Apple’s upcoming iPhone 17 Pro is rumored to introduce a significant design shift with a larger, rectangular camera bar on the back. According to Jon Prosser of Front Page Tech, this new camera module will feature rounded corners and house three rear cameras arranged in a triangular layout, along with an LED flash, a rear microphone, and a LiDAR Scanner for enhanced depth sensing.
A key aesthetic change is the two-tone finish, where the camera bar will have a darker shade compared to the rest of the phone’s rear shell. This design choice is reportedly based on leaks from multiple sources familiar with Apple’s plans.
Although the specific advantages of this new camera bar remain unclear, speculation suggests that Apple may extend this design to the iPhone 17 Pro Max as well. Additionally, lower-end models in the iPhone 17 lineup might adopt a similar look, though with fewer cameras to differentiate them from the Pro models. If these reports are accurate, Apple’s shift to a camera bar could mark a new era in iPhone aesthetics and functionality.
