We have been hearing about the iPhone 17 Slim for a while now. Rumours and leaks have revealed quite a few details about the next iPhone series phone even though no confirmation has been received from official sources yet.

Now, confirming something that was reported earlier, we have new reports from another non-official industry source.

According to analyst Jeff Pu, Apple is planning a big update to its iPhone lineup in 2025 with the launch of a new iPhone 17 Slim model.

This upcoming iPhone model will most likely focus on a sleek design and simplified features unlike the high-end specifications seen in other models.

According to analyst Jeff Pu and confirmed in a recent 9to5Mac report, the key features of the iPhone 17 Slim include –

• Chip: A19
• Display: 6.6-inch
• RAM: 8GB
• Front-camera: 24MP
• Rear camera: Single 48MP camera
• Biometrics: Face ID
• Casing: Aluminum

The iPhone 17 Slim will have an all-new form factor relacing the current Plus model.

However, it is not yet revealed if we can expect any significant change in price, size or other factors of the upcoming device. Some reports have hinted it could even be priced higher than the iPhone Pro Max model.

iPhone 17 Lineup – What To Expect?

Along with the iPhone 17 Slim, the rest of the iPhone 17 lineup will include some significant upgrades:

• iPhone 17 and iPhone 17 Slim: Both will feature 8GB of RAM and the A19 chip.
• iPhone 17 Pro and Pro Max: These models will come with 12GB of RAM and an upgraded A19 Pro chip.
• Pro Max Model: The iPhone 17 Pro Max will feature a smaller Dynamic Island due to new “metalens” technology, which could reduce the size of the Face ID sensor.

Earlier this year, analyst Ming-Chi Kuo suggested that all upcoming iPhone 17 models will include a 24MP front camera.

This is a significant boost from the 12MP sensors that can be found in current iPhone models.

However, the 9to5Mac report hints that all reports and rumours are still in development. There is always a chance that these plans will change in future before actual production.

It is clear Apple is aiming for a major shift in design and performance with the iPhone 17 series. Apple fans will have to wait until September 2025 for the official announcement.
