One of the key updates is the introduction of a new iPhone model, designed to be 8 millimeters thinner than existing versions. This sleek design also incorporates a simplified camera, reducing production costs and making it a more budget-friendly alternative to the "Pro" models.
Apple is also planning to enter the foldable device market with two new devices. One will have a 19-inch foldable screen and function as a laptop, while the smaller model will be a foldable phone larger than the iPhone 16 Pro Max. Although Apple has been slow to enter this sector, analysts predict that the release of these devices could be delayed until 2026 due to technical challenges.
Additionally, Apple aims to attract design-conscious consumers with the slim phone, reflecting the company’s strategy to expand its product portfolio and drive growth. This comes as iPhone sales experience a slight decline, even though they still account for about half of the company’s revenue.
