Mini iPhone 17 Pro Max: The iPhone 17 series was launched in September 2025 and is still a hit. The top model of this series, iPhone 17 Pro Max (256GB) is priced at ₹149,900. But what if someone tells you that iPhone 17 Pro Max can be got for only ₹ 1,500, then what? You won’t believe it, and more importantly, you shouldn’t believe it.
Recently, a phone similar to the iPhone 17 Pro Max but smaller in size was spotted online, which is said to be Mini iPhone 17 Pro Max. Its price is said to be ₹ 1,500, but has Apple really launched such an iPhone? Let us know its truth.
What did you find in the phone box?
In fact, recently a famous tech YouTuber unboxed a phone that looked exactly like the iPhone 17 Pro Max. It was small in size. ‘Pro Max 17’ was also written on it. The box contained the phone, a lanyard, a USB cable, a clear cover and a user manual.
This phone is actually an Android phone.
When I held the phone in my hand, there were no visible flaws from outside. The glowing Apple logo on the back, three big cameras, the dynamic island-like design on the front and the speaker grill on top – everything is exactly like the original iPhone. The wallpaper of the phone is also the same as iPhone 17 Pro Max.
Going into “About phone” I found that the name had been changed to “17 Pro Max”, but it was actually an Android phone. This phone was not launched by Apple. It was also shown to have 512GB of storage, while the RAM was also shown to be 12GB. However, this was not true.
What’s in the camera of this phone?
The rear cameras of the phone are arranged exactly like the iPhone 17 Pro Max. The iPhone 17 Pro Max has three cameras, while this mini phone has only one, but the other two are designed with built-in cameras. Apart from this, the phone also has a selfie camera. However, as soon as I tried to do anything, the phone started slowing down. Apps used to stop for 5-10 seconds as soon as they were opened.
mini phone for kids
But if you want, you can buy this phone for your children, because it is neither expensive nor heavy. This is a mini phone that can be useful for children or in an emergency. You should not buy this phone for general use, as it is slow and has limited features.
Features of iPhone 17 Pro Max
Talking about the features of the original iPhone 17 Pro Max, it has A19 Pro chip, which comes with vapor chamber cooling. All 48-megapixel rear cameras offer the longest optical zoom ever on an iPhone. It also features a center-stage front camera, excellent battery life, a heat-forged aluminum unibody design, and the iOS 26 operating system with new Apple Intelligence.
