If you\u2019re waiting to get your hands on a new iPhone 17 when the lineup launches later this year, you should probably expect to get a new design<\/a>. The new design is set to bring with it a big change in the way the camera looks, too.<\/p>\n That\u2019s according to a new report from online leaker Majin Bu<\/a> who claims to have new imagery which appears to be CAD images for the upcoming iPhone 17, ultra-thin iPhone 17 Air, the iPhone 17 Pro, and iPhone 17 Pro Max models.<\/p>\n Bu has a history of hits and misses which suggests that while this leak could be accurate, there is always the chance that it isn\u2019t as well. A sizeable chunk of salt should definitely be used here.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n MacRumors<\/a> also notes that other leakers have also suggested that these CAD images are accurate, something that could potentially add weight to the leak.<\/p>\n \u201cThe CAD renders are quite accurate,\u201d said Fixed Focus Digital. \u201cLet me add a bit more detail: The iPhone 17 Pro models will most likely use a combination of materials \u2014 specifically, a glass section for the logo area integrated into an overall metal chassis.\u201d This appears to explain the red areas on the iPhone 17 Pro models in the image. Indeed, rumors do suggest Apple plans to go with a half glass, half aluminum build, which would increase durability. The glass would allow wireless charging to continue to be available, but a partial aluminum frame would be less prone to breakage.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n It\u2019s previously been suggested that there will be support for reverse wireless charging<\/a> when the new iPhones arrive later this year, a feature that has so far been rumored for previous releases without any accuracy.<\/p>\n All eyes will be on future leaks and of course the final release to see whether these new, larger camera bumps will be present on the high-end iPhones this year.<\/p>\n You may also like to check out:<\/p>\n You can follow us on\u00a0X<\/a>, or\u00a0Instagram<\/a>, subscribe to our\u00a0YouTube channel<\/a>\u00a0and even like our\u00a0Facebook page<\/a>\u00a0to keep yourself updated on all the latest from Microsoft, Google, Apple, and the Web.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n![\"\"](\"https:\/\/cdn.redmondpie.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/image_2025-02-18_225516413.png\")
