This year’s upcoming iPhone 17 Pro and iPhone 17 Pro Max will allegedly share all four of their cameras (three on the rear, one on the front). According to a new leak from Digital Chat Station in China, the selfie camera will be upgraded to a 24 MP one.
On the rear, there will be a 48 MP main camera using a 1/1.3-inch type sensor, a 48 MP ultrawide, and a 48 MP periscope telephoto camera with 5x optical zoom.

Compared to the iPhone 16 Pro and Pro Max, the main camera sensor will be ever so slightly smaller, while the periscope telephoto camera will be higher-resolution.
This all makes it seem like the iPhone 17 Pro and Pro Max will barely have any camera improvements compared to their predecessors, but we’re sure Apple will find a way to hype up even the most minute differences at its launch event in September.
Digital Chat Station further notes that current Pro prototypes have a horizontal camera island on the rear just as rumored before. The caveat here is that the design is allegedly only going to be finalized around March, according to a different Weibo user.
