Along these lines, the iPhone 17 Pro will be again, as planned and except for capital surprise, the most powerful mobile of Tim Cook's boys, and rumors now focus on the surprising and novel capacity of their RAM.
What will the new iPhone 17 pro be
According to several sources with origin within the industry, the new iPhone 17 Pro that will be presented in September, It will arrive with 12 GB of RAMwhich is an important leap with respect to the current iPhone 16 Pro, which has 8 GB of RAM. The best of all is that it is not any rumor, but that it has been the analyst Jeff Pu of GFHK Tech Research who has confirmed this improvement for the third time, which added to his great reputation, gives this rumor a notable weight.
This advance in the capacity of the unified memory or RAM of the device is not only a considerable increase and already, but these 12 GB of RAM will make the pro and pro max models of the iPhone 17 offer an unparalleled performance, as we had never seen in the brand, especially in artificial intelligence tasks. With full reason in the world we can say that It would be the most powerful iphone ever created.
More RAM in the iPhone
According to PU, this transition to 12GB LPDDR5 memory would contribute to a 3.5% increase in smartphones dram content worldwide, which would result in approximately 100 million new iPhone devices with better processing capabilities.
This increase in RAM is not something that appears now. In May 2024, PU predicted this increase, and since then, other analysts like Ming-Chi Kuo joined the idea. However, Kuo initially limited the increase of RAM only to the pro max model, something that PU quickly rejected, reaffirming his prediction that both models, Both the iPhone 17 Pro and the Pro Maxthey would receive the improvement of the 12GB of RAM.
In addition to this improvement in memory, PU has added other details about the expected characteristics of the iPhone 17 Pro. Ensures that the devices will include a rear camera with a 48 megapixel teleobjective and a 24 -megapixel front camera, which would raise the quality of photographs to new dimensions. This fits rumors about the improvements in artificial intelligence and multitasking, which would also benefit from this greater memory capacity.
Apple has already begun to increase RAM in its iPhone 16 line last year, giving 8GB of RAM even to the base models such as the iPhone 16 and 16 Plus, a step that allowed the compatibility with Apple Intelligence to extend beyond the pro models. This change was also reflected in the iPhone 16E, which maintained the 8GB of RAM and perfectly supported artificial intelligence.
The design of the iPhone 17 PRO is also expected to change significantly. There is talk of a New camera module with rounded edges that will accommodate three rear cameras arranged in a triangular pattern. It is also rumored that the device frame will be aluminum, abandoning the titanium, and that Dynamic Island will be smaller. In addition, it is expected to have a Wi-Fi 7 chip designed by Apple, which would further improve connectivity.
