iPhone 17 Pro: the camera layout will still be triangular
In a new post on Weibo, the leaker reported that a source has confirmed that while the look of the back of the iPhone 17 Pro has indeed changed, the three camera layout is still triangular. The news contradicts other recent supply chain information from China, which stated that the module features an elongated oval shape.
The triangular camera layout, implemented starting with the iPhone 11 Pro, was a significant change from previous models, which featured a more traditional vertical camera layout. Apple’s decision to move to a new design was primarily dictated by the need to accommodate a third camera in the form of Ultra Wide, along with improved sensors and optics. The introduction of the new camera bump set a new aesthetic standard for subsequent models, influencing the design of versions to come all the way up to the latest iPhone 16.
Regardless, it seems that the design of the iPhone 17 Pro is destined to change significantly. Weeks ago, in fact, it was reported that the back of the iPhone 17 Pro and 17 17 Pro Max will be equipped with a rectangular camera module made of aluminum rather than 3D glass, while the lower half will continue to be made of glass in order to be able to support wireless charging.
