iPhone 17 colorways leak too
Yesterday the upcoming iPhone 17 Air's colorways leaked, and today it's time for the 'vanilla' iPhone 17 to get the same treatment. And while it will be offered in more colors than its thinner cousin, unfortunately this leak doesn't come with full-on renders depicting each hue.
We do however have what seem to be replacement camera rings for it, which showcase the five colors in which the iPhone 17 will allegedly arrive: blue, silver, black, green, and purple. The transparent ring isn't meant for a transparent iPhone 17, that's not happening, it's just another option for those who'd like the transparent look on their device.
While these are said to be the iPhone 17's launch colors, it's possible that Apple may release an additional one or two down the line. For comparison, note that the iPhone 16 comes in black, white, pink, teal, and "Ultramarine". So it's still five colorways, just different ones (aside from black).
The iPhone 17 will be by far the lowest-end of the four models launching in September, with the A19 non-Pro chip, and possibly stuck at 8GB of RAM like its predecessor despite all three other models coming with the A19 Pro and 12GB of RAM. It will however have one more camera compared to the iPhone 17 Air, and a bigger battery. Apple iPhone 16 128GB 8GB RAM € 779.00

ITC will ban iPhones with BOE displays from being sold in the US
Apple likely won't be able to sell iPhones with BOE displays in the US due to a preliminary ruling by the US International Trade Commission (ITC) that the Chinese display maker infringed on Samsung Display's trade secrets on OLED panels. The ITC ruling includes two orders – a limited exclusion order and a cease and desist order. The first prevents Apple from importing infringing iPhones into the US. The latter prohibits Apple from using existing inventory and further production or sales activities. This hasn't come into effect yet – the import ban is expected to kick in with the final ruling in November. ETNews, which has been following the suit, reports that preliminary rulings are rarely overturned. After November, there is a two-month period during which President Trump will be able to veto the final ruling. Apple sources components from multiple manufacturers, e.g. iPhone displays are made by Samsung, LG and BOE. BOE typically makes the non-ProMotion displays on vanilla phones – in fact, it supplied the majority of iPhone 16e displays. However, @Jukanlosreve recently reported that Apple has approved BOE display panels for iPhone 17 Pro phones that will be exclusively sold in China. Of course, ITC's ban has no influence on sales in China, but it may have affected how Apple distributes production quotas between its display suppliers. Also, the future iPhone Fold is safe, since it will use Samsung Display panels. Besides the ITC suit, Samsung Display filed a suit with the US District Court for the Eastern District of Texas seeking compensation for lost operating profit plus punitive damages over BOE's infringement.

Apple Watch quietly unlocks powerful health feature in more countries
Apple's health-focused features are now expanding with the rollout of sleep apnea detection on Apple Watch to Australian users. A new watchOS update is bringing the feature to users in Australia. Sleep apnea detection is a data-driven respiratory monitoring feature, and is available for the Apple Watch Series 9, Series 10, and the Apple Watch Ultra 2. This new feature joins a growing suite of health tools on Apple Watch that are already available in over 150 countries and regions: the US, EU, and Japan. Apple's "Sleep Apnea Notifications" feature relies on the timepiece's accelerometer and tracks subtle wrist movements, which it tags as Breathing Disturbances. It gauges interruptions in breathing patterns. Sleep apnea detection. | Image Credit - Apple Every night, these readouts are collected and combined, and then they are visible in the Health app on your iPhone. Elevated breathing disturbances are flagged over a 30-day check period. Apple says that the feature uses machine learning models trained with nearly 4,000 nights of clinical-grade sleep data, which was collected from over 2,100 participants. Meanwhile, a validation study confirmed that the people that the sleep apnea algorithm identified all had at least mild sleep apnea. Basically, you will receive a notification if your Apple Watch detects consistent signs of moderate or severe sleep apnea. Sleep apnea is a common condition in which your breathing may stop and restart many times during your sleep. This can cause you not to get enough oxygen. The notification you may get from your Apple Watch will give you information about the period when it happened. Of course, as with any health-related Apple Watch (or other Watches too) feature at the moment, it is not to be used for a diagnostic tool, and always, when you have doubts about your health, you should seek medical advice. I personally think that adding sleep apnea detection to the Apple Watch is a really meaningful upgrade. It's impressive how far wearables have come: from counting steps to now potentially flagging serious sleep conditions. I love seeing tech being used in ways that support long-term health, not just fitness tracking. Secure your connection now at a bargain price!

Apple's latest move is one Trump will probably love
Back when President Donald Trump took office, he called on Apple to start making iPhones in the US. That pressure hasn't let up and earlier this year, Apple responded with a massive pledge – $500 billion to expand its US presence. Fast forward to now, and while iPhones aren't moving stateside, Apple is putting its money into American soil – literally. The Cupertino giant just announced a fresh $500 million commitment with MP Materials, which happens to be the only rare earth producer in the US that handles everything from mining to processing. The multiyear deal means Apple is now locked into buying American-made rare earth magnets, built at MP Materials' Independence facility in Fort Worth, is not all, though. The two companies are also teaming up to build a next-gen rare earth recycling plant out in Mountain Pass, California. On top of that, they will be developing new magnet materials and tech to boost performance. – Tim Cook, Apple's CEO, July 15, 2025 Apple and MP will be decking out the Texas factory with high-end neodymium magnet manufacturing lines, built specifically for Apple gear like iPhones, iPads, and Macs. Once the new systems are up and running, MP Materials is expected to ramp up its total production big time. These US-made magnets will be shipped both across the country and globally, helping meet growing demand for this key material. The first shipments should roll out in 2027, eventually powering hundreds of millions of Apple devices.

As for the new recycling facility in California, it will take in rare earth materials pulled from old electronics and industrial waste, then reprocess them to be used again in Apple products. Apple and MP have been testing out this advanced recycling tech for nearly five years and it's been successful enough to meet Apple's strict performance and design standards. Apple is actually no stranger to recycled rare earths – it was the first to use them in consumer electronics back in 2019 with the iPhone 11's Taptic Engine. Today, nearly all Apple magnets are made using 100% recycled materials. But beyond going green, there's a big geopolitical angle here, too. Rare earth materials are critical for pretty much all modern tech – phones, TVs, electric vehicle batteries, wind turbines, LED lights, you name it. The catch? China dominates the game. While rare earths aren't actually rare (they are found throughout the Earth's crust), they are super hard and expensive to process. China holds the keys to almost all of the equipment needed to process them and currently controls a whopping 92% of the world's rare earth refining. So yeah, this Apple–MP Materials deal isn't just about sourcing locally – it's also a big strategic move. It gives Apple a stronger domestic supply chain and fits in nicely with the company's push to use more recycled materials, a plan it was working on long before Trump stepped in. Still, sourcing these materials in the US might mean slightly higher prices down the road, so future Apple products could cost a bit more, and I bet the company would use this local sourcing as a reason. As for bringing full iPhone manufacturing to the US? Still a long shot. It would mean blowing up the global supply chain that Apple's spent years perfecting. But this rare earth commitment? That's a solid win for American manufacturing and one I believe Trump's definitely going to point to. Secure your connection now at a bargain price!
