Right here’s one to take with a grain of salt: earlier at the moment, consumer Fox Pet on X revealed a few pictures that supposedly present somebody filming an iPhone 17 Professional on the road, utilizing an iPhone 16 Professional that, for some motive, has its Apple brand coated.
‘This appears legit’
Whereas there’s no method to confirm the claims, Fox Pet says that one of many individuals accompanying the person filming “was safety and making an attempt to go in entrance of the iPhone to cover it.”
Right here’s the unique submit:
In each pictures, the iPhone is clearly inside a thick black case, so no different {hardware} particulars are seen, aside from apparently swhiilver digital camera rings to the left, and the relocated LiDAR sensor and flash to the fitting, on the again of the iPhone within the first picture. These positions are according to the mockups and leaks from the previous few months.
Including to the “who is aware of?” of all of it, Bloomberg’s Mark Gurman quote-tweeted the picture, saying “This appears legit”, which rapidly sparked one other spherical of hypothesis, as some questioned whether or not he was being sarcastic.
Be that as it could, whereas we’ll most likely by no means know the complete story behind at the moment’s sighting, the picture (whether or not it reveals a mockup in a content material creator’s fingers or an actual manufacturing unit caught within the wild) solely provides to the anticipation, with the subsequent iPhones now simply weeks away from their official debut.
Do you suppose this was the actual factor? Tell us within the feedback.
