A few days ago, we got our first look at what was then reported as the iPhone 17 Air’s battery. It turns out the images are actually for the iPhone 17 Pro’s cell and leakster Majin Bu has now revised his initial report and added additional images.
iPhone 17 Pro US version (eSIM)
The iPhone 17 Pro will employ an L-shaped design with a steel casing, just like the iPhone 16 Pro. The images also show the distinct differences between the batteries for the US and Chinese versions.
iPhone 17 Pro Chinese version (physical SIM slot)
The version for the US market features a larger battery casing as the phone lacks a physical SIM slot. The Chinese model has a dedicated SIM slot, which takes up additional space. Despite the larger battery casing on the US version, it’s unlikely that it would feature a larger battery cell.

The updated steel casing is rumored to offer improved heat dissipation. We can also notice the reduced area for the logic board on the top side. Apple is rumored to be using a new adhesive around the battery, which is said to make replacements a tad easier.
According to a rumor from last month, the iPhone 17 series is expected to launch in the second week of September.
