More details of the iPhone 17 have leaked – and one upgrade sounds particularly exciting
When you buy through links on our articles, Future and its syndication partners may earn a commission. Another batch of iPhone 17 rumors have appeared The iPhone 17 Pro Max model is tipped to get a camera upgrade It seems the SIM card slot is staying in some markets There are a lot of iPhone 17 rumors and leaks to keep up with at the moment, and the latest to catch our attention have apparently revealed some more details about the most expensive models arriving next month: the iPhone 17 Pro and the iPhone 17 Pro Max. First up, tipster Majin Bu (via GSMArena) has posted a couple of photos that supposedly shows the SIM card slot for the iPhone 17 Pro. While the iPhones have gone eSIM-only in the US, that's not the case in international markets, and it looks as though it's not going to be the case with the 2025 handsets either. Next, we've got images purporting to show the internals of the iPhone 17 Pro Max from well-known leaker Yeux1122 (via Wccftech). We can see the same metal-covered battery design used in last year's iPhone 16 Pro, which improves thermal management, and the bigger camera module that's previously been rumored. Also of note are two different battery shape designs, which are presumably for iPhones with and without physical SIM card slots. It's a sign of the accommodations Apple has to make for its phones in different markets across the world. Camera upgrades Perhaps the most exciting leak of the latest batch comes from another seasoned tipster, Setsuna Digital (via Notebookcheck), which suggests the iPhone 17 Pro Max will come with the most powerful telephoto camera we've seen yet. It's not clear if that means the most powerful telephoto camera in the iPhone series or in smartphones in general, but it's a promising potential upgrade either way. The iPhone 16 Pro Max comes equipped with a triple-lens 48MP+48MP+12MP camera on the back, with 5x optical zoom courtesy of the telephoto lens. We don't know how much the optical zoom or the megapixel count might be upgraded this year, but there's already been talk of 8x optical zoom this year, which is part of the reason for the redesign of the back of the case we're expecting. Apple might also unveil a pro-level camera app alongside the new phones. We shouldn't have too long to wait to see how accurate or otherwise these leaks are: if Apple sticks to its usual schedule, the iPhone 17 series will be announced in September, with Tuesday, September 9 the likely day and date.

iPhone 17 Pro Max just leaked ahead of Apple event — design, battery and a huge camera upgrade
A pair of recent leaks regarding the upcoming iPhone 17 Pro Max hint at potential upgrades for Apple's high-end phone, but one of them may be more realistic than the other. The more controversial leak comes from the Korean blogging platform Naver, where tipster yeux1122 posted alleged CAD renders of the Pro Max that might reveal internal components for the device, including the battery. According to images from their blog, the renders reveal the battery size and shape, a solid aluminum structure, and the location of the MagSafe magnet. Based on these images, it appears the battery will be bigger, potentially around 5,000 mAh, which would put the iPhone 17 Pro Max on par with the Samsung Galaxy S25 Ultra. The MagSafe coil in the renders looks to be in a different place compared to the iPhone 16 Pro Max, which suggests a reconfiguration of the internal layout to support new hardware like a vapor-chamber cooling system. Yeux1122, in my experience, is very hit or miss with their leaks, and I am taking this leak with a heaping spoonful of salt. One regular Apple leaker on X, Unknownz21, stated that the renders were not an Apple CAD. Another regular Apple rumormonger, ShrimpApplePro, also found the images to be problematic. 'You can tell this is just a poorly make [sic] cad by some random people, not an actual internals of the new iphone,' they posted on X. On the other hand, a fresh leak from Instant Digital on Weibo seems more credible based on their track record with rumors. Get instant access to breaking news, the hottest reviews, great deals and helpful tips. They recently hinted that the iPhone 17 Pro Max will feature a new telephoto camera (via Android Headlines), making it one of the 'most powerful telephoto' lenses on the market. Reportedly, the Pro Max could feature a massive 8x optical zoom, a big leap from the fixed 5x zoom on its predecessor. This new system would also involve a moving lens system, meaning that it could switch between different focal lengths. It would give shooters more flexibility when zooming, but also make photos at various focal lengths have better image quality. Apple is reportedly upping the resolution of the telephoto lens to 48MP. Combined with the bigger optical zoom, it could explain the redesigned and larger camera array on the next high-end iPhone. This contradicts previous rumors that the camera would only support 3.5x optical zoom and another that suggested the iPhone 17 Pro would get 8x optical zoom. This is not a settled rumor. We'll know more in September during the iPhone 17 launch event, when Apple is expected to reveal the entire iPhone 17 lineup.

Apple iPhone 17 Air could out-slim Samsung Galaxy S25 Edge at just 5.5mm: Report
As Apple gears up for its anticipated September launch event, new details have emerged about what could be its thinnest handset to date — the iPhone 17 Air. Expected to be unveiled alongside the iPhone 17, iPhone 17 Pro and iPhone 17 Pro Max, this new addition is believed to replace the current iPhone 16 Plus and offer a radically slimmer form factor. According to a report shared by well-known South Korean tipster Yeux1122 via Naver, the iPhone 17 Air may feature a mere 5.5mm thickness, making it even slimmer than Samsung's upcoming Galaxy S25 Edge, which is said to be 5.8mm thick. If true, this would make the iPhone 17 Air the slimmest iPhone Apple has ever produced. The device is also rumoured to weigh around 145 grams, offering users a lighter, more pocket-friendly design. The tipster, citing Taiwanese supply chain sources, suggests the iPhone 17 Air will carry a 2,800mAh battery — a noticeable step down compared to current models. For context, the iPhone 16 reportedly has a 3,561mAh battery, while the iPhone 16 Pro Max is equipped with a 4,685mAh cell. Even the newly leaked iPhone 16e is expected to house a 3,961mAh unit. Samsung's Galaxy S25 Edge, meanwhile, is said to offer a 3,900mAh battery. Despite the smaller capacity, Apple is reportedly turning to high-density battery technology and possibly even silicon-anode cells to make up for the reduced size. These advanced cells could provide a 15 per cent to 20 per cent improvement in energy density, potentially bridging the gap in battery life without compromising on the sleek form factor. Apple may also introduce an accessory — possibly resembling a snap-on battery case — to further address user concerns around endurance. Leaks suggest the iPhone 17 Air will likely sport a 6.6-inch OLED display, featuring a smooth 120Hz refresh rate. On the camera front, a single 48MP sensor is expected at the rear, complemented by a 24MP front-facing camera for high-quality selfies and video calls. Under the hood, the handset could be powered by either the A18 or A19 chip, depending on Apple's final configuration — both expected to deliver robust performance and energy efficiency gains. With its slim profile and premium components, the iPhone 17 Air is tipped to carry a price tag of $1,299 (around ₹ 1,09,500).

Foldable iPhone may debut with Samsung tech – that Samsung itself hasn't dared to use
A new rumor says the foldable iPhone may use a unique display panel from Samsung that Samsung itself hasn't used yet on its foldable devices. Rumors about the upcoming iPhone Fold are now starting to come up more and more from the Internet's dark corners. A new rumor now says Apple is planning to use a new, thinner display panel in the foldable iPhone 's construction, something that the supplier, Samsung, has not used on its devices itself. Understandably, the display of a foldable phone is the most important component. On top of that, Apple has some serious ambitions when it comes to this iPhone, including a rumored plan to obliterate the display crease plaguing every foldable phone today completely. It seems that this elusive iPhone's display may be very different from the ones used in other foldable phones on the market. Naver leaker "Yeux1122" now says that the Cupertino giant may be using a display that has been manufactured differently than other folding phones. Samsung has not, reportedly, used this process on its own foldables yet. According to the leaker (who has a mixed track record with some wins and some losses when it comes to reliable leaks), the key change to the display panel is related to the touch sensor. Reportedly, it will be integrated into the display. Right now, other foldable displays have the touch sensor as a separate layer, but according to the tipster, the foldable iPhone will have it in one panel. A leaked render of Samsung's Galaxy Z Fold 7. | Image Credit - OnLeaks and Android Headlines As a result, there may be a reduction of thickness by approximately 19% in comparison to the panel used in the Samsung Galaxy Z Fold models. This would also make Apple's device lighter. Meanwhile, the leaker also hints that the rumored reduced thickness in the upcoming Galaxy Z Fold 7 is due to the transitional period for developing Apple's display tech. This internal display configuration may be due to Apple being demanding and having high requirements instead of simply accepting existing, conventional technology. Reportedly, the new component is meeting Apple's demands when it comes to thickness, power-to-weight, brightness, and other requirements. But that's not all. Apparently, the color reproduction and brightness of the display panel have reportedly been improved by the new process as well. And yep, this includes higher peak brightness levels, allegedly. Foldable iPhone concept render. | Image Credit - AppleInsider It's worth noting that the tipster has had some big misses when it comes to leaks, like saying that there may be a 2TB option for the iPhone 16 Pro. Nevertheless, knowing Apple and its high demands, it could be very well true or close to the truth that Apple is looking for something that hasn't been done before when it comes to foldable displays. The tipster has previously stated that the internal screen of the phone may measure 7.76 inches with a 2,713 by 1,920 resolution. The cover display is said to be a 5.49-inch one with a 2,088 by 1,422 also previously stated that there may be an under-display camera for the folding screen and a visible punch hole camera outside. The resolution and size rumors have also been heard from other leakers, which gives some level of credibility to this information. Reports indicate Samsung may be the only supplier for foldable display panels for the foldable iPhone . Reportedly, Apple has also considered LG, but it seems it chose Samsung only this time. Meanwhile, the foldable iPhone may be an expensive phone, with potential prices ranging between $2,100 and $2,300. Right now, rumors (including from reputable sources like Ming-Chi Kuo) indicate the foldable iPhone may be officially announced sometime in late 2026. It's possible that the phone may come in early 2027 as well. Apple's first foldable iPhone may revolutionize the foldable phone market, according to some estimations. The situation right now with foldables is curious: they are not experiencing huge growth, but things are moving. We have Huawei introducing now a tri-fold device, Samsung also reportedly working on one, while companies like Oppo and Honor are aiming to make super-thin foldables. Something Samsung is said to also be working on, and it could happen earlier than expected, with the upcoming Galaxy Z Fold 7 .
