The iPhone 17 Pro upgrades to come at a cost?
The iPhone 17 Pro was recently spotted in the wild that more or less confirms the triple camera design overhaul for the new model this year. And a new update this week suggests Apple could bring multiple upgrades to the 17 Pro series.

iPhone 17 Pro Camera Upgrades: Three Big Feature Changes
The tipster quoted in the report claims to know the company that will be making the iPhone 17 Pro ad. He claims Apple will offer a new telephoto lens with up to 8x optical zoom which is higher than the 5x optical range available with the iPhone 16 Pro models.
The company is also expected to bring a new pro camera app which works for photos and videos. The report says the app will be designed to compete with other Pro-level iOS apps for the camera.
Apple could add another camera control button which could sit on the top edge of the iPhones that will give you easy access to the camera.

iPhone’s selfie game has been behind the rivals but the 24MP TrueDepth sensor on the front could lighten up the competition.
