Apple may launch thinnest and lightest iPhone next year!

Apple iPhone 17 lineup may get a thinnest and lightest model, reports MarkGurman. We’ve heard iPhone 17 Slim rumors in the past, indicating additional slimmer models for next year. A trustworthy source believes that the strategy would be applied to next year’s models.

According to the info, Apple is focused on the thinnest and lightest phone in time for the iPhone 17. The company may introduce an additional model, which would be slimmer and lighter than the other models. It’s expected to be unveiled with a “Slim” branding.

It aligns with the previous reports cited the arrival of a Slim model next year. Apple is focused on developing a significantly skinnier phone in time for the iPhone 17 line in 2025. Interestingly, Samsung is also expected to launch Galaxy Z Fold 6 Slim in select markets this year.

To be noted, the iPhone 15 standard model weighs 171 grams and has a thickness of 7.80mm. As of now, the source hasn’t mentioned any kind of additional info regarding the Slim variant. The expected weight and thickness of the next year’s iPhone remain to be known.

The US tech giant is also developing thinner MacBook Pro and Apple Watch. The company’s plans to launch thinner and lighter products are expected to hit the market with the next iPad Pro. It is expected to be the thinnest and lightest across the whole tech industry.

As competition is getting fierce in the market, Apple is making radical changes to its products. As people prefer having a phone with robust specifications, the design also matters the same way. Thinner and lighter iPhone models would be easier to handle and feel elegant.
