With the iPhone 17 Air, which has many of the Pro features that typically accompany the Pro model to differentiate it from the base model, in addition to the base model getting the marquee features of the Pro models such as the 120Hz/Always On Display, the Pro is very poorly differentiated unless you really make use of the three cameras.

And there's no black color.

I guess this time the pro really is for pros. The 120hz on the base model is great.

It’s a phone, who or what are those pros that use this in a pro way? And I’m saying this as a pro owner who only got it for the camera, which I use to take casual photos

videographers are the only pro market left.

obvious by the extra storage and additional camera features

The best camera is the one you have with you.
