While Apple has not officially announced the iPhone 17 Pro, a newly leaked image posted on X by Majin Bu shows potential design changes, such as a sleeker profile and a redesigned camera module.
The timing of this leak is consistent with Apple’s typical product development cycle. Apple usually releases new iPhone models annually, with the “Pro” versions often featuring advanced technologies and design refinements.
The design has sparked polarized reactions, with many users on social media calling it “ugly” and the “worst design ever,” while some note its potential appeal despite initial criticism, reflecting Apple’s history of controversial design shifts that often gain acceptance over time.
While the image offers a glimpse into potential design directions, it’s important to approach such leaks with caution. Apple’s plans can change, and unofficial renders may not accurately represent the final product.
The leak, however, aligns with Majin Bu’s reputation as a credible source for Apple rumours, previously sharing accurate renders of iPhone 16 Pro components.

In contrast to the Pro models, the base iPhone 17 is anticipated to look nearly identical to the iPhone 16. Leaks suggests that Apple will keep the standard model’s dual-lens setup arranged vertically within a pill-shaped bump.
