New Leak Suggests iPhone 17 Pro to Retain Triangular Camera Layout
Sources suggest the iPhone 17 Pro will retain its triangular camera layout despite rumors of a Pixel-like redesign.
Recent leaks about the iPhone 17 Pro have sparked discussions surrounding its camera design. Early rumors suggested a drastic redesign, potentially resembling the Pixel’s horizontal camera layout. However, new information from Setsuna Digital, a Weibo-based tipster with a credible track record, indicates that the triangular camera layout will remain intact.
According to Setsuna Digital, “My sources told me that the back has indeed changed, but the triple-camera layout is still a triangle, not the horizontal strip that is currently circulating online.” This insight counters earlier speculation and aligns with Apple’s established approach to accommodating powerful camera systems, a design philosophy first introduced with the iPhone 11 Pro.
The triangular camera layout, featuring three lenses—two aligned vertically with a third offset—has become a hallmark of Apple’s Pro series. While some leaked renders hint at a rectangular camera bar, it’s possible these designs correspond to other models within the iPhone lineup.
Apple is expected to enhance the camera capabilities of the iPhone 17 Pro, though the specifics of its design remain uncertain. Setsuna Digital’s predictions carry weight, given their accurate insights on previous Apple products, including details about the iPhone 16 Pro’s battery and earlier iPad models.
As the iPhone 17 Pro’s release approaches, additional details from the supply chain and other reliable sources are likely to shed more light on its final design. For now, industry watchers continue to analyze emerging leaks and speculate on how Apple may balance innovation with its iconic design language.
