TECH NEWS – While the Cupertino-based company focuses on the development of the 2025 model, the production of one of its previous product lines has probably been stopped in the meantime.

The iPhone 17 Pro models will reportedly feature a smaller Dynamic Island with Meta Lens technology and have a part-glass, part-aluminum design, although this could change at a later date. The Dynamic Island arrived with the release of the iPhone 14 Pro, and then the entire 15 and 16 lineup adopted it. According to MyDrivers, the iPhone 17 Pro will be slightly smaller with Meta Lens, which will also make Face ID smaller. The publication adds that the bezels will also be thinner, which is Apple’s way of taking a step towards a new “display-only” iPhone design, as the visual impact will be stronger thanks to the changes.

So the goal is to have a completely unobtrusive front of the device, but to do that the company will have to adopt and then perfect the under-display sensors and camera if it wants to continue using the Face ID approach. MyDrivers has also hinted at the use of glass and aluminum (this will be necessary for wireless charging), and it has no plans to place the camera sensors in a straight line (we saw this on the Google Pixel lineup), so the triangular camera module seen on the iPhone 16 Pro would remain. Speaking of cameras, the iPhone 17 Pro will also change these, but the major improvement will be in the iPhone 18 in 2026.

Apple often stops selling its previous products when new ones hit the stores. This is the case for the iPhone 14, iPhone 14 Plus and iPhone SE 3, which are no longer available in Apple Stores in France, but only online, according to Consomac. Online sales will also stop very soon (December 28th), but this is probably due to the introduction of USB-C: from December 28th, only devices that can be charged in this way will be sold in the EU, and these still use a Lightning port.

The rumors about the iPhone 17 Pro are not true yet!
