Although the iPhone's 20th anniversary is Gloriousstill a few years away, Apple is already planning a "bold" design change.

According to Bloomberg's Mark Gurman, Apple is "preparing a major shake-up" for the iPhone 19 series, slated for release in 2027. That includes a foldable iPhone and an iPhone 19 Pro "that makes more extensive use of glass."

Not much else is known beyond that, apart from ever-persistent rumors about Apple's development of a foldable iPhone, which have recently become more substantial. But Gurman also said this year's iPhone 17 points toward a sleeker, glassier model. Apple will reportedly release a slimmer iPhone 17 "Air." This model is rumored to have the same screen size as current models, will be two millimeters thinner, but will have similar battery life. This, of course, requires some compromises, like featuring only one rear-facing 48MP camera and an A19 chip instead of the A19 Pro chip.

Rumors for the iPhone 17 Pro launching in September 2025 include a 48MP telephoto lens, an A19 Pro chip, and a camera bump redesign.

First, we have Apple's WWDC to contend with, as well as a reported iOS 19 overhaul. Plus, macOS 16, iPadOS 19, tvOS 19, watchOS 12, and visionOS 3 will be revealed on June 9.
