According to recent information shared by Jeff Pu, an analyst at Haitong International, Apple is planning to launch the iPhone 17 series next year with a new look and some significant changes. The series will include four models, namely iPhone 17, iPhone 17 Slim, iPhone 17 Pro, and iPhone 17 Pro Max.
The new series will feature a redesigned appearance, and the selfie camera system in the Dynamic Island on the front will also change. The iPhone Plus variant will be discontinued and replaced by the iPhone 17 Slim, which will come with a thinner design. The screen sizes will remain the same as the previous models, with 6.1 inches for iPhone 17 and 17 Slim, 6.3 inches for iPhone 17 Pro, and 6.9 inches for iPhone 17 Pro Max.
The iPhone 17 series will also have a more complex aluminum structure, while the iPhone Pro will still be made of high-end titanium frames. The iPhone 17 Pro Max will have a smaller Dynamic Island, which will depend on whether the company improves the technology to help reduce the number of proximity sensors for the Face ID system.
In terms of hardware configuration, iPhone 17 and 17 Slim will be equipped with 8 GB RAM and come with an A18 or A19 chip, while the iPhone 17 Pro and 17 Pro Max will have 12 GB RAM and come with the highest-end A19 Pro chip. All four iPhone 17 models will have a 24 MP camera on the front, an upgrade compared to the 12 MP selfie camera system found on all iPhone 15 models.
Overall, the iPhone 17 series promises to be a significant upgrade from its predecessors, with new features and improvements that will enhance the user experience.
