Your iPhone is a beloved object for thieves. And according to rumors, Apple now comes with a product that makes stealing an iPhone easier.
New product from Apple ensures that your iPhone can be stolen more easily
Are you in a place where there are many people? Then it is regularly warned that thieves are active. It is then smart to keep a close eye on your valuables, such as your iPhone. It then helps to put your device away in a bag or a closed jacket pocket.
However, Apple comes with a new product that the opposite does, according to Majin BU on X (former Twitter). This account regularly shares rumors that were regularly true afterwards.
According to rumors, Apple comes with a kind of shoulder strap in different colors. This shoulder strap is made for the new iPhone 17 covers, and with this you can wear the iPhone as a kind of small hip bag.
We admit that the straps look pretty nice. They are made of the same material according to rumors as the braided sports bands of the Apple Watch. But we also expect Apple to come up with a silicone version.
However, we have the way in which you attach the shoulder strap to your iPhone. The entire tire is magnetic. You can therefore magnetic your iPhone to the shoulder strap.
Compare it a bit with Magsafe, on which your iPhone (and other devices) clicks. Rumors also think that this new shoulder strap will work with other Apple products, such as the AirPods Pro 2.
It is a smart and easy system to bring your iPhone. And together with the new iPhone covers, it must also look nice too. But it probably also makes it a lot easier for thieves to grace your iPhone. And that just doesn’t seem to us to be the intention.
It remains to be seen how well the shoulder strap will click the iPhone in real life. Perhaps Apple still has an extra surprise in store. According to rumors, the bands appear after the iPhone 17-keynote.
