Apple’s first representative in the ultra -thin segment, the iPhone 17 Air, can hit the market with 12GB RAM – just as much RAM as are expected to have Pro models of the series, Analyzer Ming-chi Kuo reportsS For comparison, all models in the iPhone 16 series are equipped with 8 GB of RAM – an amount that is becoming increasingly uncomfortable nowadays.
Initially, Quo had shared an increase in RAM only with Pro models of the upcoming series, but in its new post, the analyst even shared the possibility of the basic version of the iPhone 17 also being upgrade with 12GB RAM.
However, it depends on the ability of the production restrictions that Apple is confronted with to be overcome. At least for now, given the economic situation worldwide, such a development of things seems rather unattainable.
With the development of the AI Package Apple Intelligence, the increasingly powerful hardware will be imperative, even if some of its functionalities are still lost in translation. The additional amount of RAM for the iPhone 17 is expected to be made mainly by Micron and SK Hynix.
Kuo ends with the information that in the event of an inability, Apple can provide the required amount of memory to upgrade the main iPhone 17, this will happen with the next cycle of new devices in 2026 and the arrival of the iPhone 18 series.
