The Apple iPhone 17 series has officially landed in the Philippines, bringing the redesigned lineup, including the impossibly thin iPhone Air and the thermals-slaying Pro Max version, to local shelves.

Forget lining up and settling for limited financing. For a brief moment, Apple and its partners just decided to eliminate one of the most painful parts of buying a top-tier iPhone: the interest. Lazada, via the Apple Flagship Store on LazMall, has partnered with UnionBank to offer a financing option that makes the new devices accessible… right now.

Forget the standard 12 or 24 months. Until October 19, eligible UnionBank credit cardholders can score any of the new models — the standard iPhone 17, the sleek iPhone Air, the performance-focused iPhone 17 Pro, or the flagship iPhone 17 Pro Max — on a 36-month, 0% installment plan. This is one of the most aggressive, consumer-friendly financing deals seen for a flagship Apple launch in the region.

Hurry, the offer is good until October 19

The deal that makes the iPhone 17 series manageable

This UnionBank-powered offer changes the math completely. The iPhone 17 lineup starts at P57,990 (roughly $998) for the base model, but scales up to P146,990 ($2,529) for the 2TB iPhone 17 Pro Max. Taking on a six-figure payment, even for a handset with a redesigned titanium chassis, a vapor chamber for 40% better sustained performance, and an all-48-megapixel camera array, is a massive commitment.

A 36-month, 0% interest payment plan suddenly shifts that financial burden into an entirely different realm. Instead of having to fork over the equivalent of a down payment on a car, buyers can now secure the top-tier P146,990 ($2,529) Pro Max for around P4,000 ($69) per month — all interest-free, provided they meet the P3,000 ($52) minimum spend requirement and are an eligible UnionBank cardholder. It’s a good deal, as well as a strategic move by LazMall to leverage UnionBank’s financing muscle and guarantee authenticity, sidestepping the gray market entirely.

Choosing your poison (before the clock runs out)

With the financial pressure relieved, buyers can now focus on the hardware. All four devices are technically available for the deal on the Apple Flagship Store, which is essential as this series is less about simple hierarchy and more about choice.

If you’re chasing pure aesthetics, the iPhone Air (starting at P72,990 or $1,256) is the design statement: an astonishingly thin 5.6mm titanium slice running the powerful A19 Pro chip. If you live on mobile games or 8K video editing, the iPhone 17 Pro and iPhone 17 Pro Max are the clear choice, built specifically to eliminate thermal throttling and featuring that new 8x optical-quality telephoto zoom. Even the baseline iPhone 17 (starting at P57,990 or $998) is a major leap, finally adopting the ProMotion 120Hz display and Always-On feature, making it feel dramatically faster than its predecessor.

The caveat, and we cannot stress this enough, is the clock. The promotion window is tied tightly to the local launch, running only until October 19. If you are an eligible UnionBank cardholder who has been waiting for the new 18-megapixel Center Stage front camera or the Wi-Fi 7 connectivity, this is the most affordable way to jump onto Apple’s restructured flagship line. Get your card ready — the window to painless three-year ownership is about to slam shut.
