Apple is reportedly preparing to introduce its next-generation smartphones under the iPhone 17 lineup this September. Unlike previous years, this time the tech giant is set to launch four distinct models: iPhone 17, iPhone 17 Air, iPhone 17 Pro, and iPhone 17 Pro Max. The ‘Plus’ model will likely be discontinued due to weaker demand in recent years.
iPhone 17 Air: Ultra-Thin Form and Balanced Display Size
The spotlight this year may shine brightest on the all-new iPhone 17 Air, tipped to become Apple’s slimmest phone ever. Sources suggest it could measure just 5.5mm at its thinnest edge. The device will offer a 6.6-inch screen, positioned between the Pro (6.3″) and Pro Max (6.9″) variants — catering to users who want a large display without the bulk.
Redesigned iPhone 17 Pro: New Materials, Bigger Camera Housing
Apple is also expected to revamp the iPhone 17 Pro’s design, moving from titanium to an aluminum chassis. The back may feature a unique blend of metal and glass, with a significantly larger rectangular camera block. This model is likely to appeal to pro-level content creators and tech enthusiasts alike.

Camera Features: 8K on Pro, Simplicity on Air
Rumors point to the iPhone 17 Pro having a powerful triple-camera setup — each lens potentially 48MP — covering wide, ultra-wide, and zoom functionality. It may also support 8K video, dual-lens recording, and a mechanical aperture for advanced photography.
The iPhone 17 Air, meanwhile, will keep things streamlined with a single 48MP lens and up to 2x optical zoom, offering good performance for casual users.
All models are expected to get a 24MP front camera, doubling the resolution from previous generations and improving selfies and video calls.

Launch Timeline
