Overview

  • The iPhone 17 series, set for a September 2025 release, includes four models: iPhone 17, 17 Pro, 17 Pro Max, and a new ultra-slim iPhone 17 Air.
  • The iPhone 17 Pro features a redesigned rear camera module that spans the device's width and matches its color, but overall design changes are minimal compared to the iPhone 16 Pro.
  • Leaked details about iOS 19 suggest a refreshed interface with rounder app icons, floating tab bars, and shimmering visual effects inspired by visionOS.
  • Apple is reportedly planning a major redesign for its 20th anniversary in 2027, including a foldable iPhone and a Pro model with extensive use of glass.
  • The iPhone 17 Air is expected to be thinner than current models, with a single rear camera and trade-offs in hardware to achieve its slim profile.
