Apple’s iPhone 17 lineup is set to feature four distinct models, with two of them debuting new display sizes. The iPhone 17 Air, which has been the subject of much discussion, is one of these models. Additionally, the standard iPhone 17 will also showcase a different display size.
Recent insights from display analyst Ross Young have highlighted the anticipated screen dimensions across the iPhone 17 series. According to these projections, the iPhone 17 will include a larger 6.27-inch display, comparable to the current iPhone 16 Pro. This expands upon the trend Apple started with the 16 Pro and Pro Max, which introduced larger screens, while the iPhone 16 and 16 Plus maintained the same dimensions.
For context, here are the reported display sizes:
– iPhone 17: 6.27 inches (up from 6.12 inches)
– iPhone 17 Air: 6.55 inches
– iPhone 17 Pro: 6.27 inches (same as iPhone 16 Pro)
– iPhone 17 Pro Max: 6.86 inches (no change from iPhone 16 Pro Max)
In rounding off the sizes, Apple lists the iPhone 17 and iPhone 17 Pro as 6.3 inches, while the iPhone 17 Pro Max measures 6.9 inches. The 6.55-inch display of the iPhone 17 Air is set to be slightly smaller than the 6.7-inch display of the iPhone 16 Plus. Beyond the display size changes, the iPhone 17 is anticipated to have minimal alterations compared to its predecessor.
While the Pro models and the iPhone 17 Air will likely showcase a new horizontal rear camera layout, the main iPhone 17 will retain the same camera design as its predecessor. Upcoming features include the expansion of the 120Hz ProMotion refresh rate, a 24-megapixel selfie camera, and a faster A19 chip.
