iPhone 17 Ultra: A New Era in iPhone Naming and Features?
iPhone 17 Lineup Names May See a Major Overhaul A new rumor suggests that Apple will revamp its naming convention for the entire iPhone 17 lineup, with the highest-end model being renamed to the iPhone 17 Ultra. This change aims to create a clearer distinction between models. The iPhone 17 Ultra is expected to feature:
- A smaller Dynamic Island
- Advanced vapor chamber cooling technology
- A larger battery These changes are reportedly based on supply chain information and investment reports. Additionally, there's speculation that Apple might introduce an iPhone Slim or Air model, which could be up to 30% thinner than the current iPhone 16. The potential lineup would include:
- iPhone 17 Air or Slim
- iPhone 17
- iPhone 17 Pro
- iPhone 17 Ultra While this leaker has an average track record for accuracy, there is precedent for Apple changing model names, such as with the iPhone 6 Plus in 2015 and the iPhone 11 Pro in 2019.
