Battery has limited recharge cycles and may eventually need to be replaced. Battery life and charge cycles vary by use and settings. See apple.com/uk/batteries and apple.com/uk/iphone/battery.html for more information.

  8. MagSafe wireless charging up to 25W with 30W power adapter or higher. Testing conducted by Apple in July 2025 using pre‑production iPhone 17 Pro and iPhone 17 Pro Max units and software, USB‑C Charge Cable with Apple 40W Dynamic Power Adapter with 60W Max (Model A3351), and Apple MagSafe Chargers (1‑metre Model A3502 and 2‑metre Model A3503) with Apple 30W USB‑C Power Adapter (Model A2164) or Apple 40W Dynamic Power Adapter with 60W Max (Model A3351). Fast‑charge testing conducted with drained iPhone units. Times measured from the appearance of the Apple logo as the unit started up. Charge time varies with adapter, settings, usage and environmental factors; actual results will vary.

  9. Roadside Assistance and Emergency SOS via satellite are included free for two years with the activation of any iPhone 14 or later model. Connection and response times vary based on location, site conditions and other factors. See support.apple.com/en-gb/HT213885 for more information.

  10. iPhone 17 Pro and iPhone 17 Pro Max can detect a serious car crash and call for help. Requires a mobile data connection or Wi‑Fi calling.

  11. Data plan required. 5G, Gigabit LTE, VoLTE and Wi-Fi calling are available in selected markets and through selected network providers. Speeds are based on theoretical throughput and vary based on site conditions and network. For details on 5G and LTE support, contact your provider and see apple.com/uk/iphone/cellular.

  12. Wi‑Fi 7 available in countries and regions where supported.

  13. Ultra Wideband availability varies by region.

  14. Visual intelligence is available on any Apple Intelligence–enabled iPhone. Some capabilities may not be available in all languages and regions. For more details, see support.apple.com/en-gb/121115#visual-intelligence.

  15. USB 3 cable with 10Gb/s speed required.

  16. Use of eSIM requires a wireless service plan (which may include restrictions on switching service providers and roaming, even after contract expires). Not all network providers support eSIM. Use of eSIM in iPhone may be disabled when purchased from some providers. See your provider for details. To learn more, visit apple.com/uk/esim.

  17. Available only in selected cities and public transport systems. Requires eligible device and OS version. See here for details.

  18. FaceTime calling requires a FaceTime‑enabled device for the caller and recipient and a Wi‑Fi connection. Availability over a mobile network depends on provider policies; data charges may apply.

  19. Standard dynamic range video content only.

  20. Siri may not be available in all languages or in all areas, and features may vary by area. Internet access required. Mobile data charges may apply.

  21. Wireless broadband recommended; fees may apply.

  22. Data accurate as of product launch.

  23. Product recycled or renewable content is the mass of certified recycled material relative to the overall mass of the device, not including packaging or in-box accessories.

  24. We estimate the percentage of electricity-related emissions in our manufacturing that is sourced from low-carbon electricity by attributing to our carbon model low-carbon energy procured by our suppliers in the prior fiscal year, based on the supplier manufacturing allocations at time of product launch. This calculation assesses the suppliers for iPhone 17 Pro and iPhone 17 Pro Max. Included in this number is only low-carbon electricity that Apple or its suppliers have procured as part of Apple’s Supplier Clean Energy Programme.

  25. Efficiency performance is based on the US Department of Energy Federal Energy Conservation Standards for Battery Chargers.

  26. Based on retail packaging as shipped by Apple. Breakdown of US retail packaging by weight. Adhesives, inks and coatings are excluded from our calculations of plastic content and packaging weight.

  27. Based on the number of 10-unit boxes that fit onto a pallet compared with iPhone 16 Pro. The following locations have different savings based on various pallet configurations: Andorra, Canada, Cyprus, Greece, Italy, Portugal, South Korea, Spain, Switzerland, US.

  28. All established final assembly supplier sites — those that have been Apple suppliers for more than one year — for iPhone 17 and iPhone 17 Pro are third-party verified as Zero Waste by UL LLC (UL 2799 Standard). UL requires at least 90 per cent diversion through methods other than waste to energy to achieve Zero Waste to Landfill (Silver 90–94%, Gold 95–99% and Platinum 100%) designations.

  29. Apple’s Regulated Substances Specification describes Apple’s restrictions on the use of certain chemical substances in materials in Apple products, accessories, manufacturing processes, and packaging used for shipping products to Apple’s end customers. Restrictions are derived from international laws or directives, regulatory agencies, eco‑label requirements, environmental standards and Apple policies. Every Apple product is free of PVC and phthalates except for AC power leads in India, Thailand (for two‑pin AC power leads) and South Korea, where we continue to seek government approval for our PVC and phthalates replacement. Apple products comply with the European Union Directive 2011/65/EU and its amendments, including exemptions for the use of lead such as high‑temperature solder. Apple is working to phase out the use of these exempted substances for new products where technically possible.

Features are subject to change. Some features, applications and services may not be available in all regions or all languages and may require specific hardware and software. For more information, see Feature Availability.
