iPhone 17 Series to See Big Changes, Ultrathin iPhone 17 and More Future iPhone Details

TapTechNews August 11th news, Mark Gurman of Bloomberg revealed in the latest episode of the 'Power On' column that this year's iPhone 16 series will not change much compared to the previous generation, while the iPhone 17 series may see significant adjustments.

Gurman confirmed the existence of the ultrathin iPhone 17 and wrote that their idea is to create some form of a 'Air' iPhone, a product between the iPhone 17 and the iPhone 17Pro. He expects this new ultrathin model to be 'more popular' than the iPhone 12/13 mini and the iPhone 14/15/16 Plus.

In addition, he also described some details about other future iPhone models. Gurman revealed that Apple will hope to incorporate the performance of the Pro version into the smaller model, and the company may not be able to achieve this goal until at least 2027. With a slimmer form factor, Apple may introduce an iPhone Ultra model, which is more attractive than the currently rumored iPhone 17 Slim.

Gurman also revealed that the iPhone SE 4 not only looks like the iPhone 14, but will also support Apple Intelligence, which means this new machine is expected to be equipped with a high-performance chip.

TapTechNews noted that analyst Jeff Pu claimed in May this year that Apple's iPhone 17 lineup next year has significant changes, claiming that the series models will adopt a 'completely new design', while improving the front camera and introducing a smaller Dynamic Island, etc.

Jeff Pu also said that Apple will introduce a new 'iPhone 17 Slim' model to replace the 'Plus' model in the lineup, but this Slim model is not a continuation of the previous iPhone 12/13 mini.
