In a few months, Apple will unveil the iPhone 17 series. After a year of rumors and gossip from around the world, there are still contradictory and last -minute leaks that leave us with suspense before official revelation.
Be that as it may, there are many reasons to expect major design changes on the iPhone 17. These are the biggest rumor changes we are planning.
Dynamic island changes
It is the most controversial rumor so far. Although at the beginning, it was expected that Apple strengthens the smaller dynamic island for the iPhone 17 pro models, the Ross Young display analyst says that the company will not make changes to this year’s models, because the iPhone manufacturer has no addition of facial identification components under the screen.
Now Weibo Leaker Digital cat station Said that Apple will present a redesigned dynamic island on each iPhone 17 model. For the moment, we do not know what the new design would look like. However, it seems that it is not software changes instead of real hardware.
Larger iPhone 17 models
After the slight increase in the size of the screens on the iPhone 16 Pro and the iPhone 16 Pro Max, rumors suggest that the iPhone 17 will include a 6.3 -inch screen and that iPhone 17 air will have a 6.6 -inch screen. Although a model more would have had a 6.9-inch screen size comparable to the current size of Pro Max, it seems that Apple decided to make this device ultra-thinly slightly smaller.
Thinner centers
Weibo Leaker digital cat station Also believes that all iPhone 17 models will have glasses as thin as those of iPhone 16 Pro models. However, it is not clear if Apple plans to offer the same display technologies on the 17 pro and base models.
For the first time since Apple has added promotion and display technologies always on Pro models, Apple plans to add these features to the basic model.
Some rumors suggest that only the promotion will make its way to the iPhone 17 instead of the AOD, or that Apple plans to add a higher static refresh rate to the basic model. However, it seems that Apple does not consider these technologies worthy of being exclusive to pro models, because it uses other features to differentiate the devices.
New materials
Apple plans to modify the materials it uses for different iPhone models. According to the latest rumors, this is what happens to new iPhones:
- iPhone 17, iPhone 17 pro and iPhone 17 pro max: Aluminum finish with glass.
- Air iPhone 17: Titanium and glass.
If these rumors are accurate, this would mean the rupture of a model introduced with the iPhone X, that is to say at that time that the high-end iPhone began to have a more “premium” finish while the basic models would have a simpler.
We will have to wait to see how Apple will explain these modifications. After all, if the company regretted using Titanium, it would not continue to use it in the air of the iPhone 17.
Camera bar
Forget the design of the cooking table on iPhone Pro models. According to rumors, the iPhone 17 Air and Pro models will make a new camera bar design. The scanner Lidar and the flash will in turn be on the right side of the camera module.
Meanwhile, it seems that the iPhone 17 of the basic model will continue to offer the same design as the iPhone 16, which makes it less attractive than the air or pro models from the design point of view.
Apple lower logo
One of the latest rumors of iPhone 17 design change has just been Leaker Majin Bu. They believe that Apple will reduce the placement of the Apple logo due to the new design of the camera bar. The leak offered a first glance with the Magsafe coil next to the new placement of the logo.
Although this does not make a huge difference, because most people put a case on their iPhone as soon as it is out of the box, it is interesting to see Apple refine this design element.
