The iPhone 17 line up just keeps getting weirder

We've been complaining for a while that Apple seems to be stagnating from a design perspective. With the iPhone approaching its 20th anniversary, there doesn't seem to be a lot of innovation left when it comes to the design of the small black rectangle. But if the iPhone 17 rumour mill is anything to go by, Apple is going to try its damnedest to prove us wrong this year.

We've already seen renders of the somewhat baffling so-called iPhone 17 Air, which seems to be sacrificing a lot (two camera lenses, presumably a ton of battery life) in pursuit of thinness at all costs. And now we've seen renders of the alleged iPhone 17 Pro, which are... even weirder. Let's just say, with a camera layout like that, it had better end up being one of the best cameraphones.
