iPhone 17 Pro has the following notable changes that are rumored as of July 2025:
New aluminum frame design
According to many leaked sources, Apple may switch to aluminum for the frame of the iPhone 17 Pro models. This is a significant change compared to the previous iPhone 15 Pro and iPhone 16 Pro, which were finished in titanium, or versions from iPhone X to iPhone 14 Pro using stainless steel frames. This change not only affects the weight but can also bring a different grip feeling to users.
Not only the frame, the back of the iPhone 17 Pro is also said to have a new design with a combination of glass and aluminum - promising to create a modern look, while making the device lighter while still maintaining luxury.
New anti-glare coating screen
Another notable point is that Apple is researching and potentially equipping the iPhone 17 Pro with an anti-reflective glass layer. Recent reports further reinforce this possibility, saying that Apple may use a frosted glass with anti-glare capabilities — likely similar to the nano-texture glass that has appeared on the iMac, MacBook Pro, and iPad Pro.
This coating is rumored to be available from 2024 and is said to be more scratch-resistant than the current Ceramic Shield. Thanks to that, the iPhone 17 Pro screen will be more durable and resistant to wear and tear during long-term use.
While there were reports that there were problems with the anti-reflective coating manufacturing process and that Apple might delay the feature, things have now settled down. The technical hurdles appear to have been overcome, and bringing this new type of display to the iPhone 17 Pro is becoming a more viable option than ever.

Dynamic Island can be scaled
According to leaked sources, Apple is likely to bring a new design for Dynamic Island across the entire iPhone 17 line. This design is said to be cleaner than the current version – a notable improvement since the feature first appeared on the iPhone 14 Pro in 2022.
Initially, some information said that only the iPhone 17 Pro Max model would have a reduced Dynamic Island, however, it was later suggested that this change could be moved to the iPhone 18 Pro. Meanwhile, some other sources confirmed that the entire iPhone 17 series will have a smaller Dynamic Island.
The rear camera has a rectangular design.
In terms of back design, the iPhone 17 Pro is said to have a large rectangular rear camera cluster with rounded corners, creating a more modern feel. However, Apple still retains the familiar triangular three-lens layout.
There will be an additional bright orange option
Another highlight in the design of the iPhone 17 Pro is the appearance of a new orange version - described as an extremely prominent "fluorescent" orange. This could be a bold step in Apple's design style, in addition to traditional colors such as dark blue, gray, black and silver.
Outstanding battery life
The iPhone 17 Pro Max is rumored to have a slightly thicker design to accommodate a larger battery. For the first time in iPhone history, this phone model is said to have a battery capacity exceeding 5,000 mAh, promising significantly longer usage time compared to previous generations.

Power from the new A19 Pro chip
Apple will equip the iPhone 17 Pro series with the latest A19 Pro chip - a technological step forward using the third-generation 3nm process from TSMC. With this improvement, users can expect stronger processing performance and more optimized energy consumption compared to the A18 Pro chip on the iPhone 16 series.
RAM upgraded to 12GB for smooth experience
According to leaked sources, not only the iPhone 17 Pro and Pro Max but also the iPhone 17 Air will have its RAM upgraded to 12GB - a significant improvement compared to 8GB in the previous line. This will help the device better handle tasks related to Apple Intelligence artificial intelligence as well as multitasking more effectively.
25W wireless charging
The iPhone 17 Pro is expected to support high-speed wireless charging up to 25W, compatible with many chargers using the Qi 2.2 standard. Meanwhile, on the iPhone 16 series, this power level is only achieved when used with Apple's new MagSafe charger.
Wi-Fi 7 developed by Apple
Instead of relying on Broadcom as before, Apple may equip the entire iPhone 17 line with its own Wi-Fi 7 chip. This promises to bring stable connection performance and faster speeds.
24MP front camera
According to leaked information, Apple will upgrade the selfie camera on all four iPhone 17 models to 24MP resolution - double the 12MP front camera on the iPhone 16, making portrait photos and video calls significantly sharper.

48MP Telephoto Camera
On the iPhone 17 Pro version, Apple is expected to equip a telephoto camera with a resolution of up to 48MP, replacing the 12MP sensor on the iPhone 16 Pro line. This is considered a leap forward in optical zoom quality and detailed photography from a distance.
Dual video recording feature
According to Jon Prosser from YouTube channel Front Page Tech, the iPhone 17 Pro and Pro Max are expected to add the ability to record videos using both the front and rear cameras at the same time right in the native Camera app. This feature promises to bring a convenient vlogging and live interview experience, without the need for third-party software.
8K video recording
Apple has been testing 8K video recording on the iPhone 16 Pro line but has not officially launched it. With information that all three rear cameras on the iPhone 17 Pro have a resolution of 48MP, it is highly likely that Apple will equip 8K video recording for the first time on this new product line, bringing super sharp images to those who love high-quality filming.
Advanced vapor chamber cooling system
All iPhone 17 models are expected to feature an improved internal design to improve heat dissipation. In particular, the two high-end Pro and Pro Max models may use a vapor chamber cooling system. According to Majin Bu and several other reliable leakers, this system works on the principle that when the processor generates heat, the liquid inside the chamber will evaporate, move to a cool area to condense, then return to the hot area to continue cooling — similar to the solution equipped on high-performance gaming laptops.

The Apple logo is lowered compared to previous generations.
Apple is said to lower the logo position on the back of the iPhone 17 Pro, marking a slight change in design to accommodate the rearrangement of the MagSafe magnet cluster inside. This is one of the adjustments to optimize the user experience as well as better support for wireless accessories.
Not only minor changes on the back, the iPhone 17 Pro series is also expected to create a big push in terms of overall design, processing performance, and especially technologies related to the front camera, professional video recording capabilities, superior battery capacity and improved fast charging.
If these leaks come true, the iPhone 17 Pro could be Apple's most significant step forward in recent years, promising a user experience far beyond previous generations.
Apple is expected to introduce the iPhone 17 series in late September 2025. Of which, the Pro versions continue to be the highlight thanks to possessing the company's most advanced hardware technology.
