Apple's iPhone 17 Pro has long been rumored to have cell phone sex videoa completely redesigned camera array on the back. Now, however, a new report tells us all those designs we've seen so far were dead wrong.
On Friday, Apple leaker and Front Page Techhost Jon Prosser unveiled the "actual" design of the new iPhone 17 Pro in a YouTube video. According to Prosser, Apple's new flagship will have a redesigned back (the front of the phone is largely staying the same), but the cameras will not be laid out horizontally.
Instead, the iPhone 17 Pro will reportedly have the same, triangular layout of the rear cameras, but they will now be located in a large camera bump, which basically extends across the width of the phone, and has a darker color than the rest of the phone.

It makes sense. There are technical reasons why Apple would want to keep the current camera layout; one of them, as Prosser suggests in the video, is the fact that there's just no room on top of the phone for a fully horizontal camera layout.
The images that Prosser shared in the video (below) are renders, but Prosser claims he has both seen the device himself, and got the design confirmed from multiple sources. While this is hard to believe — it's very, very rare that someone gets a glimpse of an actual new iPhone this far ahead of launch — it is certainly possible.

As far as other changes go, Prosser also debunked the reports that the Dynamic Island on the phone's face is getting smaller. He said he doesn't know much about the materials Apple will use for the iPhone, nor its internals, but he quotes sources who claim the phone feels lighter in their hand.
None of this is official, and we won't know if it's really true until Apple launches the new iPhone, which will likely happen in September.
