In one of the most anticipated tech reveals of the year, Apple officially announced the full iPhone 17 range at its annual September event. It showed off its new-look iPhone 17 Pro alongside the debut of the slimline iPhone Air as part of the popular brand’s handset refresh.
This year’s range sports upgraded cameras, more powerful internals, and — for the first time on a base model — a 120Hz display on the iPhone 17. Prices haven’t changed too much, but for anyone keen to upgrade, it’s worth shopping around to save some money.
Here’s where you can find some good deals in Australia, ready for the iPhone 17 launch.

iPhone 17, iPhone Air, and 17 Pro price and release date
You’ll notice a slight difference in the iPhone storage variants this year. Apple now starts the iPhone 17 with 256GB of storage, while keeping it at the same price as the 128GB iPhone 16.
Compared to last year’s iPhone 16 Pro range, the iPhone 17 Pro and Pro Max are as much as $150 more expensive, depending on the storage configuration.
Pre-orders for the entire iPhone 17 and iPhone Air range start at 10:00 PM AEST on 12 September 2025. After that, it’s only a week until the phones launch, arriving in Australia on 19 September.

iPhone 17, iPhone 17 Pro, and iPhone Air deals
Telstra
Telstra will share its iPhone 17 deals closer to pre-orders opening on Friday night. Keep checking in for any updates between now and then.
Optus
Like Telstra, we’re currently waiting for Optus to reveal its iPhone 17 pre-order and launch deals, so check back soon for an update.
Here’s a look at the telco’s current postpaid plans, which will likely be used as a bundle with Apple’s new phones.
Vodafone
Vodafone was the first local telco to announce its iPhone 17 deals, which include up to $1,400 of credit when ordering one of the new phones.
It starts with $200 of bonus trade-in credit when trading an eligible phone towards any of the new iPhone models. That’s on top of any existing trade-in value your phone already has.
Vodafone’s other main offer is $1,200 of credit when signing up to the telco’s $79 Extra Large Plan alongside buying the new iPhone. The credit is applied in the form of a $33.34 monthly discount over 36 months, so it requires a long-term commitment.
Separate from Vodafone’s Extra Large Plan promo, it’s also offering discounts across various other postpaid plans. When buying one of the new iPhones, you can get a discount on the first 12 months on either the Small, Medium or Large plans.
It works out to be an $8 monthly discount for the Small plan, $13 for Medium, and $18 for Large. Vodafone’s terms and conditions mention that the bonus trade-in credit stacks with either the Extra Large offer or the monthly discount offers.
Apple store
Apple isn’t the sort to offer a launch discount, so trading your old iPhone is the main appeal of going directly to the Apple Store.
If you’re keen to upgrade to one of the iPhone 17 models, you can get up to $1,205 in credit when trading in another iPhone. That maximum value applies to a 1TB iPhone 16 Pro Max in good condition.
Apple publishes the current trade-in value of older iPhones online, including up to $80 for an iPhone 8 from 2017.
Additionally, Apple has a carrier deal with Vodafone that offers $1,599 off “any iPhone” when you connect to a $79 Vodafone plan over 36 months, or $1,399 off on a $69 plan.
JB Hi-Fi, Officeworks, and Harvey Norman
Australia’s major retailers haven’t detailed their iPhone 17 deals yet. Many of the usual suspects, like JB Hi-Fi, Officeworks, and Harvey Norman, have online listings ready to go when pre-orders kick off.
Once the pre-orders lift, we’ll have a clearer idea of where the big retailers sit. Here’s where you can find their online listings in the meantime:
