Apple iPhone 17 Pro may come with this design change
As the launch of Apple iPhone 17 series gets closer, rumorus about the upcoming iPhone series have increased. The 2025 iPhone lineup may consist of four models – iPhone 17, iPhone 17 Pro, iPhone 17 Pro Max and the all-new iPhone 17 Air. Tipster Majin Bu recently shared alleged renders of the iPhone 17 Pro that shows a significant design change with the coming-soon device. The leakster, in a blog post, claims that the Cupertino-based company may reposition the Apple logo which is currently placed slightly off-center and below the camera module since the iPhone X. With the iPhone 17 Pro models, the logo may now be moved lower, toward the center bottom of the phone. 'This recent discovery, reported by direct sources among case manufacturers, marks an evolution in Apple's aesthetic language,' Bu writes. The report adds that the repositioning of Apple logo has raised concerns among manufacturers about possible interference, leading the industry to look for ways to ensure continued compatibility. Some factories have already produced cases based on the current design and are waiting for official confirmation before making changes. To address the issue, case makers are working on design changes. Apple iPhone 17 Pro expected features A report by The Information previously said that the iPhone 17 Pro may come with a redesigned rear panel composed of both aluminum and glass. It may feature an aluminum rear panel, housing a camera bump, bigger than the one found on the iPhone 16 Pro models. The report further added that the iPhone 17 Pro may come with an aluminium frame, replacing the titanium frame like their predecessors. On the specifications part, the phone may come powered by Apple's A19 Pro chip, manufactured using TSMC's 3nm process. iPhone 17 Pro is said to offer 12GB of RAM, up from the iPhone 16 Pro's 8GB. For camera duties, it may have a 48MP telephoto lens, replacing the 12MP sensor found in the iPhone 16 Pro. For selfies, the smartphone is tipped to have a 24MP sensor. iPhone 16e vs Pixel 9a: Everything you need to know about Apple and Google's new budget flagships AI Masterclass for Students.

These Rumored iPhone 17 Pro Max Features Make Me Want It Now
I've never been one to track rumors of upcoming iPhone models, even as I've followed Apple's mobile phone adventure from the beginning (yep, I was in the room where it started). Why chase today's speculation when we'll all find out what's coming during the new iPhone announcements in September? But that's the catch, isn't it? September is suddenly not so far away, which means now is the time when people start thinking about fall budgets and whether the iPhone they've been holding onto can make it through one more year -- or even just the summer. So maybe right now is not such a bad time to check in on what we might expect to see in the next generation of Apple's most important products. In this case, I'm curious about the iPhone 17 Pro Max, not just because it's the largest iPhone model each year, but because Apple sometimes uses it to introduce features that sometimes don't come to the regular-size iPhone Pro until later. The 5x telephoto camera in the iPhone 16 Pro and iPhone 16 Pro Max, for example, first appeared on the iPhone 15 Pro Max -- a lot of photographers I know had to choose a better zoom or easier pocketability. What I'm seeing so far has me very interested indeed. Now, I'm looking forward to September for more than simply cooler weather and hot beverages. Here's a rundown of some of the features rumored for the iPhone 17 Pro Max that I'm most curious about. Making the case to go larger The iPhone Pro Max models are tanks compared to the rest of the line -- well, they're not on the toughness level of the Samsung Galaxy XCover7 Pro, so maybe they're more like solid midsize SUVs. But they're notable for their larger screens, bigger bodies and especially for having room for more of everything in an iPhone. And that includes a larger battery. The Max models already have more battery space than other models, but the iPhone 17 Pro Max could end up being almost half a millimeter thicker, at 8.725 mm, according to a May post by 9to5Mac. Has anyone ever asked for a more bulky iPhone? Actually, yes, yes and yes. The iPhone 17 Pro Max could get thicker. Apple/Lily Yeh/CNET Add the new Adaptive Power feature in iOS 26, which uses AI to distribute power more efficiently when demand is high, and we could see a boost in daily use before reaching for a charger. (Then again, Adaptive Power could be a software workaround that could mean longer life using the same physical battery size.) If you're already committed to carrying a larger iPhone, a tad more thickness and heft isn't too much more to shoulder. There are also rumors that the iPhone lineup will include a new sky blue color, about which I have opinions. Bring on all the camera upgrades We can't talk about the case without mentioning the camera bump, which could become a more expansive camera island (or maybe on the larger iPhone 17 Pro Max, it will be more like a camera continent) that stretches across the width of the iPhone back, according to CAD renders by Majin Bu. That expanse may include an upgraded 48-megapixel telephoto camera, which feels overdue for a top-tier camera system. Granted, it will probably take extra steps to capture photos in the full 48-megapixel resolution, as is the case with the current main Fusion camera in the iPhone 16 Pro models, where images are "pixel-binned" with multiple pixels grouped together to enhance light gathering ability. But given the great results we've seen from the 48-megapixel camera in the current models -- the iPhone 16E leans heavily on that resolution using its sole rear-facing camera -- extending it to the telephoto camera would definitely be a win for photographers. Will the layout and configuration of the cameras change from the iPhone 16 Pro shown here in the new iPhone 17 Pro Max? James Martin/CNET Speaking of resolution, a 24-megapixel front-facing camera is expected, up from 12 megapixels, so perhaps my selfies will look better. More likely, it's to boost the next rumored feature. Video recording makes a leap Cameras on both sides will reportedly work together with dual video recording using the built-in Camera app, a boon for conducting interviews or making reaction videos where you want to see both sides of a conversation. Third-party apps have been able to tap into this capability for some time, but haven't been available as a default option. Not as important for everyday use, but interesting in terms of advancing the state of the art, the iPhone 17 Pro Max could support 8K video recording, as speculated by MacRumors after reports that 8K was tested for the iPhone 16 Pro. The iPhone is swiftly turning into a production video camera, from features such as 28 Years Later to custom cameras built from iPhone tech in the F1 movie. Wi-Fi 7 and fast cellular via a new Apple modem This is more geeky and less obvious to everyday phone owners, but that's also kind of the point. The iPhone 16E shipped with Apple's C1 cellular modem, Apple's first homebrew cellular hardware it has been trying to build in order to wean its dependence on Qualcomm, which has provided the modem hardware in previous iPhone models. However, the C1 lacks a faster millimeter wave cellular network and does not support Wi-Fi 7, even though it's more conservative about power usage (and still performs well), an acceptable tradeoff for the budget phone in Apple's lineup. The C1 is Apple's first cellular modem. We could see a more capable C2 chip in the iPhone 17 Pro models. Apple/Screenshot by Jeff Carlson/CNET But for the iPhone 17 Pro Max, we're talking about the next professional models, and an iPhone Pro in 2025 can't ship without the latest, fastest wireless technology. It would be more realistic to see Apple stick with Qualcomm for the Pro line than include the C1 -- but I suspect a C2 is coming. According to MacRumors, the Wi-Fi 7 compatibility could be provided by a separate dedicated chip designed by Apple. These aren't the only iPhone 17 Pro rumors we're tracking, but right now they're the ones that have me looking at my calendar and wishing September could arrive just a little faster.

iPhone 17 Pro could get a huge unexpected design change — what we know
A major external change could be coming to the iPhone 17 Pro, claims leaker MajinBu, citing "direct sources among case manufacturers." That change will be the Apple logo moving lower down the phone, further away from the vertical center. It's a notable event since the last time this happened was with the iPhone X in 2017, which redesigned several elements of the iPhone and moved the logo a little off-center for a better sense of balance. Given the rumors the iPhone 17 Pro will feature a larger camera block, it seems likely this would be the cause of the moving logo. The new block seemingly spans the whole width of the phone, rather than just the corner where the camera lenses live. MajinBu only makes one mention of the iPhone 17 Pro Max, but between this and a later tweet we'll look at below, it seems that both the Pro and the Pro Max will get the new logo position. The article doesn't discuss the iPhone 17 or iPhone 17 Air either, although both of these have unique designs compared to the Pro models, so may not receive this alteration. MajinBu continues to explain how the logo's new home may have consequences for the iPhone 17 Pro's MagSafe magnet locations. As a result, casemakers, especially ones making transparent cases that highlight the logo specifically, are apparently keeping a close eye on what's happening, holding off on manufacturing to be on the safe side. We saw possible solutions in a later MajinBu X post, which showed how the ring of aligning magnets could lose a section around the logo. Get instant access to breaking news, the hottest reviews, great deals and helpful tips. The original article also suggests that manufacturers are looking into modular designs to ensure that, which ever way things are laid out, users can get the best possible experience. We can assume that Apple will keep quiet about its new iPhones for 2025 until the usual launch window in early September. But the rumors aren't going to stop in the meantime, so check our iPhone 17, iPhone 17 Air, iPhone 17 Pro and iPhone 17 Pro Max hubs for the latest info from the leak-o-sphere.
