Apple is making a design change in the iPhone 17 Pro series by enlarging the handset slot. With this update, which the company will apply to the iPhone 17 Pro and iPhone 17 Pro Max models, both the sound quality in phone calls and the speaker performance will be improved.
iPhone 17 Pro comes with an important innovation
In the new design, the handset slot is kept a little longer than in previous models. Thanks to this physical change, a clearer and clearer sound can be received during phone calls. The widening of the handset also directly affects the volume of the sound coming from the speaker at the top of the device. This change can significantly strengthen the stereo sound experience of the device.

It is noteworthy that Apple applies the longer handset design only to the Pro models. It was previously reported that the Dynamic Island design would be smaller in the entire iPhone 17 series. This reduction is made possible with Metalens technology.
However, despite this narrowing of the design, the fact that only the Pro models have been expanded has led to comments that Apple wants to differentiate the Pro series through sound quality. This change will be introduced to users with the iPhone 17 Pro and iPhone 17 Pro Max models, which are expected to be introduced in the fall.
The company will improve the sound experience with this subtle touch without making a major innovation on the exterior design. So what do you think about this? You can share your views with us in the comments section below.
