This could be a new product development strategy for Apple, as up to now, iPhone Pro versions have often had dark colors, instead of bright colors like the standard versions.
Earlier this year, the iPhone maker contracted TSMC’s entire 2nm manufacturing process for initial production, which is also expected to be used to produce Apple Silicon chips for future Macs.
Source from Digitimes said that the iPhone 17 Pro will be the first iPhone to use a processor manufactured on the 2nm process. Some sources even said that the iPhone 17 Pro will be the first smartphone equipped with this chip.
Theo MacRumors, the iPhone 17 generation will be equipped by Apple with a screen with an outer glass coating Ceramic Shield, which has better anti-reflective and scratch-resistant capabilities than previous versions.
The source also revealed that the new Ceramic Shield glass has been delivered to the supply chain in China. However, it will not appear in time for the iPhone 16 generation.
The iPhone 17 Pro and iPhone 17 Pro Max duo are expected to become the first iPhones to be equipped with the Face ID facial recognition system under the screen. Meanwhile, the selfie camera will still be designed in a punch-hole form.
