Apple is gearing up to launch its much-anticipated iPhone 17 series in September 2025, and early leaks have already generated major buzz. The new lineup is expected to include four distinct models:

iPhone 17

iPhone 17 Air

iPhone 17 Pro

Notably, Apple appears set to retire the “Plus” variant, replacing it with the sleeker iPhone 17 Air, reportedly designed to appeal to users who prioritize ultra-slim form factors.

🔹 Design Changes & Materials

The iPhone 17 will retain a familiar look.

The iPhone 17 Air is expected to be extremely slim with a single rear camera.

The Pro and Pro Max models may undergo a major redesign, with a new camera module and repositioned flash and LiDAR sensors.

Apple may switch from titanium to aluminum frames, especially for the Air and base models.
