We are still months away from the expected revelation of Apple’s latest iPhone, which we expect will be to launch the next edition of its famous smartphones in the company’s usual September window. In the meantime, many rumors are wandering about the coming device, which is probably called the iPhone 17.
From a newly designed camera module to a thin “air” version of the iPhone 17, Apple’s next line -up has been a lot of resonance about what will bring up. We can even see a fresh blue option for pro -models.
But the biggest news may be to thank the taxes to iPhones. President Donald Trump has threatened that Apple phones made outside the United States will be subject to 25 % tariffs, which can take advantage of the $ 200 or more at the iPhone 17 series prices if all the extra cost is given to the user. We have to wait and see how Apple and CEO Tim Cook respond to this announcement.
And rumors are not just about external exhibitions. Reports show that Apple will restore its software shape with the launch of iOS 19. There are also rumors about the growing Ram in all four expected devices.
Here is what analysts and leakers have predicted about the iPhone 17 lineup.
A thin iPhone 17 ‘Air’
One of the biggest rumors is around the potential iPhone “Air”, a slim version of Apple’s flagship device that will change the iPhone Plus option.
According to analysts Jeff Panjak and Ming Chi Coo, a 6.6 -inch screen can be displayed in the air, which is slightly smaller than the iPhone 16 Plus and the iPhone 16 Pro Max but still larger than the baseline model. A Bloomberg report from March supports these rumors, and the note is that the iPhone can measure 5.5 mm thick. The report also states that the phone will cost around $ 900, which will equalize the iPhone 16 Plus and retain its place in the iPhone rating.
Apple to reduce a device, it will need to trade hardware, and it may also include a phone camera. According to both Kovo and Bloomberg, it is possible that this version of the iPhone 17 will have only one main camera, without ultra -wide and 5X telephoto lenses, which has been a staple for Apple’s premium iPhones for years. When it comes to a camera, it will take a slim iPhone in the same camp as the $ 600 iPhone 16 E, when the phone has only one rear lens. Good news, though, is that selfie camera can be promoted on the iPhone air. More later on it.

An important challenge is to maintain a high battery capacity, as a silicer blood is usually a low space for the battery and thus a potential compromise on the battery life. Bloomberg has suggested that Apple is focused on dealing with this shortcoming. The report also notes that the iPhone 17 Air is expected to be super -Salem Beelz, camera control button and dynamic island.
The PU suggests that the phone will potentially be A18 or A19-branded chip. This is allegedly similar to the baseline iPhone 17. It may also include an Apple 5G modem, called C One Chip, who debuted on the iPhone 16 E.
A high refresh rate in the board
The rumor will feature 120 herts display in all the models of iPhone 17, in which non -pro models will be hit by their current 60 HHz refresh rate. This can be a welcome change, as the contradiction between Pro and non -pro -refresh rate is amazing. When Apple debuted the iPhone 16 and 16 Plus with a 60Hz display, there was a bit of screaming from those who expected more in 2024. This rumor can remedy it-and possibly the display can always be brought to the baseline model.
What we are likely to do Will not According to Macroes, Apple is a new anti -reflective display display. One source allegedly told the publication that Apple had terminated more scratch resistant display coating projects that could appear on the iPhone 17 Pro and Pro Max. This would make them the first iPhone with an anti -reflected screen, which gives them a feature that CNET’s Patrick Netherlands considered one of the best attributes of the Samsung Galaxy S25 ultra. According to Macromers, “Apple Display Coating has difficulty in enhancing the process, and currently this is not a planned feature for the iPhone 17 Pro model.”
Camera upgrade
This is not an iPhone release without a camera upgrade, and there have been many rumors about how the camera module looks like Apple’s upcoming phones. In January, a leak picture of the Majin Bo on X suggested that the phone -shaped camera bar could be presented in the phone, which you must find on Google’s Pixel 9 phones. In February, BU is said to have said about the iPhone 17 lineup that the iPhone 17 Pro models have been asked about the iPhone 17 lineup as well as the iPhone 17 lineup.

The Front Page Tech also shared the iPhone 17 Pro Readers in a video in February, showing a large camera bar that maintains the layout of the lens. The iPhone 17 Air shows a small camera bar in a separate video, which has a lens on the left.
In April, Bloomberg reported that “the iPhone 17 Pro will look more like 16 pro,” he added, “From the front, 17 Pro will look like a 16 Pro. This is a back camera that will look meaningful different.” The latest rumors suggest that the iPhone 17 Pro’s three -lens camera management will be maintained, but he will sit on a new panel that extends in the phone width.
Later in April, Bo once again posted a photo of the desired iPhone 17 lineup, depicting these wider camera bars, with stacked lenses still formed on the left.

Bloomberg says not until next year, on the 20th anniversary of the iPhone, will Apple “will create a big shake -up” for the design of the phone. It includes a (long rumor) foldable version and a “bold new pro model that uses more glasses.”
According to the PU, another rumor about the camera is that the selfie camera will be upgraded to 24 megapixels on all iPhone 17 models, including the iPhone. This is a decent conflict with the current 12 megapixel camera on the iPhone 16 lineup, though it is important to remember that more megapixels do not mean better images automatically. Nevertheless, it would certainly be a welcome development, explaining how quickly people recording selfies on the cameras in front of them and recording videos for tickets and Instagram.
A Sky Blue iPhone 17 Pro
It is unclear what colors will be included in the iPhone 17 lineup. But in April, Bo said the Sky Blue option could be included in the iPhone 17 Pro and Pro Max. In an article, BU writes that “Sources close to the supply chain confirm that several iPhone 17 Pro prototypes have been made in different colors, with Sky Blue.

BU has the blue color of the sky “the iPhone 13 pro’s the most beloved Sierra Sierra is more amazing than the blue, which has brightness and dispersion that makes it irreparable.” (My fellow Jeff Carlson is not so happy about the rumor.)
iOS 19 can take a fresh look
Regarding the inside, Apple allegedly wants to improve its mobile operating system with the release of iOS 19. According to Bloomberg, it includes updating the style of “icons, menos, apps, windows and system buttons.” Sources allegedly told the publication that Apple “is working to facilitate users to visit and control its devices,” and that the design vision borrows from the operating system of the Pro. For example, Visionos contains more circular app icons and Parbasis navigation panels. It is possible that what you see on your future iPhone will make this aesthetic more closely mirror.
The software will allegedly extend to the iPad and Mac, so Apple’s devices will bring consistency. Bloomberg notes that this will be the biggest software shake -up after the release of Macos Big Pig in 2020 and the release of the iOS7 in 2013.
Other potential features
Rumors about the iPhone 17 lineup frames have been back and forth, but the PU will recently have aluminum frames in iPhone 17, iPhone 17 Pro and iPhone 17 Pro Max. He said the iPhone 17 could be outletters with the titanium frame.
In addition, a small ID sensor in the iPhone 17 Pro Max can be a tight dynamic island. The PU has said that the other iPhone 17 models will be allegedly in the same size.
In February, Coo noted that the Apple iPhone will change the Wi -Fi chips of Broadcom for interior chips in the iPhone 17 lineup, which says it will “increase the connection to Apple devices.” It is not yet clear what it would mean, but it would be interesting to have its own Wi -Fi chip with Apple’s C -One Chip.
In April, the Tipster Digital Chat Station noted that in view of the use of Apple Intelligence and AI’s “mass”, all phones will come with 12 GB Ram. Digital trends noted that it is associated with Kovo’s previous tips, which gives rumors some extra weight. The iPhone 16 lineup is at the top of 8GB of RAM, so it will be a remarkable jump.
We will continue to update this piece as a level of more rumors, so make sure to follow it.
