iPhone 17 Pro Leak Rundown: New Design, Bigger Battery, and 8K Video
The iPhone 17 Pro announces itself with a whole series of technical and optical innovations – a total of 14 peered potential greater changes so far indicated that Apple wants to noticeably upgrade the upcoming generation.
What should change in Apple’s top model
Autumn is getting closer and thus also the presentation of the new iPhone generation. More precisely: the iPhone 17 Pro and its larger brother, the iPhone 17 Pro Max, the two new Apple flagship models. Even if Apple is silent as always, numerous details are already circulating that give a first impression where the journey is going.
New design, well -known line
An interesting list with the most likely changes now comes from that Online magazine Macrumors and they look as follows: purely externally, the upcoming Pro models could clearly stand out from the predecessor. Initial indications indicate an aluminum frame – a step back to a lighter material after Apple has set Titan in recent years.
The back is said to consist of a new combination of aluminum and glass. Striking also: the camera huck, for years a integral part of the iPhone design, apparently becomes even more present – large, rectangular, with rounded corners. The arrangement of the lenses should remain triangular. The Apple logo on the back could also get a new position-slightly downstream, presumably due to changes to the Magsafe magnetic structure. If you like it a little more playful in terms of color, you can look forward to a new variant in Himmelblau – a bond at the current MacBook Air.
Camera and processor
The new A19 Pro-Chip then works under the hood, manufactured in the modern 3-nanometer process. As usual, there should be more power with better energy efficiency – however, large jumps are not to be expected. According to current speculations, the chip is supported by a full 12 GB RAM – a plus of 4 GB compared to the iPhone 16 Pro.
In terms of connectivity, Wi-Fi 7 is likely to move in and this is solved for the first time with a chip developed by Apple himself instead of a solution from Broadcom. The battery capacity is also increased: the iPhone 17 Pro Max could be a little thicker to make room for a larger battery. In keeping with this, there should be faster wireless charging speeds with a new generation of Magsafe. For heat problems, Apple allegedly has a new cooling system in the hindquarters. A new cooling construction should ensure better heat dissipation-a technique that is otherwise more known from gaming smartphones.
Camera upgrade with 8k and dual video mode
Special attention is once again true of the camera. According to Leaks, the front camera receives a clear upgrade to 24 megapixels, i.e. twice as much as with the current iPhone 16 models. On the back, a 48-megapixel telephoto camera is expected-so far it has ended with 12 megapixels. A real highlight could be the new function for simultaneous video recording with front and back camera – a feature that is particularly exciting for content creators. 8k videos are also in the room again: supposedly Apple already tested this function on the iPhone 16 Pro, but held it back. With the new sensors and the full 48 megapixel capacity, the introduction now seems more likely than ever.
iPhone 17 Pro – new features and changes
1 Newly positioned Apple logo The logo on the back should sit below-possibly due to changes to the Magsafe system.
2 Faster wireless charging with new Magsafe version Apple apparently plans to improve Magsafe charging technology with higher charging speeds.
3 aluminum frames instead of Titan to Titan on the iPhone 15/16 Pro, Apple supposedly returns to the lighter aluminum.
4 Part-aluminum, partial glass back The back is said to consist of a combination of these two materials-a design renewal.
5 rectangular camera hucking with rounded corners The camera fawn grows and changes its shape slightly, but remains with the triangular arrangement of the lenses.
6 new color: sky blue a new color option, inspired by the current MacBook Air.
7 larger battery in the iPhone 17 Pro Max The larger model becomes thicker to enable more battery capacity.
8 A19 Pro-Chip The new Apple processor is to be manufactured in the 3NM process and offer more efficiency and performance.
9 Apple’s own Wi-Fi 7 chip instead of Broadcom technology supposedly relies on a self-developed chip for faster WLAN connections.
10 24-megapixel front camera double resolution compared to the previous generation-for selfies and video calls.
11 48 megapixel telephoto camera on the back a clear camera upgrade, especially for zoom recordings.
12 Dual video recording with the front and back camera at the same time ideal for vlogger- the camera app should be able to absorb both perspectives at the same time.
13 8K video recording a long-awaited function that could now become a reality with improved cameras and chips.
14 12 GB RAM More RAM for better multitasking and AI functions – a plus of 4 GB compared to the iPhone 16 Pro.
There are still rumors
Apple is expected to show what will become a reality in September. Until then, there is a lot of speculation – but the large number and consistency of the leaks indicate that the Pro models of the iPhone 17 develop significantly. Whether the upgrade is worthwhile will also depend on the price, whether something changes is still unclear. And traditionally, Apple traditionally reveals it at the very end.
