iPhone 17 Pro- 14 New features expected to come
Aluminium frame: The iPhone X through iPhone 14 Pro models have a stainless steel frame, while the iPhone 15 Pro and iPhone 16 Pro models have titanium frames. Rumour has it that the iPhone 17 Pro models will have aluminium frames. A new "part-aluminium, part-glass" design will reportedly be on the devices' backs.
Rectangular camera bump: A sizable, rectangular camera hump with rounded corners is anticipated on iPhone 17 Pro versions. Apple intends to continue using a triangle for the rear camera lenses.
Sky Blue finish: The iPhone 17 Pro variants will reportedly be offered in a Sky Blue hue, just like the most recent MacBook Air.
Greater battery capacity: There are rumours that the iPhone 17 Pro Max will have a slightly thicker body to accommodate a larger battery.
Apple's next-generation A19 Pro chip, which is anticipated to be produced using TSMC's more recent third-generation 3nm technology, is expected to be used in iPhone 17 Pro variants. You may expect slight power economy and performance improvements over the current iPhones.
Wi-Fi 7 chip created by Apple: It is rumoured that Apple, not Broadcom, will provide the Wi-Fi 7 chip for all four iPhone 17 versions.
24-megapixel front camera: All iPhone 16 models have a 12-megapixel front-facing camera, whereas all four iPhone 17 models are rumoured to have an enhanced 24-megapixel camera.
48-megapixel rear-facing telephoto camera: Rumour has it that the iPhone 17 Pro models will get a 48-megapixel telephoto camera instead of the 12-megapixel one found on the iPhone 16 Pro models.
Dual video recording: The iPhone 17 Pro and iPhone 17 Pro Max will enable users to concurrently record video with the front and rear cameras using the Camera app, according to Jon Prosser of the Front Page Tech YouTube channel.
8K video recording: Although it is still unavailable, Apple is said to have tested 8K video recording on the iPhone 16 Pro models. It's possible that 8K video recording will debut on the iPhone 17 Pro versions, which are anticipated to include a fully 48-megapixel rear camera.
12GB of RAM: Rumour has it that the iPhone 17 Pro and possibly the iPhone 17 Air will have 12GB of RAM. Multitasking and Apple Intelligence performance should both be enhanced by this update. 8GB of RAM is a feature shared by all four iPhone 16 versions.
Better cooling: It is rumoured that internal design modifications in all four iPhone 17 variants would improve heat dissipation. There have been rumours about a vapour chamber cooling technology, particularly for the Pro models.
Repositioned Apple logo: Compared to earlier generations, the iPhone 17 Pro models may have a lower placement for Apple's logo on the rear.
Quicker MagSafe charging: With a new iteration of Apple's MagSafe Charger, iPhone 17 Pro models might have quicker MagSafe wireless charging speeds.
iPhone 17 Pro expected price
The base model from the series will cost AED 3799 in Dubai, $799 in the US, and Rs 79,999 in India. In contrast, the iPhone 17 Air will likely retail for Rs 89,999 in India and $899 in the US.

Foxconn second quarter revenue rises 15.82% on year
Taiwan's Foxconn , the world's largest contract electronics maker, reported record second-quarter revenue on strong demand for artificial intelligence products but cautioned about geopolitical and exchange rate headwinds. Revenue for Apple 's biggest iPhone assembler jumped 15.82% year-on-year to T$1.797 trillion, Foxconn said in a statement on Saturday, beating the T$1.7896 trillion LSEG SmartEstimate, which gives greater weight to forecasts from analysts who are more consistently accurate. Robust AI demand led to strong revenue growth for its cloud and networking products division, said Foxconn, whose customers include AI chip firm Nvidia. Smart consumer electronics, which includes iPhones, posted 'flattish' year-on-year revenue growth affected by exchange rates, it said. June revenue roses 10.09% on year to T$540.237 billion, a record high for that month. Foxconn said it anticipates growth in this quarter from the previous three months and from the same period last year but cautioned about potential risks to growth. "The impact of evolving global political and economic conditions and exchange rate changes will need continued close monitoring," it said without elaborating. U.S. President Donald Trump said he had signed letters to 12 countries outlining the various tariff levels they would face on goods they export to the United States, with the "take it or leave it" offers to be sent out on Monday. The Chinese city of Zhengzhou is home to the world's largest iPhone manufacturing facility, operated by Foxconn. The company, formally called Hon Hai Precision Industry, does not provide numerical forecasts. It will report full second quarter earnings on August 14. Foxconn's shares jumped 76% last year, far outperforming the 28.5% rise for the Taiwan market, but are down 12.5% so far this year, reflecting broader pressure on tech stocks rattled by Trump's tumultuous trade policy. The stock closed down 1.83% on Friday ahead of the revenue data release, compared with a 0.73% drop for the benchmark index.

Nvidia stock is on a tear. This ‘next big thing' can drive more gains.
Nvidia stock has been a gift that keeps on giving for investors in recent years—and robots are the sort of underrated attraction that could keep the rally going. The shares rose 1.3% Thursday, giving the company a market capitalization of $3.89 trillion—just short of the record $3.195 trillion market cap reached by Apple on Dec.26, 2024. The stock's rise will be on pause at least until Monday as U.S. markets are closed Friday for the Fourth of July holiday. CEO Jensen Huang has frequently touted robots as the next big thing, and last month the company unveiled a new humanoid bot called AEON, which it built in collaboration with Swedish industrial tech company Hexagon. It isn't just something for science fiction fans—shareholders should take a look at robots, too. Huang said at a conference in Paris last month that humanoid robotics would 'potentially be one of the largest industries ever." Analysts polled by FactSet are expecting annual revenue for Nvidia's automotive and robotics division, which also includes self-driving cars, to jump to $7.55 billion by the start of the 2030s, up from $1.70 billion last fiscal year. They'll likely start raising those forecasts if it starts looking like Huang's bullish prediction will come true. There were some signs earlier this year that the rally could peter out, with Huang warning about the U.S. government's 'deeply painful" curbs on semiconductor exports to China, but shares have rebounded since the market got over the worst of its tariff fears. They're now up 19% in 2025, which has helped Nvidia reclaim the title of the world's most valuable company and put it on the brink of a $4 trillion market capitalization. History suggests the stock will now take a breather: It rises just 4% on average over the third quarter, according to Dow Jones Market Data. The good news for shareholders is that the final three months of the year have tended to be Nvidia's best period, with it rising 23% on average. The stock is sitting pretty anyway, but a major breakthrough in robotics could make the outlook even better. Write to George Glover at

iPhone 17 Pro Max to feature the biggest battery ever? Fresh leak hints at major upgrades
The iPhone 17 Pro Max is without a doubt the most awaited smartphone right now. While several smartphone brands are leaning towards slimmer phones, Apple seems to be going the opposite way. A user named Instant Digital on the Chinese microblogging site Weibo has revealed some details about Apple's upcoming flagship device. Based on the latest leak, the iPhone 17 Pro Max could sport a 5,000mAh battery, which is bigger than the one on the iPhone 16 Pro Max, making it the biggest ever battery on an iPhone. This means Apple could opt for a bulky design for its top-of-the-line phone, prioritising what the users want the most – extended battery life. The iPhone 17 Pro Max is likely to have a thickness of 8.725 mm, up from 8.25 mm on the iPhone 16 Pro Max. Although the size difference may seem minute, the increased thickness might allow Apple to pack in a much bigger battery. Reportedly, the new device will also offer battery life of up to 35 hours. This can also be attributed to the A19 Pro chip's efficiency gains, which means that the iPhone 17 Pro could last longer than the current Pro Max model. The iPhone 17 Pro is anticipated to have the same size as its predecessors, which means the upcoming phone may have the same battery capacity as the current gen model. Moreover, the iPhone 17 Pro and iPhone 17 Pro Max are likely to have 6.3-inch and 6.9-inch OLED panels, which is the same size as their predecessors. Regarding the Pro models, Apple may be considering switching from titanium to aluminium in order to increase durability. According to reports, the iPhone 17 Pro and iPhone 17 Pro Max would include a horizontally aligned camera island that spans the width of the phone. It is anticipated that other models in the series will also adopt the redesigned camera island.
