Contrary to popular belief, FPT says the camera lenses will not be laid out in a horizontal line, but will rather be clustered along the side like in older models. He explains his reasons (which are plausible, to be frank), but I\u2019m here to tell you what my \u2018expert\u2019 opinion is. In short, the new phones will either have the camera lenses arrayed in a straight line, or Apple may have some other hidden secrets. These renders that FPT shares in the video above are, as I believe it, absolutely wrong, and I have my reasons too.<\/p>\n<p>Designer: <a rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/@asherdipps\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Asher Dipps<\/a> for <a rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/@FrontPageTech\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Front Page Tech<\/a><\/p>\n<p><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-534928\" src=\"https:\/\/www.yankodesign.com\/images\/design_news\/2025\/02\/dont-believe-these-iphone-17-pro-rumors-the-phone-will-not-look-like-this\/iphone_17_pro_leak_1.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1280\" height=\"960\" data-jpibfi-post-excerpt=\"\" data-jpibfi-post-url=\"https:\/\/www.yankodesign.com\/2025\/02\/14\/stop-believing-these-iphone-17-pro-rumors-heres-why-this-design-wont-happen\/\" data-jpibfi-post-title=\"Stop Believing These iPhone 17 Pro Rumors\u2026 Here\u2019s Why This Design Won\u2019t Happen\" data-jpibfi-src=\"https:\/\/www.yankodesign.com\/images\/design_news\/2025\/02\/dont-believe-these-iphone-17-pro-rumors-the-phone-will-not-look-like-this\/iphone_17_pro_leak_1.jpg\"><\/p>\n<p>In his video, FPT makes the case that Apple opted for the corner lens array on the back because of the infamous notch on the front. Cameras notoriously require space and hardware, and the centrally located notch meant that Apple didn\u2019t have space on the back to fit a centrally located camera system. To account for that, Apple shifted all the lenses to the left side, and that\u2019s been the case for years.<\/p>\n<p>This meant that even with the horizontal bar, Apple would face the same problem. The lenses (or at least the middle one) would interfere on a component level with the front-facing camera and the FaceID system. FPT backs this with claims that he actually \u2018saw\u2019 the iPhone 17 Pro in person (or at least he saw a very convincing case-making prototype) and that had all the camera lenses in the corner, like they always do.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-534929\" src=\"https:\/\/www.yankodesign.com\/images\/design_news\/2025\/02\/dont-believe-these-iphone-17-pro-rumors-the-phone-will-not-look-like-this\/iphone_17_pro_leak_2.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1280\" height=\"960\" data-jpibfi-post-excerpt=\"\" data-jpibfi-post-url=\"https:\/\/www.yankodesign.com\/2025\/02\/14\/stop-believing-these-iphone-17-pro-rumors-heres-why-this-design-wont-happen\/\" data-jpibfi-post-title=\"Stop Believing These iPhone 17 Pro Rumors\u2026 Here\u2019s Why This Design Won\u2019t Happen\" data-jpibfi-src=\"https:\/\/www.yankodesign.com\/images\/design_news\/2025\/02\/dont-believe-these-iphone-17-pro-rumors-the-phone-will-not-look-like-this\/iphone_17_pro_leak_2.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"lazyload alignnone size-full wp-image-534929\" src=\"https:\/\/www.yankodesign.com\/images\/design_news\/2025\/02\/dont-believe-these-iphone-17-pro-rumors-the-phone-will-not-look-like-this\/iphone_17_pro_leak_2.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1280\" height=\"960\" data-jpibfi-post-excerpt=\"\" data-jpibfi-post-url=\"https:\/\/www.yankodesign.com\/2025\/02\/14\/stop-believing-these-iphone-17-pro-rumors-heres-why-this-design-wont-happen\/\" data-jpibfi-post-title=\"Stop Believing These iPhone 17 Pro Rumors\u2026 Here\u2019s Why This Design Won\u2019t Happen\" data-jpibfi-src=\"https:\/\/www.yankodesign.com\/images\/design_news\/2025\/02\/dont-believe-these-iphone-17-pro-rumors-the-phone-will-not-look-like-this\/iphone_17_pro_leak_2.jpg\"><\/p>\n<div class=\"code-block code-block-1\" style=\"margin: 8px 0; clear: both;\">\n<div style=\"padding: 4px; margin: 18px auto 20px; text-align:center;\"><script async src=\"https:\/\/pagead2.googlesyndication.com\/pagead\/js\/adsbygoogle.js?client=ca-pub-7222236028814181\" crossorigin=\"anonymous\" type=\"a7984c10c62c21c69f4251cf-text\/javascript\"><\/script><br \/>\n<!-- In-Content-Ad-1 --><\/p>\n<p><script type=\"a7984c10c62c21c69f4251cf-text\/javascript\">\n<\/script><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p>I\u2019m here to say that\u2019s wrong \u2013 on two broad levels. The first level is that just from a design POV, this makes absolutely no sense. Why would Apple elongate the camera bump and leave so much empty space on the right by clustering the lenses on the left? It\u2019s a deviation from logic and it\u2019s something I don\u2019t see Apple doing just because it doesn\u2019t make sense for a company that prides itself SO MUCH on aesthetics that this would trigger Tim Cook on an OCD level. Hell, we\u2019re talking about Apple \u2013 the company that matches the corner radius on the iPhone, AirPods Case, and MacBook \u2013 because it can.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-534930\" src=\"https:\/\/www.yankodesign.com\/images\/design_news\/2025\/02\/dont-believe-these-iphone-17-pro-rumors-the-phone-will-not-look-like-this\/iphone_17_pro_leak_3.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1280\" height=\"960\" data-jpibfi-post-excerpt=\"\" data-jpibfi-post-url=\"https:\/\/www.yankodesign.com\/2025\/02\/14\/stop-believing-these-iphone-17-pro-rumors-heres-why-this-design-wont-happen\/\" data-jpibfi-post-title=\"Stop Believing These iPhone 17 Pro Rumors\u2026 Here\u2019s Why This Design Won\u2019t Happen\" data-jpibfi-src=\"https:\/\/www.yankodesign.com\/images\/design_news\/2025\/02\/dont-believe-these-iphone-17-pro-rumors-the-phone-will-not-look-like-this\/iphone_17_pro_leak_3.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"lazyload alignnone size-full wp-image-534930\" src=\"https:\/\/www.yankodesign.com\/images\/design_news\/2025\/02\/dont-believe-these-iphone-17-pro-rumors-the-phone-will-not-look-like-this\/iphone_17_pro_leak_3.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1280\" height=\"960\" data-jpibfi-post-excerpt=\"\" data-jpibfi-post-url=\"https:\/\/www.yankodesign.com\/2025\/02\/14\/stop-believing-these-iphone-17-pro-rumors-heres-why-this-design-wont-happen\/\" data-jpibfi-post-title=\"Stop Believing These iPhone 17 Pro Rumors\u2026 Here\u2019s Why This Design Won\u2019t Happen\" data-jpibfi-src=\"https:\/\/www.yankodesign.com\/images\/design_news\/2025\/02\/dont-believe-these-iphone-17-pro-rumors-the-phone-will-not-look-like-this\/iphone_17_pro_leak_3.jpg\"><\/p>\n<p>The second reason why these renders are not credible, is because I believe that in order for them to be so \u2013 they\u2019d need to have more to them. What do I mean? Apple\u2019s created a square camera bump for its Pro models ever since the iPhone 11 Pro in 2019. If they were to elongate the bump sideways \u2013 why would they do it without using that real estate? What does that bump achieve? Better battery? A charging point for your Apple Watch? Heck no. Maybe a display? I really think not.<\/p>\n<p>I guess my point is, that if Apple\u2019s truly going for a horizontal bump, it\u2019s definitely with the mindset of arraying the camera lenses in a horizontal manner. These renders here do not make sense as they stand, unless there was something more to them. The bump extending all the way to the right corner NEEDS to have a more substantial reason. And I believe that reason is a horizontal camera array.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-534931\" src=\"https:\/\/www.yankodesign.com\/images\/design_news\/2025\/02\/dont-believe-these-iphone-17-pro-rumors-the-phone-will-not-look-like-this\/iphone_17_pro_leak_4.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1280\" height=\"960\" data-jpibfi-post-excerpt=\"\" data-jpibfi-post-url=\"https:\/\/www.yankodesign.com\/2025\/02\/14\/stop-believing-these-iphone-17-pro-rumors-heres-why-this-design-wont-happen\/\" data-jpibfi-post-title=\"Stop Believing These iPhone 17 Pro Rumors\u2026 Here\u2019s Why This Design Won\u2019t Happen\" data-jpibfi-src=\"https:\/\/www.yankodesign.com\/images\/design_news\/2025\/02\/dont-believe-these-iphone-17-pro-rumors-the-phone-will-not-look-like-this\/iphone_17_pro_leak_4.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"lazyload alignnone size-full wp-image-534931\" src=\"https:\/\/www.yankodesign.com\/images\/design_news\/2025\/02\/dont-believe-these-iphone-17-pro-rumors-the-phone-will-not-look-like-this\/iphone_17_pro_leak_4.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1280\" height=\"960\" data-jpibfi-post-excerpt=\"\" data-jpibfi-post-url=\"https:\/\/www.yankodesign.com\/2025\/02\/14\/stop-believing-these-iphone-17-pro-rumors-heres-why-this-design-wont-happen\/\" data-jpibfi-post-title=\"Stop Believing These iPhone 17 Pro Rumors\u2026 Here\u2019s Why This Design Won\u2019t Happen\" data-jpibfi-src=\"https:\/\/www.yankodesign.com\/images\/design_news\/2025\/02\/dont-believe-these-iphone-17-pro-rumors-the-phone-will-not-look-like-this\/iphone_17_pro_leak_4.jpg\"><\/p>\n<div class=\"code-block code-block-2\" style=\"margin: 8px 0; clear: both;\">\n<div style=\"padding: 4px; margin: 18px auto 20px; text-align:center;\"><script async src=\"https:\/\/pagead2.googlesyndication.com\/pagead\/js\/adsbygoogle.js?client=ca-pub-7222236028814181\" crossorigin=\"anonymous\" type=\"a7984c10c62c21c69f4251cf-text\/javascript\"><\/script><br \/>\n<!-- In-Content-Ads-2 --><\/p>\n<p><script type=\"a7984c10c62c21c69f4251cf-text\/javascript\">\n<\/script><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"swp-hidden-panel-wrap\" style=\"display: none; visibility: collapse; opacity: 0\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"swp-content-locator\"><\/div>\n<p><!-- CONTENT END 1 -->\n                                            <\/div>\n<p><span class=\"vcard author\"><br \/>\n                            <span>By<\/span><\/p>\n<p>                                <span>Sarang Sheth<\/span><\/p>\n<p>                        <\/span><\/p>\n<blockquote><p><strong><span style=\"color: #ff6600;\">If you liked the article, do not forget to share it with your friends.
