The so-called iPhone 17 Air, which is rumored to be coming this fall, is said to be Apple’s thinnest iPhone ever. But, if the company had gone through some of its earlier plans for the device, slimness may not have been the most talked-about element.

For years, we’ve heard about a mythical top-flight device called the iPhone Ultra. It looks like 2025 could be the year it becomes real.

Apple may be set to replace the iPhone 17 Pro Max with a new ‘Ultra’ model, according to a recent report from the Naver blog. The rumour, based on supply chain analysis, suggests that the upcoming iPhone 17 Ultra will introduce new hardware features that distinguish it from previous Pro Max models.
