iPhone 17 leaks a week before Apple event – major design change confirmed <\/p>\n

The moment Apple fans have been waiting for is approaching, with the iPhone 17 expected to be unveiled on September 9th.<\/strong><\/p>\n

But tech enthusiasts may have already gotten a sneak peek at the new generation of devices ahead of the official launch.<\/p>\n

A leaked video, said to have been taken from the iPhone production line, shows what is believed to be the iPhone 17 Pro Max.<\/p>\n

If true, this short clip could confirm a major change in the design of the flagship smartphone.<\/p>\n

The leak was posted yesterday on Chinese social media platform Weibo, with a caption that translates as: “Something big has happened, the alleged iPhone 17 Pro Max mass production machine has been leaked.”<\/p>\n

The video shows someone taking a large, silver device that resembles an iPhone from a row of similar phones.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

The device has a large camera “island” that stretches across the entire top of the phone, similar to the new Google Pixel 10.<\/p>\n

As previous rumors suggested, the island appears to have three main cameras arranged in a triangle shape with two smaller sensors clustered on the other side.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

One of the strangest design features in this leaked model is the large square glass panel embedded in the back of the phone.<\/p>\n

The panel has an Apple logo in the center and covers most of the back of the phone, featuring a white-gray color on the silver model and matte black on the black version.<\/p>\n

If true, this would mark one of the most unexpected changes to Apple’s design since the removal of the Home button on the iPhone X.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Although the exact size cannot be estimated from the clip alone, the iPhone 17 Pro Max model in these videos appears somewhat wider than previous models.<\/p>\n

But on social media, the reaction to this new design has been far from positive.<\/p>\n

On Weibo, one commenter wrote: “It can’t be that ugly, I can’t believe it.”<\/p>\n

While another added: “It doesn’t look pretty.”<\/p>\n

In addition to showing the possible design of the iPhone 17 Pro Max, these clips also give an idea of \u200b\u200b\u200b\u200bthe possible colors.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Previous rumors suggested that the 17 Pro Max model could come in a bolder color palette, including black, white, blue, and even orange.<\/p>\n

However, in this clip, only the silver and black models are visible.<\/p>\n

In the background, the case of an iPhone 17 Pro Max can be seen, which appears to have a light bronze color, similar to the Desert Titanium finish of the iPhone 16 Pro.<\/p>\n

Frustratingly, the clip doesn’t last long enough to show if there are more color options.<\/p>\n

It’s also possible that these devices are dummy phones – models used to aid in the production of phone cases and do not reflect the actual design of the iPhone 17 Pro Max.<\/p>\n

To see for sure what Apple’s new devices look like, fans will have to wait until September 9th for the upcoming “amazing” event.<\/p>\n

The date was confirmed by an official invitation sent to members of the media and industry analysts, which features a new version of the Apple logo.<\/p>\n

It reads: \u201cWe invite you to join us in person for a Special Apple Event at the Steve Jobs Theater at Apple Park. September 9, 2025.\u201d<\/p>\n

The Apple invitation is unique and includes the classic Apple logo with an intriguing twist \u2013 a color effect that looks like infrared.<\/p>\n

Apple CEO Tim Cook posted on X: \u201cGet ready for an amazing #AppleEvent on Tuesday, September 9th!\u201d with a short animated clip.<\/p>\n

Industry experts expect Apple to unveil the iPhone 17, iPhone 17 Pro and Pro Max, as well as a new addition to the lineup in the form of the iPhone Air.<\/p>\n

The iPhone 17 Air, also called the “iPhone 17 Slim”, is expected to be a lighter and thinner option – rivaling Samsung’s recently launched Galaxy Edge.<\/p>\n

The iPhone 17 Air is said to be 0.2 inches (5.5mm) thin, which would make it the thinnest iPhone ever.<\/p>\n

Apple is also expected to introduce the Apple Watch Series 11 on September 9, with potential improvements in health monitoring and battery life. \/GazetaExpress\/<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"iPhone 17 leaks a week before Apple event – major design change confirmed AutoTech Express newspaper 03\/09\/2025 21:15…\n","protected":false},"author":3,"featured_media":198246,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[17],"tags":[611,158,67,132,68],"class_list":{"0":"post-198245","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-mobile","8":"tag-mobile","9":"tag-technology","10":"tag-united-states","11":"tag-unitedstates","12":"tag-us"},"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"https:\/\/pubeurope.com\/@us\/115143341973134567","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/198245","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/3"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=198245"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/198245\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/198246"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=198245"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=198245"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=198245"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
