Apple is several months away from launching the iPhone 17 series but a significant camera redesign may be on the horizon. Leaker Majin Bu has shared CAD renders of what are purported to be the iPhone 17, 17 Pro, 17 Pro Max, and the rumored iPhone 17 Air — with the latter three all featuring Pixel-like rectangular camera bars.
The new CAD renders show the rear camera bars on the iPhone 17 Pro and Pro Max models stretched to extend their currently square design, now reaching across the entire upper body. They still retain the rounder edges seen on the current models. The 17 “Air” features a similar design, albeit with only a single rear camera lens. According to these renders, the camera module on the standard iPhone 17 model will be largely unchanged, differentiating it from the premium models.
It’s early days and these leaks shouldn’t be taken as gospel. We won’t know the official iPhone 17 design until Apple reveals it later this year, with an announcement expected sometime in September.
