Transcripts
I'm sick you're sick we are all sick of
getting the same iPhone year after year
after year but what if finally we have a
redesign coming a brand new form factor
for iPhone in this video I put it all on
the line I put my hair on the line with
a gentleman's prediction and a
gentleman's bet absolute full disclosure
here today we are talking about the
iPhone 17
Slim So an iPhone for not this year but
the next I rarely say this but I'm going
to ask you to pay attention to this
video I'm going to need you to follow me
closely to pick up every little piece
that I put down the information an
insanely accurate publication the first
to ever show us Vision Pro by the way
years ahead of time and quing chi have
both mentioned a new but slim iPhone
that is on the way how slim well here it
is up next to an iPhone 15 Pro Max I'm
just going to come out and tell you the
chances of that being true are actually
very good the issue is that most
Publications and like personalities
discussing this stuff can't seem to
agree which parts of this rumor are true
and which are not they seem to think
it's confusing but I don't think it's
confusing I just think they are confused
and also wrong iPhone 12 by the way yes
it has been that long since we have had
a major design change to the form factor
of iPhone and that came out almost four
I'm sorry
what 4 years
ago time is not real not
real and we are slowly dying slowly
dying sure yeah I know since then we
have gotten the dynamic Island instead
of a notch starting with iPhone 14 pro
but come on and wrapping it all in
titanium DS the same bones underneath
the whole idea of going thinner Slimmer
airier is an obsession that goes way
back since forever Apple has always been
pursuing the thinnest possible product
let alone iPhone all in all so far this
rumor tracks again thankfully a lot of
the details come to us from one of the
most reputable sources in the game quing
Chi and if he's correct we aren't just
adding another iPhone to the four that
already come out every year no sir Tim
Cook
demands
sacrifice a life for a life a slim
iPhone 17 is going to cost us the iPhone
17 plus the plus model currently
accounts for only about 5 to 10% of
total new iPhone shipment
it implies that the other three iPhone
models standard pro and pro Max already
adequately cover the high-end market
segments making the plus model
redundant yeah imagine being
redundant actually you know what hang on
go ahead and write that last part down
not that part about being redundant the
part about losing the plus model and
gaining a slim Thin Air Model because
that'll be important in uh say the next
few minutes there is a big awkward
elephant in the room and that elephant
is a price tag of
$199
$1,300 that is the rumored price
floating around for this device that
little piece of scary was provided by a
leaker known as ice universe who is not
as accurate as the other two but still
ice Universe might be correct there is a
chance of that I just don't think that
he is it seems that no publication nor
pundit can agree on the actual details
of this phone sort of labeling it as
confusing and a mess yeah but what if it
wasn't confusing though I'm here today
to tell you that we shouldn't be looking
at this device like the first iPhone
slim we should be looking at it as the
first ever iPhone Air and I am prepared
to make my case and bet my hair after
this sponsor break you may have seen the
latest scary movie long legs but you
know what's even scarier data Brokers

siphon as much of your data as possible
phone numbers addresses Social Security

relatives they take that data and sell

delet me.com FrontPage Tech quing Chi
goes on to say that while this totally
looks like apple is replacing the iPhone
plus model with a slim model this is not
the case yeah I however do not think
that is a meaningless detail things
really start to get interesting when quo
tells us that Apple will be placing
emphasis on features like an Innovative
form factor and design instead of more
performance oriented features like how
fast the new Apple silicon chip is or
how many gigapixels are in that camera
you know nerd stuff remember keep that
whole idea of an iPhone air in your back
pocket hopefully when I mentioned it
earlier you wrote it down a little note
folded up saved it for later it's almost
later now perhaps more interesting than
everything mentioned before this point
is a list of specifications that quo has
provided these are the current Bel specs
of what everyone is calling the iPhone 7
17 slim a screen size of approximately
6.6 in screen resolution approximately
2740 by 1260 the processor inside a19
chip not a19
pro the dynamic Island area will be
similar to the current models it'll
feature a metal frame adoption of a
titanium aluminum alloy metal frame with
a lower percentage of titanium than the
current pro and pro Max Metal Frames du
less you say inside you'll also find a
5G modem created by Apple's in-house
team oh and the camera uh just one there
is one single camera on the back ah
there it is that last one huh pretty
interesting wouldn't you say this is a
premium phone that will be priced above
the pro and pro Max models and it
features an a19 chip not the pro and has
a single camera
on the back iPhone 15 and 15 plus come
in with a 6.1 in and 6.7 in display
respectively so a 17 slim at 6.6 in sure
seems like it would slide right between
them like a hot dog between some buns in
fact the display resolution is even
cozied up how convenient right up to
what we would expect from a plus model
only being off by around 100 pixels in
total so really not that different at
all in perceivable you might say to the
naked eye like the say the differences
between me and Christian
Bale and when we weigh the pricing
options for iPhone 17 slim the rumored
specs really tell a story I mean don't
you think I'll just ask you do these
specs scream premium $1300 phone to you
I have prepared for you a simple
exercise and after we perform said
exercise how how do you feel how do you
feel if we replace the word slim with
air suddenly not confusing not a mess in
fact all of this now makes sense MacBook
Air the lighter thinner airier impulse
by MacBook that targets casual consumers
iPad Air the lighter thinner airier
midrange option for iPad okay maybe some
of you are yet to be convinced in that
case don't worry I have a follow-up
question as part of this exercise uh the
question is who would you say cares more
about how a phone might look would you
say it is the pros or perhaps would you
maybe say it could be the Casual Apple
fan that knows that phone looks new I'm
just listen I'm just throwing this out
there one of these groups of people does
not know or care to know what is on the
inside of that phone but they can tell
they can see what looks new and that's
going to look brand spanking new ladies
and gents what we are seeing here is an
absolute Banger of a value proposition a
Sleek trendy new Slimmer thinner aier
iPhone believe me I see all the reports
I hear what everyone is saying and I get
it I just happen to be at the other end
of that
Spectrum
hey do you remember how the MacBook Air
was introduced when Steve Jobs enveil
the first MacBook Air all the way back
in 2008 there was incredible intention
in everything he told us and more
importantly the order of features that
he listed out when introducing the new
world's thinnest laptop size weight
Dimensions they were at the absolute for
Forefront along with his usual razab and
wouldn't you believe it it wasn't until
the end of all of that after all that
had been established that is when he did
go ahead and mention that yeah it's
going to be fast and have the same
performance as the rest of their
consumer focused Max the iPhone 15 Pro
is like 8 something millimet there's a
number somewhere a yes 15 Pro Max 8.2 mm
thick the rumored thickness for the 17
slim 5 mm to me the writing is on the
wall a single rear camera on a phone
that looks trendy and brand new a Bas
level a19 chip specifically not the pro
one and basically the same resolution as
an iPhone 15 plus and on top of that
they're discontinuing one of the base
models they're getting rid of the plus
model Pro nah N N N I believe that next
year we are going to get the first ever
iPhone Air and it will be priced
accordingly I'm so sure of this that if
this phone launches and it has these
mid-range midlevel specs that have
leaked if that phone comes out and it is
$1300 scratch that if this phone comes
out and it is even a penny more than
that Year's Pro Max model I will shave
off every hair on my head I will shave
my head and don't you think I won't
I have a
certain history I can't really see
myself in the oh my we have had no
shortage of performance focused high-end
high-priced iPhones blazingly fast
iPhones with cameras on the back that
have enough Fidelity to shoot an entire
Apple event it's now or never Tim it's
getting a little stale at the
bottom maybe it's time to get some air
