The new lineup would feature enhanced processor performance, thermal management, and imaging capabilities.
The iPhone 17 and Air are expected to feature the A19 processor, while the pro series will adopt the A19 Pro. DRAM capacity will be increased to 12GB on the Air, Pro, and Pro Max, and NAND Flash storage will start at 256GB for these models, up to 1TB.
Overall, the products are expected to have major camera upgrades, with the front camera moving from 12MP to 24MP and all rear cameras raised to 48MP.
A redesigned rectangular array and optimized software algorithms to enhance optical zoom and image resolution is exclusive to the Pro Models.
