iPhone 17 Pro: This is what the new unibody design looks like

iPhone 17 Pro Design

Apple releases a new iPhone every year—but not every year does it feature such significant design changes as the iPhone 17 Pro. If all goes according to plan, the device will be unveiled this fall. A new rendering is already causing a stir. It shows how Apple is redesigning the camera design and, for the first time, opting for a unified housing without color separation.

A rendering by X user kanedacane shows what the iPhone 17 Pro could look like with a full-body back. The traditional two-tone design is gone. Instead, the camera unit will be fully integrated into the casing, both in color and material. Reactions to this have been mixed – and the leak raises many questions about how Apple intends to shape the design line in the future.

New camera design: Unibody instead of color contrast

The iPhone 17 Pro will likely have a back with a camera and body that are visually one. Previously, Apple was expected to use a color-contrasting camera bar on the iPhone 17 Air or the Pro models. This would have provided contrast and recognition. But according to Mark Gurman, that's exactly not going to happen. The camera will be the same color as the rest of the body. The new rendering is based on this information and visualizes the unibody concept. This means: no longer a separation between the camera element and the back, but a uniform surface. This should create a minimalist, almost seamless design.

First impressions from the community

Not everyone is convinced. While the rendering shows a clean and simple look, some observers believe the two-tone design would have been more in keeping with the iPhone 17 Pro's premium appeal. It would have given the device more depth. Whether Apple is on the right track with the unibody style remains to be seen. The final look won't be finalized until the official launch – and Apple is known for tweaking details right up to the last detail.

Technical details remain under wraps

Aside from the camera design, there's hardly any confirmed information about the iPhone 17 Pro's hardware yet. The render shown also focuses only on the exterior. One thing is clear, however: Apple won't just be changing the look. As with any new model, improvements to the camera, processor, and battery life are to be expected. It will be particularly interesting to see how the Pro model compares to the ultra-thin iPhone 17 Air—which is also attracting attention with design changes (via X).

When will the iPhone 17 Pro be released?

Apple is expected to unveil the iPhone 17 series in September. This is in line with the usual schedule. Until then, all renderings and leaks like this one should be understood as previews—realistic, but not final. What the back will ultimately look like will only be revealed at the presentation. One thing is clear: Apple is trying something new, and it's already causing some controversy. (Image: kanedacane / X)
