Major update: what features will appear in the iPhone 17 Pro
After a long period of not very significant updates to Apple smartphones, experts hope for dramatic changes in 2025. And the press has already revealed the first hints of what the iPhone 17 Pro, which will be released in early fall, might look like.
According to Dev.ua, the top-end iPhone can really change the way users think about this type of gadget. Here's what fans and experts expect from it.
Radical upgrade of the front camera
Rear cameras have always been Apple's priority, and the company has been significantly improving the quality of its photos and videos year after year. However, this year, a breakthrough is expected from the front camera, which is used for selfies and video calls. It is expected that the iPhone 17 will have a 24-megapixel sensor that is twice as powerful as the 12-megapixel one. You can also find information that the iPhone 17 Pro and Pro Max will have a "more rectangular camera protrusion." This is likely to bring some advantages, but it is not yet clear what they are.
Durable but elegant body
The body of the top-of-the-line iPhone 17 will be made of a hybrid aluminum-titanium material that will replace stainless steel. This should make it even more durable. The glass should also become more resistant to mechanical stress, which will also have better anti-reflective properties.
It is also reported that the iPhone 17 Pro will have an improved Dynamic Island thanks to advanced "metalinze" technology. The size of the "island" itself will decrease, which will help Apple get one step closer to the goal of making the screen design seamless across the entire surface.
Improved display performance
At the moment, it is said that the screen sizes of the iPhone 17 Pro will remain unchanged – 6.3 and 6.9 inches. However, it is expected to significantly improve outdoor visibility and durability. The display should remain bright and easy to read even in bright light.
More power to the gadget
The iPhone 17 Pro will be powered by the innovative A19 Pro chip, which is more powerful than its predecessors. In addition, the smartphone will receive up to 12 GB of RAM. This will not only increase the multitasking capabilities of the device but also help it easily cope with advanced AI-based features.
In addition, the gadget will receive a specially developed Apple Wi-Fi 7 and Bluetooth chip. This update should provide faster and more reliable connections. In addition, it is reported that Apple is developing its own 5G modem, which indicates a shift to greater hardware independence and control over device performance.
Expanding eSIM capabilities
Apple continues its move to eliminate the use of physical SIM cards. The top smartphones of 2025 from this manufacturer are likely to be focused on digital eSIMs. However, this may create certain problems in countries where the introduction of eSIMs is restricted.
Improved artificial intelligence
More and more features in the iPhone 17 will be combined with artificial intelligence capabilities. It will help you edit photos, videos, and texts, structure and process files, and even create your own emojis. At the same time, the device's power will be sufficient so that the AI does not overload it.
