iPhone 17 Pro (Max) Design

The release of the iPhone 17 Pro and the iPhone 17 Pro Max is coming! Due to rumors, there is now much clear about the next generation of the iPhone. It is expected that both the iPhone 17 Pro and the iPhone 17 Pro Max will get a new design. The camera island around the lenses is much larger. Where that is a square island with the iPhone 16 Pro (Max), it takes up the entire wide at the iPhone 17 Pro (Max).

The back of the iPhone 17 Pro and the iPhone 17 Pro Max therefore gets an adapted design. These will be the first iPhones with an elongated camera island, but that is not the only change. The iPhone 17 series is traditionally equipped with an Apple logo on the back, but it is placed more down to the Pro models. This is what the new design of the iPhone 17 Pro (Max) looks like:

Glass and aluminum housing

The design of the iPhone 17 Pro and the iPhone 17 Pro Max consists of several materials. Apple will say goodbye to the Titanium housing in the Pro models in 2025, instead the new iPhones are made of aluminum. According to rumors, the larger camera island is manufactured from aluminum, the rest of the rear consists of glass. The iPhone 16 Pro (Max) also have a glass back.

The glass element in the housing of the iPhone 17 Pro (MAX) makes wireless charging possible. With aluminum materials you cannot charge a phone wirelessly, so Magsafe would also be missing. This also explains why Apple chooses to place the logo more downwards. The Apple logo is on the iPhone 17 Pro and the iPhone 17 Pro Max in the middle of the glass element.

Release of the iPhone 17 Pro (Max)

Apple adjusts the design of the iPhone for the first time in years. The iPhone 17 Pro and the iPhone 17 Pro Max get a new design at the rear, with a larger camera island of aluminum and a glass element for wireless charging. At the front we also see small changes, because the phone gets thinner edges. The iPhone 17 Pro Max may have a more compact Dynamic Island, giving you more space on your screen.

The iPhone 17 Pro and the iPhone 17 Pro Max appear in September. That month, Apple presents the new iPhones and Apple Watches from 2025.
