Rumors suggest that Apple is planning to introduce the iPhone 17 next year with a significantly thinner design. It is expected that this new model will surpass the Pro Max in both specifications and price, potentially making it the most expensive option in Apple’s lineup, with a starting price higher than the Pro Max, which is currently priced at $1199.
Rumors suggest that the iPhone 17 will have a significant redesign reminiscent of the iPhone X, which may include moving the rear cameras to the upper center of the device and a narrower Dynamic Island. The display size is expected to range from 6.1 to 6.7 inches. Additional features may include an aluminum body, A19 chip, and an improved front camera.
It is possible that the iPhone 17 Plus will not be part of next year’s lineup, which will only consist of four models. This slimmer model was mentioned in previous reports by Apple supply chain analyst Apple and display manufacturing expert Ross Young, who speculated about a 6.5-inch screen.
Although Apple is still testing multiple design options, possible delays could push the release of this model to a later date than 2025.
