Apple could be incorporating an interesting structural/design tweak to the upcoming iPhone 17 Pro series. Latest supply chain whispers indicate that the device’s antenna system may be relocated to wrap around the camera module, an idea inspired by the dual frequency band antenna design of the Apple Watch Ultra.
This unconfirmed but intriguing leak (via Majinbu’s official blog) posits that Apple is not just making changes to the iPhone 17 Pro’s camera module for the sake of, well, cameras, but could serve a secondary purpose. Now, current iPhones feature antenna lines along the edges of the chassis, which can be susceptible to interference from a user’s grip or from the phone’s metal components.
