iPhone 17 Pro Machined Parts Leak Reflects Camera Redesign Rumors

[Applɘ Aꙅylum]

The new iPhone 17 with the Pixelesque bar look?


My thoughts on the new design: 👎

If the phone looks like that I predict worst selling iphone to date

No matter how it looks, i still love it.

I don't understand the camera bumps. Why not make the back flat and use the extra space for more battery? The iPhone Air could be for people to want super thin phones.

This is not a cellphone chassis. No clue what it is, but cellphone components can’t go in there.

The extra space would be awesome for a small screen that you can use to film yourself with the back camera.

It would be great for content creators.

That’s what I’m thinking they’ll use it for— a digital mirror perhaps?

Think it is the final design. Don't hate it. Now waiting to hear about the colors on the Pro models this year.

Every redesign everyone says how hideous it’s going to be.

Every redesign after launch everyone says how gorgeous it is.

1. That’s clearly tooling
2. You can go with the opposite of what prosser says and be correct 90% of the time

If the now rumored Ultra is a rugged design could these be actual phone bodies for that?

The biggest upgrade will be the display. Higher refresh rate, brightness, thinner bezels. And you'll like USB-C too.

The only thing I gained from the switch to usb-c was the ability to spend money on a bunch of new charging cords. 😡

Perhaps the pundits should use disappearing ink so whenever a guesstimate is wrong and we look back, there is no evidence they ever said that.

I guess the delete key will suffice....

same. I may grab the 16 Pro if there's a good deal on them when this is released or wait another year.

I may grab a 16PM and settle with that for a year or 2, or get a battery replacement for my 15PM and keep buying skins to change the color and give my device a new look.
