It will still be a while before the next iPhone appears. But thanks to rumors, we already know which functions the iPhone 17 pro will have. We put them together for you.
In any case, the iPhone 17 Pro will have these 8 functions
We still have to wait until September 2025 to have the iPhone 17 in our hands, but the rumors already tell us a lot about the various functions. Are you already curious about what you can expect from the next iPhone? These are 8 features of the iPhone 17 Pro that are rumored to be coming.
Aluminum frame
The iPhone 17 Pro and the iPhone 17 Pro Max will have an aluminum frame. This is striking, because the iPhone 15 and the iPhone 16 Pro both have a titanium frame. The iPhone 14 Pro (and previous devices) had a steel frame. The back will also be partly made of aluminum and partly made of glass, according to rumors.
New camera island
The camera island on the iPhone 17 Pro will be slightly different. According to rumors, the camera island will have the shape of a kind of rectangle.
New chip
A new iPhone naturally also requires a new chip. The iPhone 17 Pro is expected to have the A19 Pro chip. Not much is known yet about the features of this chip, but it will probably be faster and more economical.
WiFi 7
According to rumors, at least one of the new iPhones will get WiFi 7. This chip will not be made by Broadcom, but by Apple itself.
24-megapixel front camera
With the next iPhone, the front camera will receive an update in every model. This will then go from 12 megapixels to 24 megapixels.
Improved 48 megapixel camera
The camera on the back also gets a boost. The iPhone 17 will have a 48-megapixel main camera, an ultra-wide-angle camera and a tetraprism lens. It is the first time that an iPhone has three 48-megapixel cameras.
More working memory
The rumors first said that only the iPhone 17 Pro Max will have 12 GB of RAM. But the iPhone 17 Pro will probably also be equipped with more RAM. This should provide a performance boost for Apple Intelligence.
Smaller Dynamic Island
This change will probably only come to the iPhone 17 Pro Max, but according to rumors the Dynamic Island will be a bit smaller. This is due to a new lens used for Face ID.
