The iPhone 17 series, which will hit the market next year, will receive significant upgrades in design and specifications. Moreover, this line will feature the first ever Slim model.

According to 9to5Mac, the iPhone 17 Slim will replace the Plus model and will get a thinner design. But what exactly this means is still difficult to say.

According to analyst Jeff Pu of Haitong International Securities, all iPhone 17 models will receive an improved front-facing camera. Dynamic Island for iPhone 17 Pro Max will decrease in size. Additionally, it is speculated that Apple may use new metallens technology for the proximity sensor to reduce the size of the Face ID sensor.

According to rumors, the iPhone 17 series will consist of four models:

iPhone 17 (6.1-inch display),
iPhone 17 Slim (with 6.6-inch display),
iPhone 17 Pro (6.3-inch display),
iPhone 17 Pro Max (6.9-inch display).

Pu also claims that the iPhone 17, iPhone 17 Slim and iPhone 17 Pro will feature a more sophisticated aluminum body, while the iPhone 17 Pro Max will retain a titanium design.

According to Insiders, the iPhone 17 and iPhone 17 Slim will come with 8GB of RAM and an A18 or A19 chip, while the iPhone 17 Pro and iPhone 17 Pro Max will have 12GB of RAM and an A19 Pro chip.

Additionally, all four iPhone 17 models will feature a 24-megapixel front-facing camera, which is a significant improvement over the current 12-megapixel cameras used by Apple. This information was also confirmed by the famous analyst Ming-Chi Kuo.
