Source: apple.com (verified 2026-07-08) · corroborated by apple.com. Re-verified against the re-fetched Apple pages. Specs read verbatim from the official iPhone 17 Pro / 17 Pro Max technical specifications page, taking the Pro Max column: 6.9-inch Super Retina XDR OLED display, ProMotion adaptive refresh up to 120Hz, A19 Pro chip, 256GB base storage, 48MP Fusion Main camera, 233 grams (the Pro Max weight; the smaller Pro is 206 g, which confirms this is the Max variant), rated IP68, iOS 26, and 5G (sub-6 GHz and mmWave) support. The spec page publishes no RAM figure, no battery mAh capacity (only video-playback hours), and no single wired charging wattage, so ram_gb, battery_mah, and charge_w remain null. priceUsd $1,199 is the 256GB Pro Max base, corroborated on Apple's US store buy page: the pricing ladder that includes the 2TB tier ($1,999) — 2TB being Pro Max-exclusive per the specs page — starts at $1,199.00 for 256GB, versus the $1,099 iPhone 17 Pro base, so $1,199 is unambiguously the Pro Max. releaseDate was NULLED on re-verification: neither the fetched specs page nor the fetched buy page states a September 2025 availability date (the only dated reference on the specs page is "Testing conducted by Apple in July 2025"); the September 19, 2025 date existed only in the newsroom press release, which is not among the re-fetched source/corroboration URLs, so it could not be verbatim-confirmed here. display_type omits an LTPO label because the page states ProMotion adaptive refresh and Always-On display but never prints the word LTPO. 10 of 13 specKeys survive verification; exact model (Pro Max) confirmed.
