Sonny Dickson has shared a real world photo of two clear cases purportedly for the iPhone 17 Pro series due out this fall. We’ve been expecting the rear camera bump to expand across the width of the phone, and these cases show just how mountain range-sized the camera bar will be.

One thing about the iPhone 17 Pro and Pro Max has been clear for a while: Apple plans to lean hard into beefing up the Pro camera system even while scaling cameras back on the iPhone 17 Air.

There have been a couple of previous reports suggesting that at least one iPhone 17 model will run cooler, thanks to a hi-tech liquid cooling system known as a vapor chamber. This has today been backed by a third one – though it’s uncertain which models will get the new feature.
While Apple chips have grown progressively more powerful each year, they can run hot when performing demanding tasks like running graphic-intensive games, forcing the device to reduce power …
