17 March 2025
The molds give us a sense of the design and a size comparison.

I'm wondering how the geniuses on here would do things differently, rather than just come here telling us "urgh, ugly"?

Of course, massive camera bumps are okay if they take up half the back of your phone.....

    The worst part about all of this is that iPhone-majority USA will just gobble these up like always.

    Apple is the world’s most valuable tech company, despite not having the majority market share in any sector worldwide, for a reason.

      Behold! The greatest design change in the history of iPhone! For this mighty elegant design change, all you need to do is just pay some extra $100 buck to Apple. This time, Apple trolled all Chinese manufacturers by replicating thier designs in itself.

        I don't see that apple charm anymore i used to see 10 years back. same goes for Samesung. Only in midrangers I see interesting handsets and theyre cheaper.

          I feel Chinese designs on the back are much more pleasing and aesthetic than iPhones. Even Google Pixel Pro Ultra etc…are looking neat! This is almost same as iPhone 11 series with a rectangle bulge on the back covering the cameras. iPhones are running out of ideas on design. I understand they do not want to knock off the accessories market with radical designs but this is almost 12-13 Years old design mostly

            that looks nothing like Poco.

              Nice new Poco design, I didn't know that Poco is going to use the same design again.. Oh wait it's Popple phones...

                    DarlingYext, 14 hours agoWeird and unnecessary design change.Apple gets bashed for not doing a design change, it's the same design every time. What would be the best design change then?

                          poco and nexus are laughing since their design were invented before iphone 17 series

                                Good thing I'm getting a Pro 16 today. Yikes.

                                    Weird and unnecessary design change.

                                      iPoco, iNexus , iXperia

                                        I thought the purpose of the island is to level with cameras and make them look even with same hight which kind of looks good, but apparently now you have like 2 steps of hight in the back of your phone. That's super super ugly.
