According to a report from The Information, Apple is said to be in the works of a major redesign for one of its 2025 iPhone models. The report reveals that the new iPhone model, commonly referred to as the "iPhone Slim," is expected to be significantly thinner than current iPhone models and may lead to the discontinuation of the iPhone Plus line.

The report suggests that Apple is still in the testing phase of different designs for the slimmer phone. One possibility is an aluminum chassis with a smaller hole and pill-shaped cutout for the front-facing camera and sensors. The new iPhone is also rumored to include Apple's latest-generation processor, possibly named the A19, and an improved front camera for video calls and selfies.

In terms of display, sources mention that the screen size will fall somewhere between the standard iPhone's 6.12-inch diagonal display and the iPhone Pro Max's 6.69-inch display. Additionally, there are speculations that the rear cameras could be relocated from the upper-left corner of the phone's back to the top center as part of the redesign.

The upcoming iPhone model is predicted to be more expensive than the current iPhone Pro Max model, potentially pushing the lineup further into the luxury territory. The report draws comparisons to the iPhone X's release in 2017, which brought significant advancements to the iPhone, including Face ID, OLED technology, thin bezels, and the removal of the Home button. The iPhone X also marked a price increase, debuting at $999.

While the report doesn't provide concrete details about the new iPhone model, it hints at a major redesign that could potentially introduce new groundbreaking features. With several iterations of year-over-year iPhone updates, this rumored iPhone marks an exciting and possibly expensive new era for Apple's best-selling device.

As always, Apple enthusiasts eagerly await official announcements and confirmations from the tech giant. Stay tuned for further updates on this highly anticipated 2025 iPhone model.
