Ready for the Switch? How to Prep Smartly for Your iPhone 17 Upgrade

A new iPhone launch is always exciting—sleeker design, improved performance, smarter features. But before you click that “pre-order” button for the iPhone 17, it’s worth pausing to consider what a real upgrade looks like—and what you’ll need to make the most of it from day one.

Whether you’re a loyal Apple user or just eyeing the next big thing, here’s a smart checklist to guide your decision (and keep your new tech protected in style).

Do You Really Need to Upgrade?

Sounds simple, but it’s worth asking. If you’re still rocking an iPhone 13 or earlier, chances are the iPhone 17’s performance boost, camera upgrades, and battery life enhancements will feel like a major leap forward. If you're using a 14 or 15 model, weigh whether the changes are meaningful for your daily use.

Choose the Right Model for Your Life

Size, camera configuration, and display quality now vary more than ever across iPhone models. If you shoot a lot of content, look at the Pro versions. Prefer a smaller size that fits in your pocket? The standard version might be enough. Think about how you use your phone, not just how it looks on launch day.

Get Your Accessories Ready—Before Everyone Else

Once that keynote ends, the accessory rush begins. Screen protectors, cases, MagSafe chargers—they often sell out fast for the newest models. Smart buyers prep early.

If you’re serious about protection, don’t settle for cheap plastic. At Ryan London, we’re already one step ahead: we’ve crafted our iPhone 17 leather cases based on Apple’s design pipeline, building on the success of our iPhone 16 series. Durable, stylish, and made to fit your life—not just your phone.

Don’t Forget the Screen

Cracks, scratches, smudges—we’ve all been there. With larger edge-to-edge displays, screen protection matters more than ever. A good screen protector with a precision applicator not only saves you from a shattered display but keeps your phone looking brand new longer.

Style Meets Substance

Your phone is with you all day. Why not treat it like part of your outfit?

A quality leather case doesn’t just protect—it reflects your personality, your values, and your attention to detail. It says you care about long-term value, not throwaway trends. That’s why more users are choosing timeless materials like leather that age beautifully while delivering serious protection.

The iPhone 17 promises to be powerful, stylish, and versatile. Make sure your accessories live up to that promise, too. If you want to start strong, start smart—upgrade your tech and your gear.
