iPhone 17 Pro Max appearance exposed: Smart Island becomes smaller

analyst Jeff Pu revealed that Apple’s iPhone 17 series will undergo a series of configuration upgrades. The original iPhone 17 Plus will be cancelled and replaced by iPhone 17 Air.

At the same time, the iPhone 17 series all adopt a more complex aluminum body design. The Smart Island of the Pro Max version will become smaller, while the Smart Island of other models remains the same.

It is understood that the iPhone 17 Pro Max will adopt super lens technology, which will significantly reduce the area of ​​the Smart Island, making the front design of the phone more simple and beautiful.

Compared with traditional lenses, the advantages of superlens lie in its thin design and adjustable light refraction properties, which not only reduces the thickness of the built-in camera module, but also allows the device to achieve a higher screen-to-body ratio while maintaining powerful functions.

In terms of configuration, the entire iPhone 17 series is equipped with the A19 chip, among which iPhone 17 and iPhone 17 Air are the first to be equipped with the A19 chip, and iPhone 17 Pro and iPhone 17 Pro Max are the first to be equipped with the A19 Pro chip. Both chips are built based on TSMC’s third-generation 3nm process (N3P).

In addition, the entire iPhone 17 series has been upgraded to a 24-megapixel front camera, and the entire series will support 120Hz ProMotion high refresh display.
