Analyst Ming-Chi Kuo suggests that only the iPhone 17 Pro Max will feature 12GB of RAM, while other iPhone 17 models and the iPhone SE 4 will have 8GB. This aligns with Apple's requirement for the minimum 8GB RAM for Apple Intelligence features in iOS 18. The iPhone 17 Pro Max will also have an exclusive cooling system combining vapor chamber technology with graphite sheets.
Apple's iPhone 16 models are set for a September launch. Google has moved its Pixel 9 Pro XL announcement to August, ahead of Apple's release. The Pixel 9 Pro XL features AI capabilities and a unique camera design, enhancing its competitive edge against the iPhone 15 Pro Max.
The iPhone 17 lineup is rumored to include models with 12GB of RAM for advanced AI applications, making them more suitable for edge AI processing. This would be a significant upgrade from the 8GB expected in the iPhone 16 lineup.
iOS 18 and iOS 18.1 are in beta testing, with iOS 18.1 introducing Apple Intelligence features like writing tools, suggested replies in Messages, and phone call recording. Notification summarization is also extended to all apps.
Apple's iPhone event is scheduled for September 9, with pre-orders potentially starting on September 12. This year's event will introduce the iPhone 16 lineup.
