The giant camera bar is still there.
The major difference is that theres no two-tone design.
you’re able to see for yourself below.

What does this mean for iPhone 17 Pro Max?
As one user onXhas pointed out, that design is pretty similar to theiPad Pro M4.
Considering Apple is usually a creature of habit, I can definitely see this look being reused again.
Thats assuming the camera bar isnt also enclosed in glass like it is on theiPhone 16 Pro Max.
This design is probably here to stay
I have no animosity towards camera bars.
But Im still not convinced that Apple isnt making a mistake here because theres so much dead space.
But I still feel like Apple could do a better job than this if these rendersareaccurate.
These images don’t really scream the smart design Apple built its current reputation on in the early 00s.
It reminds me of some vintage video camera designs that had otherwise faded from memory.
Whether you and I like the design or not, it certainly seems like its here to stay.
And knowing Apple there wont be any major redesigns for another several years.
