In a surprising turn of events, details about the Apple iPhone 17 Pro model’s camera system have surfaced online, revealing what could be a significant leap in photography capabilities without the need for larger lenses.
According to the leaked info:
Main Camera: The primary lens remains at 48 megapixels but is now paired with a 1/1.3″ sensor, which should mean even better low-light photography and overall image quality.
Ultra-Wide Camera: Also sticking with 48 megapixels, this camera will capture expansive views with enhanced detail.
Periscope Camera: A 48-megapixel sensor with a 5x optical zoom promises to bring distant subjects into close-up focus, potentially challenging the zoom capabilities of its competitors.
Front Camera: Selfie enthusiasts have something to look forward to with an upgrade to a 24-megapixel sensor, promising sharper selfies and video calls.
Both the main and telephoto cameras will boast GP glass-plastic hybrid lenses, aiming for a balance of quality and durability.
This leak suggests that Apple is focusing on quality rather than quantity when it comes to camera hardware, possibly making the iPhone 17 Pro a top contender for photography enthusiasts.
While these are unconfirmed leaks, they paint an exciting picture for what’s to come. Apple has yet to make any official statements, so fans should keep an eye out for the official reveal to see if these specs hold true.

The main camera of the iPhone 17 Pro series won’t get any larger; the current specifications I’ve come across are a 48MP main camera with a 1/1.3″ sensor, a 48MP ultra-wide camera, and a 48MP 5X periscope camera. Both the main and telephoto cameras use GP glass-plastic lenses, and the front camera has been upgraded to 24MP. You could say it’s quite the large-screen imaging machine.
