TrendForce：iPhone17全系列手机规格参数预测

Core Viewpoint - The upcoming iPhone 17 series, including iPhone 17, iPhone 17 Air, iPhone 17 Pro, and Pro Max, is expected to enhance sales due to improvements in design, processor performance, cooling, and camera capabilities, despite potential challenges from a weak global economy and possible price increases for high-end models [2][3]. Product Specifications - The iPhone 17 series will feature the A19 processor for standard and Air models, while the Pro models will be equipped with the A19 Pro processor. The RAM for the Air, Pro, and Pro Max models will be increased to 12GB, with storage options starting from 256GB up to 1TB [4][6]. - The display technology across the series will utilize Flexible AMOLED with a refresh rate of 120Hz. The iPhone 17 will have a 6.2" display, the Air will have a 6.6" display, the Pro will also have a 6.2" display, and the Pro Max will feature a 6.8" display [4][6]. Market Expectations - TrendForce forecasts a 3.5% increase in the shipment volume of the iPhone 17 series compared to the iPhone 16 series in 2024, with the Pro series expected to remain the main sales driver. However, the introduction of the iPhone 17 Air may face challenges in meeting consumer demands for larger batteries and high-quality photography due to its reduced battery capacity and simplified camera specifications [3][6]. - The pricing for the iPhone 17 is expected to remain consistent with the previous year, while the Air, Pro, and Pro Max models may see price increases of $50 to $100 compared to last year's models, with the Air model targeting a price point similar to Samsung's S25 Edge [6][7]. Strategic Positioning - The introduction of the Air series and the anticipated foldable models represent Apple's strategy to diversify its product line and attract a broader consumer base. Future product releases may be structured to launch a mid-range model in the first half of the year, followed by the Air, Pro, Pro Max, and foldable models in the second half, creating a more distinct product matrix [7].
