Take this one with a grain or salt: earlier today Fox Puppy on X posted a couple of pictures that supposedly showed someone filming an iPhone 17 Pro in the street using an iPhone 16 Pro which, for some strange reason, had its Apple logo covered.
This looks legit.
There’s no way to confirm the claims, but Fox Puppy says one of the people accompanying him was “security and trying to go infront of the iPhone to conceal it.”
The original post is here:
Both photos show the iPhone clearly enclosed in a thick, black case. No other hardware details can be seen, except for the apparently silver camera rings on the left and the relocated LiDAR and flash on the right side of the iPhone These positions are consistent to the mockups or leaks of the last few months.
Adding to the “who knows?” of it all, Bloomberg’s Mark Gurman quote-tweeted the photo, saying “This looks legit”, which quickly sparked another round of speculation, as some questioned whether he was being sarcastic.
Be that as it may, while we’ll probably never know the full story behind today’s sighting, the image (whether it shows a mockup in a content creator’s hands or a real production unit caught in the wild) only adds to the anticipation, with the next iPhones now just weeks away from their official debut.
Do you think this was the real thing? Let us know in the comments.
