In a traditional move following its latest hardware event, Apple has officially discontinued the iPhone 17 Pro and iPhone 17 Pro Max. This decision coincides with the unveiling of the new iPhone 18 Pro lineup, adhering to the company's long-standing strategy of retiring flagship Pro models once their successors are introduced. While these devices will no longer be sold directly through official retail channels, they often remain available through third-party resellers for a limited time, marking the end of their tenure as the primary high-end offerings in the smartphone market.
