So then guys, can you believe it? We are less than two months away from the launch of the iPhone 17 models and particularly today I want to talk about the iPhone 17 Pro Max. What is also coming out in less than two months and today I want to go over 10 leaks and some of these are new leaks that I want to cover about today. And let’s get started with number one straight away. And that is all to do with scratch resistant screens. As you can see right here from Mac Rumors, who’s heard from a reliable source that we’re going to get a sort of scratch resistant screen. Obviously, Apple have perfected their screens now to be really good that they don’t actually get cracked as much. You have to put them under quite a lot of pressure to crack them, but to scratch them up still, it does happen quite a bit here still. But the great news is that we’ve heard at last that it definitely looks like that this kind of scratch sort of resistance on the screen is going to be coming at last. So for all you guys who get fed up with screen protectors and tampered glass or things like this, the good news is the iPhone 17 Pro and the iPhone 17 Pro Max look like they’re going to be even more resistant to scratches this time round. I cannot wait to see that video from JerryRrig Everything to see how much more resistant the screen will be. But then moving on to the second new leak we’ve heard about. You know how we’ve been talking about that the iPhone 17 Pro and the 17 Pro Max could be made out of a mix out of titanium and aluminum or aluminium, whatever you want to call it around the world. It looks like this could be completely changing. It looks like we could be going completely back to aluminum now. aluminum for the whole iPhone 17 Pro and the whole design of the iPhone 17 Pro Max. This leak coming in right here looks like just the likes of the iPhone 17 Air is going to be made out of titanium, but just the iPhone 17 Pro Max and the iPhone 17 Pro, you know, that will not actually have it. It will actually be made out of aluminum again. We could be going back to where we were with the iPhone 14 Pro models. It could be completely ditched here. So, this is a very interesting leak to see because obviously we’ve been hearing we’re going to have a bit of a mixup of kind of different materials. So, yeah, I am for one going to be interested to see how this actually turns out when the new iPhone 17 Pros have come out into our actual hands. But then for the third big leak we’ve heard about, and this is something I have slightly covered on the channel, but it’s actually changed and that is we’ve heard that for Chi 2.2, this is the kind of wireless charging standard. We heard this was going to be 50 watts wireless charging, the standard for that. Well, it seems like this was incorrect. And this actually now is 25 watts. Now, what I’m going to say is right now, if you own say an iPhone 16 Pro or an iPhone 16 Pro Max, well, the thing is to charge it up, if you want to do Max Safe charging, you have to get the new type of Max Safe and you can charge at 25 watt if you plug it into a 30 watt charger. But the thing is, if you get a third-party charger out there or anything like this, you know, with actual MagSafe kind of compatibility or wireless charging, what uses CHI 2.0 or less, well, you can only go up to 15 watts of charging. But it looks like Chi 2.2 will be 25 watt. So, the great news is here that you don’t have to buy the official Apple one. You can use a third-p party one, which supports CHI 2.2 do and you can get Mag Safe, you know, 25 watts charging this time round. So, this is fantastic news to hear with this new leak that we’ve had right here. Now, moving on to the fourth leak we’ve heard about recently, and it’s all to do with those Mag Safe magnets we just heard about. Well, it looks like they’re actually going to be lowered a bit inside of the phone for that chi 2.2 and things like this. Mainly because of this camera bump that we have on the top of the iPhone. And this means now that also the Apple logo is going to be lowered back down. Now in the past we actually did have a lower Apple logo and it got raised up but it looks like it’s been brought back down so it gets covered when you do that Mag Safe charging there. Not a big thing but just to be aware that obviously the Apple logo is going to be lowered down because the Mag Safe magnets are also going to be lower in your phone this time around. But then for the fifth big new change we’ve heard about and that is all to do with colors. And that is that the colors could also be changing a little bit more than we thought originally for the iPhone 17 Pro and the iPhone 17 Pro Max. We are going to still get the original black, the white, and then we’re also going to get that kind of silver kind of gray color, but because we’re going back to aluminum hill aluminum, something else that could be happening is we could be actually getting a new kind of gold orange color introduced for the first time. This wouldn’t be the same as desert titanium, but we may also get a dark blue color. Maybe not the sky blue. the sky blue looks like it could be going over to the iPhone 17 air instead. And this is a new leak that we’ve just had in very recently. So yeah, maybe colors could be changing all over again here. So we’ll have to watch this space to see what happens right here. Now for the sixth leak we’ve heard about, and that is all to do with the actual battery size. Now, we’ve heard that the new iPhone 17 Pro and the iPhone 17 Pro Max could be getting one of those new carbon lithium batteries put inside of it, very similar to the iPhone 16e. And what this potentially means is that battery life is going to be even better for the iPhone 17 Pro and the iPhone 17 Pro Max. We’re going to get even more hours out of it. So, especially the 17 Pro Max, it’s definitely probably going to be one of the flagship phones out there to have the best battery lives ever. But there’s some more efficiencies that come along with that. And let me tell you about that in just a second. But just quickly, the seventh big upgrade. I did talk about efficiencies before. Well, this is all to do with the A19 Pro. We’ve been told that the new A19 Pro is going to be coming out and it could even have say 3D layer caching on side of it or inside of it. So, this means instead of just, you know, data going left and right across the circuit board, it could also go up and down instead. And this means that the chip is going to be even more efficient this time round with the A19 Pro. Obviously, it’s going to be even more powerful. Whether it’s going to beat the Snapdragon 8 Elite, we’ll have to wait and see there, but it’s definitely going to be faster than the A18 Pro that we’ve had. And funny enough, that also leads onto the eighth upgrade. And it has been confirmed now we are going to be getting 12 gigabytes of RAM inside of the likes of the iPhone 17 Pro and the iPhone 17 Pro Max. A lot of other flagship phone competitors out there like Samsung with the Galaxy S25 Ultra, they also have 12 GB of RAM and it’s more than enough for Android. So, it’s definitely going to be more than enough to have inside of the likes of the iPhone 17 Pro and also the iPhone 17 Pro Max. And then after this for the ninth big upgrade we’ve heard about is finally it looks like Apple are going to be addressing the cooling problems they’ve had in previous iPhones especially I’d say ever since say the iPhone 13 14 15s and the 16s they’ve got a little bit toasty especially when you push them to their limits and it looks like that Apple going to be inventing a new kind of cooling bar vapor kind of chamber that as you can see from this leak right here and this is exciting news to hear that we are going to be guessing this in is that the phone could be definitely a bit more cooler this time round. And then finally, for the 10th big leak that we’ve heard about, and that’s all to do with the release date, and I’m also just going to cover the price while we’re at it, too. Mark Gur has said right here for the release date, and then obviously the price as well. The release date is looking to be starting on week commencing September 8th. And this is something what I’ve said as well in the past. This is most likely the week that Apple going to launch these new iPhones. And it’s going to be marrying up to the date of probably September 9th, what is a Tuesday, or September 10th, what is a Wednesday. This is when Apple are going to announce these new iPhones for the first time. But it’ll probably be about a week and a half later, probably more like September 19th when you’ll be able to get your hands on these new iPhones for the first time. Now, just moving over to the pricewise of things with these new iPhones. Well, right now the iPhone 16 Pro starts at $999. And unless tariffs interfere in the US at least, it’s going to probably most likely stay exactly the same for the iPhone 17 Pro. But for the iPhone 17 Pro Max, it’s going to stay at the same price as the 16 Pro Max. What is $1,199? But obviously you get 256 GB of storage instead of 128 what you normally get inside of the likes of the iPhone sort of 16 Pro and the 17 Pro. So that is the pricewise bits and pieces. But obviously if Terra is coming into play well yeah things could change here but keep an eye on this channel for more information about that.
