Overview

  • Hands-on dummy units shared by tipsters show a horizontal “visor” camera island spanning the full width of iPhone 17 Pro and Pro Max backs.
  • Reports indicate aluminum frames will replace stainless steel or titanium across Pro models as part of Apple’s uniform design language.
  • Images show the Apple logo repositioned lower on the rear panel to accommodate the expanded camera array.
  • Leakers report the iPhone 17 Air will pack the A19 Pro chipset—albeit with one fewer GPU core—and 12GB of RAM, narrowing the gap with higher-end models.
  • The Air model is expected in black, silver, light gold and light blue, with the full series slated for a mid-September unveiling.
