Since October 2025, the Apple iPhone 17 series, which includes the stylish ultra-thin iPhone 17 Air with a concise design, the intelligent iPhone 17 Pro with enhanced AI capabilities, and the premium iPhone 17 Pro Max with an extended screen, has fully captured the minds and hearts of buyers in Thailand thanks to its competitive prices and high resale value.

Apple launched the sales of the series on September 19, 2025, equipped with the A19 Bionic chip for ultra-fast processing and cameras supporting 8K video, causing a sensation in the country’s tourist centers — from Bangkok with its flagship Apple Stores at Siam Paragon and CentralWorld to Pattaya and Phuket.
