Summary of Rumors Regarding Apple's iPhone 17 Ultra Naming Change
(Based on sources from Weibo, Taiwan, U.S. investment reports, and supply chain trends)
1. Smaller Dynamic Island Exclusive to Ultra
• (Comparing component orders, the quantity appears insufficient to cover even the Pro model.)
2. Vapor Chamber Cooling Exclusive to Ultra
• (Confirmed through supply chain sources.)
3. Larger Battery Exclusive to Ultra
• (This results in increased thickness.)
Most importantly, Apple is expected to further differentiate its lineup by introducing an Air (tentative name) model and renaming the top-tier model as Ultra, creating a clearer distinction between the Pro and Max models.

If accurate, the lineup we'd see unveiled in September would be the iPhone 17, iPhone 17 Air, iPhone 17 Pro, and iPhone 17 Ultra.
Check out these concept renders for a better look at the expected design of the iPhone 17 Pro/Ultra.
