The iPhone 2026 Pro, which Apple plans to launch in 17, is on the agenda with the latest leaks. While the company is expected to make radical changes in the flagship series, design and hardware innovations are of great interest. However, there are some controversial decisions among these innovations.

The iPhone 17 Pro comes with a new design and technological innovations

First of all, Apple is said to have opted for simpler choices in some areas instead of increasing the premium feel. In the design of the new iPhone 17 Pro, Apple partially replaces the titanium body used in previous models with a combination of aluminum and glass on the back panel. At first, this change may be interpreted as a step back in terms of the durability and aesthetics of the device. However, thanks to the titanium material on the edges, the premium feel is not completely lost.

There is a serious transformation in the camera module. Apple is moving away from the usual square format to a rectangular camera layout. The lenses are positioned in a more spread out arrangement on the back surface of the device. This design is a bit reminiscent of the Google Pixel series.

iPhone 17 Pro seems to be a very ambitious device in terms of performance for now. The new generation A19 Pro chip is produced with TSMC’s 3 nm production technology. According to rumors, Apple’s innovation in chip technology will make a difference in intensive artificial intelligence processes and tasks that require high performance.

There is also a significant upgrade to the rear camera. The resolution of the telephoto lens will be increased from 12 MP to 48 MP, providing a significant increase in image quality. The front camera’s resolution is also increased to 24 MP and is better integrated into the new “Dynamic Island” design. This camera will be able to deliver higher performance in a smaller space thanks to Apple’s metalens technology.

Apple’s material choices and design changes have caused mixed reactions among users. The absence of titanium on the back panel and the Google Pixel-style camera layout are criticized by some Apple fans. It is a matter of great curiosity how Apple will achieve a balance in iPhone 17 Pro with these changes. How much the new design will preserve Apple’s iconic premium feel will become clear with the launch.
