Key details of Apple iPhone 17 Pro leaked online

It has just only been a few months since the launch of Apple iPhone 16 lineup and already details of new iPhone 17 Pro have been leaked online hinting at some major improvements.

According to 9to5Mac, Apple is planning to make design changes as well as plans to ditch titanium, square camera array and all-glass back.

The report claims that Apple’s 2025 Pro models will feature aluminum frames, just like the base models.

Last year, the company made the switch from stainless steel to titanium for its Pro models, while regular and SE models stuck with aluminum side rails.

The company is planning to replace full-glass back with an updated part-aluminum, while the upper part of the back will consist of a larger rectangular camera island made of aluminum instead of 3D glass.

The lower half will be made of glass to retain wireless charging support.

Titanium was one of the key upgrades in the recent Pro models, which is why it’s surprising that Apple is considering aluminum for its high-end models.

Stainless steel is more durable than aluminum but heavier, whereas titanium offers the same durability while weighing less.

Some reports also claimed titanium was causing heating issues in the iPhone 15 Pro models. Hence it is that reason and behind changing the material.
