Insider reveals possible iPhone 17 design with horizontal camera module

Chinese tech blogger Digital Chat Station, known for its accurate predictions, has shared renders that may show the design of the future iPhone 17. His data, allegedly obtained from the supply chain, hints at significant changes in the appearance of the device.

According to insider information, the main feature will be the horizontal orientation of the camera unit. If this is confirmed, the iPhone 17 or its Pro version will get a fundamentally new look, which, as they say, will inspire other manufacturers to borrow similar solutions.

In addition to the redesign, the Pro version of the device is expected to replace the titanium case with an aluminum one. It is also reported that the back panel will no longer be completely glass – it will include a metal insert. In the photo published by the insider, you can see the alleged element of the case, which emphasizes the likelihood of changes.

Other expected specs include an Apple A19 Pro processor, a proprietary Wi-Fi 7 chip, a 24-megapixel front camera, a 48-megapixel main module with a telephoto lens, a smaller Face ID cutout, and increased RAM to 12GB.

The iPhone 17 is expected to be unveiled in September 2025, leaving time for more leaks and clarifications.
