Overview

• Multiple leak sources, including Majin Bu and DuanRui, have claimed that official iPhone 17 cases will feature built-in points for attaching a lanyard.
• CAD renders shared by DuanRui depict two loop slots in the bottom corners of an alleged iPhone 17 Pro case.
• Apple has not confirmed the lanyard feature, leaving the case design changes purely speculative ahead of any official reveal.
• The proposed cutouts mirror the loop design of AirPods Pro 2 charging cases and echo the built-in strap mechanism of the fifth-generation iPod touch.
• Any lanyard accessories are expected to come from third-party vendors, following Apple’s history of outsourcing strap options for its products.
