I’m getting the 17 Pro for around ₹56K after exchange at Reliance Digital.

The 18 Pro seems to have better cameras, battery life, and some extra video features. What’s the real-world difference? Are features like ProRes, Apple Log, LUT support, and other pro video modes available on the 17 Pro too, or are some software-locked to the 18 Pro? For ₹56K, is the 17 Pro the better deal, or is the 18 Pro worth paying extra for?

P.S - I already have iphone 17.

I currently have an iPhone 17 and have been using it for almost a year. However, recently, the camera and overall performance have become unsatisfactory. For example, videos taken in low-light conditions are hazy, and zooming typically results in a loss of sharpness. Additionally, when travelling in India, I sometimes need to take zoomed-in photos, such as those of temples. Furthermore, the battery issue and overheating of the iPhone are also bothering me.

I have noticed that Samsung S26 offers a smoother operating system and very user-friendly options like the swipe in wallet then google assistant.

Do share honest reviews and suggestions.
