Apple iPhone 17 series render (leaked)
A prominent Weibo user and tipster, Digital Chat Station, shared the render of what is believed to be a model from the iPhone 17 series. According to the tipster, the render is based on information derived from supply chain materials.
The leaked images show that the iPhone 17 models might sport a horizontal, pill-shaped camera module. This design is reminiscent of Google’s Pixel 9 series, which also features a horizontally aligned camera array.
