Design

The back of the iPhone 17 Pro Max is anticipated to be significantly redesigned. According to predictions from prominent Apple experts like Sonny Dickson and Ming-Chi Kuo, the iPhone 17 Pro may include a redesigned back panel composed of glass and aluminum. 

This change would break the iPhone 16 Pro models' all-titanium structure. Apple may have changed the material to improve structural endurance in certain regions while maintaining wireless charging compatibility. 

According to rumors, the iPhone 17 Pro series may also feature a larger, more rectangular camera module with softly curved corners, similar to the design used in Google's Pixel lineup.

Chipset

Analyst Jeff Pu revealed that Apple plans to update the iPhone 17 with the newest A19 CPU, defying previous rumors that the base model would keep the A18 chip. Pu claims that the A19 chip is anticipated to power both the regular iPhone 17 and the recently unveiled iPhone 17 Air. 

However, the more sophisticated A19 Pro CPU that powers the iPhone 17 Pro and Ultra models will likely provide better GPU performance. Additionally, the standard and Air variants might still use LPDDR5 memory, even if the Pro models are reported to switch to faster LPDDR5X RAM.
