• Buying Guide • iPhone 17 • iPhone 17 back cover • iPhone 17 screen guard

By The Hatke team · Updated 28 Oct 2026 · We only list products made for this exact model, in stock, at today's prices.

Looking for iPhone 17 tempered glass? Pick the ₹299 privacy glass if you want a glass guard that also hides your screen from side views, or the ₹50 screen protector for basic scratch cover.

6.3″ OLED, 120Hz Ceramic Shield 2 front Two 48MP rear cameras IP68 · 7.95 mm

Specs from Apple's iPhone 17 spec sheet. Everything below is cut for this model only.

Which iPhone 17 tempered glass should you buy?

Two options. It comes down to privacy and budget.

Good to know: both cover the screen but stop short of the very edge. That's normal, and it leaves room for your case's raised lip.

Best cover for iPhone 17: 6 picks by need

Each one is made for the iPhone 17's size, buttons and dual camera.

Silicone colours in stock: light green, cloud blue and black. More metal-back art: Core Reactor at ₹349.

Want a cheap clear case?
The hybrid shockproof clear case is ₹249. It isn't sold as anti-yellow, so it may tint over time.
IP68, so skip the case?
No. IP68 is about water and dust, not drops. A corner fall can still crack the glass.

Guard the dual camera

Two 48MP lenses sit on the back. They touch the table every time you put the phone down flat.

Rings also come in silver, rose pink and sea green to match your phone.

Charging: what to know

The iPhone 17 charges over USB-C. Apple quotes its fastest speed, 50% in 20 minutes, with a 40W or higher adapter.

Our 20W adapter charges the iPhone 17 fine, just slower than a 40W one. Pick it as a spare, not for top speed.

Questions customers ask us

These come from Google searches and from our chat support.

Which tempered glass is best for iPhone 17?+

The privacy glass if you use your phone in public a lot. If not, the ₹50 screen protector keeps full brightness.

Is the "original silicone case" made by Apple?+

No. "Original Silicone" is the name of our soft-touch style, made by The Hatke for the iPhone 17. See all iPhone 17 silicone colours.

Which iPhone 17 cover is fully transparent?+

The Invisi anti-yellow case and the hybrid shockproof case are both fully clear. Only the Invisi is made to resist yellowing.

Will a magnetic car mount hold my iPhone 17 through a case?+

The phone has MagSafe built in, but a normal case puts distance between it and the mount. Use a case with its own magnet ring, like the anti-yellow MagSafe case.

Do iPhone 17 Pro covers fit the iPhone 17?+

No. The size and camera layout are different, and the same goes for iPhone 16 covers. Pro owners should shop iPhone 17 Pro covers.

Can I order the ₹100 lens glass on its own?+

The listing says it can't be bought alone, so add it with a case or screen guard. Want something for the camera by itself? Pick the metallic lens ring.
