iPhone 17 Slim with Smaller Dynamic Island and Significant Changes Coming Next Year
Design-wise, the iPhone 17 model is going through a fundamental redesign. The objective seems to make the profile thinner, and the new iPhone 17 Slim is designed accordingly since many devices require one hand. In line with that, the latest “Plus” model will be removed and replaced with this new model.
Size-wise, the iPhone 17 line-up will have several choices that will offer something for every taste. However, bigger than the 6.1-inch display will be the 6.6-inch screen of the iPhone 17 slim. The iPhone 17 Pro and Pro Max variants will also bear sizable 6.3-inch and 6.9-inch screens, ideal for those seeking bigger displays.
Improvements for the display are also underway, especially the iPhone 17 Pro Max. It is speculated that with this new sensor technology and metal lenses used under the display, the notch could get smaller and resemble the Dynamic Island. This development might lay a base for the next iPhone edition which will have no notch at all.
The performance of the new series of iPhone 17 should provide a great improvement in speed and mobility. The supposed new range includes the iPhone 17 and 17 Slim, both of which are believed to have 8GB of RAM and either the A17 or A18 chip.

Overall, the whole picture of the rumors turns out to be very interesting for those who like iPhones, having a mix of different size displays, slimmer designs, and improved hardware at the same time. And in the meantime, throughout this year and next, the excitement is only growing for what Apple might be preparing for us.
