  • According to tipster Fixed Focus Digital, the new frame design may feature a sloped connection between the body and back shell, enhancing user comfort.

  • The iPhone 17 Pro Max is expected to launch in September 2025, adhering to Apple's tradition of fall releases.

  • A notable design change includes a larger 'rectangular' camera bump on the Pro models, which will be made from aluminum instead of glass.

  • Leaks suggest a shift in the camera module design to an 'elongated oval shape,' moving away from the traditional rectangular form.

  • The iPhone 17 Pro Max is likely to feature a 6.6-inch OLED display with 120Hz ProMotion technology, similar to its Pro predecessors.

  • Recent design changes are seen as necessary to boost sales, particularly as the iPhone 16 Pro has not met expectations.

  • With the launch of the iPhone 17 series, Apple will be competing against the upcoming Samsung Galaxy S25 Slim, which is also set to debut in 2025.

  • The anticipated return of curved sides, last seen in the iPhone 6, could improve grip and overall user experience.

  • The display is expected to be protected by an anti-reflective coating and a ceramic shield, ensuring durability.

  • Powering the device will be the new A19 Pro chip, built on TSMC's advanced 3nm process, potentially paired with up to 12GB of RAM for enhanced AI capabilities.

  • All information regarding the iPhone 17 Air is based on leaks and rumors, and should be approached with caution.
