iPhone 17: New slimmer ‘Air’ mannequin

It’s been rumored for years that Apple is planning to launch a brand new mannequin with higher-end options above the Professional Max. It appears to be like like it might lastly arrive in 2025. A number of analysts have reported that the prevailing Plus mannequin can be changed by a new “Slim” mannequin with a bigger display measurement and a a lot thinner physique. Analyst Jeff Pu was the first to report this transformation, and The Info later reported on the Slim mannequin, stating that it might be a brand new even-higher-end mannequin that sits above “Professional Max” within the lineup and would have a centered rear digital camera and a smaller Dynamic Island.

Pu later mentioned he expects the telephone to have an A19 chip (not A19 Professional), 8GB of RAM, round a 6.6-inch show, an aluminum physique, and a single 48MP rear digital camera.

A extra latest video by Jon Prosser surmises that the slim iPhone can be known as the iPhone Air (we agree that is smart) and will not be the costliest within the lineup, however fairly be a mid-priced mannequin that prioritizes type and design over specs, very similar to the MacBook Air. Moreover, a report by Mark Gurman of Bloomberg in August 2024 claimed the brand new mannequin will match between the usual iPhone and the Professional: ” In order for you one thing snazzier than a regular iPhone–however don’t really want the efficiency, display measurement, or cameras of a Professional mannequin–you will get one thing that appears a lot cooler whereas nonetheless having the specs of a daily iPhone.”

A latest report prompt that Apple gained’t use resin-coated copper parts on the mainboard on account of high quality points with the provider. This was one of many methods Apple deliberate to cut back inside house necessities, so it’s unclear if it would have an effect on the iPhone 17 slim mannequin’s general thickness or not.

iPhone 17: Rumored new options

All iPhone 17 fashions have been rumored to characteristic a 24MP front-facing digital camera and the always-on show is meant to lastly be obtainable on the non-Professional fashions. Some imagine that ProMotion will come to the non-Professional fashions too, because the identical LPTO expertise that permits the always-on show is what makes ProMotion attainable, in Apple’s iPhone implementation. If true, it might be the primary time Apple has supplied ProMotion on a non-Professional system.

Apple can also be mentioned to be working with Corning on a new anti-glare and scratch-resistant glass for the iPhone 17 lineup.

A report from The Info claims that “a minimum of one” mannequin will characteristic a mechanical aperture, which might be new for iPhones however has been seen in a handful of Android telephones to date.

We don’t know a lot about what chips will energy the iPhone 17 line, however we anticipate the high-end fashions (Professional and presumably Slim) will get an A19 Professional, whereas the non-Professional fashions will get both some variant of the A18 or a considerably cut-back model of the A19. Since Apple is anticipated to bump each iPhone 16 mannequin to 8GB of RAM as a result of calls for of Apple Intelligence, rumors have prompt Apple will improve the reminiscence within the iPhone 17 Professional fashions to 12GB.
