A recent leak indicates that there are still chances that the iPhone 17 Pro might not undergo a design change like the standard iPhone 17 variant. Based on previous leaks, the iPhone 17 series have been speculated to follow a new design language. It is thought that the upcoming Apple flagship model (which might debut in September 2025) will do away with the traditional rear panel and will bring a Google Pixel-like rectangular camera bump. While it could be true for the iPhone 17 variant, the Pro models might not be tweaked that much. 

The iPhone 17 model is anticipated to debut with a vertical camera setup, but the iPhone 17 Pro might stick to its triangular one. Take a look at the rendered images of the iPhone 17 Pro.

But even with the new leak, the rear panel is anticipated to be revamped, staying true to the previous rumours. The iPhone 17 series is also expected to take a design shift from titanium to aluminium and might debut with a dual-tone rear panel. The move to aluminium could result in a lighter device, potentially enhancing user comfort during prolonged use. Additionally, aluminium is generally more cost-effective than titanium, which might influence the device's pricing strategy. 

iPhone 17 Pro: Leaked specs

The upcoming iPhone 17 Pro models are set to include Apple's next-generation A19 Pro chip, built using TSMC's cutting-edge third-generation 3nm technology. This upgrade is anticipated to bring improved power efficiency and incremental performance boosts over current iPhone models. Furthermore, one version of the iPhone 17 is rumoured to debut an Apple-designed Wi-Fi 7 chip, replacing the Broadcom components used in previous iterations.  

Both the iPhone 17 Pro and Pro Max are expected to feature 12GB of RAM, a specification previously thought to be exclusive to the Pro Max. This memory upgrade, compared to the 8GB found in all four iPhone 16 models, promises enhanced multitasking capabilities and improved support for Apple's advanced AI features. The added RAM is likely to deliver smoother performance across the board, making it a standout improvement for the Pro lineup.

Camera upgrades also take center stage in the iPhone 17 series. All models are rumoured to feature a 24-megapixel front-facing camera, a significant jump from the 12-megapixel resolution on the iPhone 16 lineup. For the Pro models, the Telephoto camera is expected to receive a substantial boost to 48 megapixels, a marked improvement over the 12-megapixel Telephoto lens on the iPhone 16 Pro. These enhancements aim to elevate both front and rear photography, offering sharper images and greater versatility.  
Another notable design change is a smaller Dynamic Island, achieved by integrating a meta lens into the Face ID system. This innovation would increase the screen-to-body ratio, providing a more immersive display experience. Altogether, the iPhone 17 Pro lineup is shaping up to deliver substantial upgrades in performance, memory, camera capabilities, and design, setting a new benchmark for Apple's flagship devices.
