iPhone 17 Pro Max just shown off in hands-on video — and there's a big design trade-off
Most of the rumors around the next iPhone models have focused on the thinner, lighter iPhone 17 Air. And that's logical — it's the shiny new toy. But let's get back to one of the traditional iPhone models, the iPhone 17 Pro Max. Apple isn't forgetting the top-of-the-line model, and you probably shouldn't either. The iPhone 17 Pro Max is rumored to feature a new rear camera design with a 48MP telephoto camera, a front 24MP camera and dual video recording in the camera app — so you'll be able to shoot with the front and rear cameras at the same time. The flagship may also get vapor chamber cooling for better sustained performance and 12GB of RAM. But it appears there's a trade-off for these new goodies. A new dummy unit leak from Majin Bu on X (via 9To5Mac) shows off a much thicker phone than we're used to from Apple, especially with the phones trending towards cutting the fat. iPhone 17 Pro is beautiful 28, 2025 According to a social media video, the dummy iPhone 17 Pro Max appears to be thicker than the popular iPhone 16 Pro Max. Here's the size of each device (though remember, this is a dummy unit and the dimensions could change when the phone launches): Get instant access to breaking news, the hottest reviews, great deals and helpful tips. That's about half a millimeter thicker. While it's not much in the grand scheme of things, it shows that Apple isn't only concerned about making the thinnest, lightest phone possible. People who buy the Pro Max models (myself included) tend to prioritize the largest screen and the best features, and size isn't a significant concern. Most likely, Apple wants to cram as much battery as possible into its high-end phone, and making it even less than a millimeter thicker should allow it to offer a little more capacity, which will directly translate to more extended periods between charges and could certainly cement its place as one of the best phones. While Bu has a decent track record of Apple leaks (he correctly predicted the iPhone 16e name change, for example), you should still take this leak with a grain of salt, as nothing has been confirmed by Apple yet. We likely won't hear anything official about the iPhone 17 series until September, when the company is expected to unveil its next iPhone upgrades.

iPhone 18 is likely to get under-display Face ID: Details
Apple is currently preparing to launch the iPhone 17 series in September 2025. While we are awaiting the new iPhone launch, rumours surrounding next year's iPhone 18 models have started to circulate over the internet. Reportedly, the iPhone 18 models could go through major design refinements in the coming years, and one of them is the integration of under-display Face ID. Since last year, we have been hearing rumours about all-screen iPhones. First, it was speculated for iPhone 17 Pro models, and now the under-display Face ID technology is rumoured for the iPhone 18 series. Therefore, if you have been waiting for a worthy iPhone upgrade, then know what the iPhone 18 series has to offer. A tipster who goes by the name Digital Chat Station shared a post on the Chinese social media platform, Weibo, highlighting that the iPhone 18 series could come with Face ID technology, which will be placed under the screen. Therefore, instead of Dynamic Island, we may see a small single-hole-punch camera over the display. It was also highlighted that the iPhone 19 series could come with a full-screen display, which means the screen will have no cutouts or interruptions since the camera and Face ID will be based under the display. While the leak gives hope for greater display upgrades for upcoming iPhones. However, the tipster did not highlight the name for any specific iPhone model. As of now, we expect that only Pro models may get such advanced upgrades, considering the previous Apple launch trends and strategies. However, it should be noted that it's too early to make an assumption about devices launching in 2026 and 2027. With the time frame, Apple could make several changes, or integrating such technologies could also come with several challenges. Therefore, take the rumours with a grain of salt. As of now, Apple is all set to debut the iOS 19 update at the June 9 WWDC event. Then, later in September, we will see the new iPhone 17 series, which may also surprise us with the new ultra-slim model.

iPhone 18 tipped to hide Face ID below the screen — what we know
We've been hearing a lot about Apple's plans for the iPhone 18, and the state of Face ID once the phone actually goes on sale. Now another rumor has repeated a lot of what we've already heard, promising that Face ID hardware will all go under the display in 2026 for the first time in an iPhone. This news comes from Digital Chat Station over on Weibo, citing sources in the supply chain. The leaker claims that the first big change is to the rear of the iPhone 17, which we've already seen in renders and dummy models. So expect the extended camera bar on the iPhone 17 Pro, Pro max and Air models. The leaker goes on to claim Face ID will be heading under the screen next year, leaving a single hole-punch camera on the display. And then 2027 may then see the camera follow suit, leaving the iPhone 19 (or 20) with a totally uninterrupted display. DCS doesn't go into any more details about which iPhone models in the 18 family will get these changes. My guess is that, at the very least, the Pro models will be first in line with the non-Pros waiting another year. This year's iPhone 17 redesigns are all over the internet at this point, and it seems as though those changes are locked in — for better or worse. We've also heard plenty of rumors about the 20th anniversary iPhone, and how it's going to change. Recent rumors have tipped the phone to get a totally uninterrupted display with the selfie camera disappearing under the screen. Apple has also been slowly hiding Face ID hardware under the screen over the past few years, reducing the size of the notch and the screen cutout in the process. So pushing the final traces of hardware under the screen is the next logical step, and it's been rumored for quite some time now. Get instant access to breaking news, the hottest reviews, great deals and helpful tips. Whether it happens next year or 2027 doesn't really matter, assuming Apple is aiming for the true-full-screen display by the 20th anniversary launch. We won't know for sure until much closer to the time, but in the meantime we still have this year's iPhone releases to look forward to. Be sure to check out our iPhone 17, iPhone 17 Air, iPhone 17 Pro and iPhone 17 Pro Max hubs for all the latest news and rumors on the upcoming phones.

iPhone 17 Pro launch soon: 3 reasons that make it stand out from the rest
Over the past few years, we have seen similar-looking iPhones with smaller upgrades. While we have been waiting to see something fresh, Apple has been working on something new for the upcoming models. Reportedly, this year, the iPhone 17 Pro models will likely get significant design changes. These changes will likely make the new generation model look different from previous Pro models. Therefore, buying an iPhone 17 Pro model could provide users with a slightly new experience with a different design and upgraded features. To get a greater understanding, we have listed three major iPhone 17 Pro design features that make it worth the wait. Here's everything you need to know ahead of the September launch. Also read: iPhone 18 Pro likely to ditch Dynamic Island for under-display Face ID- Details New camera module: Instead of the square-shaped camera module, Apple has made some changes to the iPhone 17 Pro rear camera design. With the new-gen, Apple has integrated an expanded camera bar that takes up the entire top section of the rear panel. While the camera placement remains the same, the LiDAR scanner, flash, and microphone have been pushed to the right corner of the camera module. This gives the iPhone 17 Pro a slightly different look in comparison to the previous generation. Also read: iPhone 17 Air likely to come with optional accessories for lasting battery life- Details New rear panel design and materials: Over the past two years, Apple has been bringing stainless steel and titanium build for the Pro model. However, with the iPhone 17 Pro, Apple is bringing back the aluminium body. It is expected that the entire rear panel of the smartphone could feature aluminium with a glass window for wireless charging. Therefore, no titanium frame for this year's model. This change may have a significant impact on smartphones' weight and thickness. Vapour chamber cooling system: Lastly, the iPhone 17 Pro model is expected to feature a vapour chamber cooling system to improve the thermal performance of the smartphone. This new addition could bring several benefits, such as better performance, ease in multitasking or gaming, faster charging, and more while keeping the smartphone cool. While this is not a new technology in the market, it could be a great addition to the iPhone 17 Pro models. Also read: iPhone 17 Pro may not come with anti-reflective display coating as Samsung- Details This year, the iPhone 17 Pro is slated for major camera upgrades. Reportedly, it could feature a 24MP selfie camera and a new 48MP telephoto lens. The smartphone is expected to be powered by the A19 Pro chip, but with an upgraded 12GB RAM. We can also get a new Wi-Fi chip or 5G modem similar to the iPhone 16e model.
