Apple’s bumping up the thickness of its upcoming premium iPhone, noted leaker IceUniverse claimed this week onWeiboandX.
The iPhone 17 Pro Max is said to be 8.725mm thick, up from the 8.25mm of its predecessor.
Or the extra room could be to accommodate a larger battery.
The iPhone 17 Air is 5.5mm thick, and the iPhone 17 Pro Max is 8.725mm thick.
But there’s always room for improvement.
Of course, that thinner profile comes with its own trade-offs.
Chief of which is the cameras, or lack thereof.
Apple’s rumored to downgrade to just a single camera lens instead of the expected two on its flagships.
This thin frame will reportedly support a 6.6-inch OLED display, a tad smaller than theiPhone 16 Plus6.7-inch panel.
We’ll know more in September when Apple’s expected to launch its next series of iPhones.
