Here's a roundup of 12 notable changes rumored for the iPhone 11 lineup. 
Aluminum frame
The iPhone 17 Pro models are said to use an aluminum frame, while the iPhone 15 Pro and iPhone 16 Pro will use a titanium frame, and the iPhone X through iPhone 14 Pro will use a stainless steel frame. The back of the device is said to have a design that combines aluminum and glass.

Apple could switch to an aluminum frame to improve weight and heat dissipation, especially since the device will feature a more powerful chip and a more advanced camera (which requires good heat dissipation). However, aluminum is more prone to scratches and dents than titanium, so the hybrid glass-aluminum back design could be to mitigate that weakness.
Rectangular camera cluster
The iPhone 17 Pro is expected to have a large rectangular rear camera cluster with rounded corners. However, Apple is said to still keep the triangular lens layout like previous generations.
Rectangular cameras (with rounded corners) are a common trend among high-end Android smartphones. Apple seems to be moving to this design to accommodate three larger 48MP sensors and a potential telephoto module. The new shape also helps dissipate heat better, while also giving it a modern and distinct look compared to previous generations.
Sky Blue
Similar to the latest MacBook Air line, the iPhone 17 Pro will come in a Sky Blue color version.
Sky Blue is a very successful color on the MacBook Air M3, bringing a modern, youthful feel, and in line with the aesthetic trend of 2025. This could be the most prominent color of the iPhone 17 Pro this year, like the Titanium Blue color of the iPhone 15 Pro last year.
Bigger battery
The iPhone 17 Pro Max is rumored to have a slightly thicker design to accommodate a larger battery.
The thicker design to increase battery capacity is important because: 48MP camera and 8K video recording consume a lot of energy; Apple Intelligence (AI) is expected to require high-intensity processing, leading to greater battery drain; The ability to support dual recording also puts pressure on the battery and cooling system.
A19 Pro Chip
The iPhone 17 Pro series is expected to use Apple's latest generation A19 Pro chip, manufactured on TSMC's third-generation 3nm process. As usual, users can expect moderate performance improvements and better power efficiency compared to current iPhones.
Apple-designed Wi-Fi 7 chip
All four iPhone 17 models are said to use Apple-designed Wi-Fi 7 chips, instead of using Broadcom's as before.
Wi-Fi 7 helps: 4 times faster transmission speed than Wi-Fi 6; Lower latency (suitable for gaming, AR/VR); More stable in multi-device environments (smart home, office).
24 megapixel front camera
All iPhone 17 models are said to upgrade the front camera to 24MP, while the current iPhone 16 series only has a 12MP front camera.
Upgrading from 12MP to 24MP brings: More detailed selfies, especially in low light conditions; Higher quality vlogs and TikTok recording; Improved FaceTime calling experience when using AI to process images, smooth skin, and blur background.
48 megapixel rear Telephoto camera
The iPhone 17 Pro series will upgrade the rear telephoto camera to 48MP, compared to 12MP on the iPhone 16 Pro.
Increasing resolution from 12MP to 48MP brings: Sharper zoom, even when using digital zoom; More accurate portraits (due to more depth data); Better support for ProRAW or 8K recording from the telephoto camera.
Dual recording
According to Jon Prosser (YouTube Front Page Tech), the iPhone 17 Pro and Pro Max will allow simultaneous video recording with the front and rear cameras in the Camera app.
This would be great for vlogs, interviews, reactions, and also help create multi-angle videos without much editing.
8K video recording
Apple has been testing 8K video recording on the iPhone 16 Pro, but the feature has not been released yet. With all three rear cameras on the iPhone 17 Pro reaching 48MP, it is likely that 8K video recording will be officially integrated.
8K video allows more flexibility in post-production (cropping, zooming, image stabilization without loss of quality) and is suitable for the professional content creation and XR (extended reality) markets.
12GB RAM
The iPhone 17 Pro (and the iPhone 17 Air) are rumored to have 12GB of RAM, up from 8GB on the iPhone 16 series. This RAM upgrade should boost Apple Intelligence performance and better multitasking.
Improved cooling system
All four iPhone 17 models are expected to feature improved internal designs for better heat dissipation, with the Pro models likely to feature a vapor chamber cooling system.
Vapor Chamber is an advanced thermal technology that allows for high performance when gaming, recording videos, or running AI for long periods of time without thermal throttling.
Apple implementing this on the iPhone 17 Pro and iPhone 17 Pro Max could unlock the true potential of the A19 Pro and 12GB of RAM.
The iPhone 17 series will be launched by Apple this fall. The new iPhone models are expected to include: iPhone 17, iPhone 17 Pro, iPhone 17 Pro Max and the super-thin iPhone 17 Air, with many new upgrades, especially the "Pro" duo.
