KUALA LUMPUR, Sept. 19 -- The TikTok algorithm tells me over and over again to get the iPhone 17 (if I'm buying) because it's good enough.

Sure, the iPhone 17 now shares the same display as the iPhone 17 Pro: Super Retina XDR with Apple's ProMotion tech (which gives you a 120hz refresh rate) as well as the same front camera.

There's also a decentish 2x optical zoom and a hefty 48MP ultrawide camera.

Storage also starts at 256GB this time (finally) so on paper the base model iPhone has never looked so good.

What is the pull, then, for the Pro and Air models?

I'd say they will appeal to the same crowd who get the Samsung Ultra and Fold models instead of the FE and Flips.

Sometimes, you just want more power.
