Apple’s next smart phone iPhone 17 Pro came up a remarkable claim. Majin, known for various leaks, suggested that the Apple logo would be replaced. The rear panel design, which has been a centered in the logo so far, is expected to change. If the claim is true, the Apple can place the logo at a different point for the first time after six years.
With the iPhone 11, the logo was moved to the middle of the device and this design line was preserved for many years. Now it is claimed that a different settlement can be used on the back surface of the iPhone 17 Pro. In the new design, the logo will be taken under the expanded camera bar. With this move, it is aimed to increase the recognition of the phone.
iPhone 17 Pro Cases are tested according to the possibility of logo location change
Another remarkable element in the sharing of Majin is that sheath manufacturers have started to test according to this new logo position. Some companies that produce sheaths for Apple products are reported to replace the Magsafe magnet ring. Thus, the visibility of the logo is preserved and a more compatible result is achieved with the design. This means a visual preparation process for the new place of the logo on the back panel.
It may sound unusual to move the logo under the camera. Considering Apple’s radical design decisions in the past, this possibility cannot be completely excluded. Previously, the logo location on the iPhone 11 was similarly leaked over the case manufacturers. Therefore, although the source of the leak seems ordinary, it can be said that the process is similar to the previous examples.
Although Apple takes care not to give details before introducing its products, third -party manufacturers in the supply chain can sometimes obtain such information early. Considering that the companies that produce cases for the iPhone work with millimeters, the new location of the logo is of great importance for them. Therefore, it is possible to see the changes in the production process of sheath manufacturers as an important signal. The same situation happened in the past, and the estimates were correct.
On the other hand, Apple’s decision may not be only aesthetic change. The company may also review the location of the logo to strengthen brand perception. In particular, the new camera module becomes a dominant visual element on the rear panel, it may require the rearrangement of the logo. Thus, both the brand identity and the overall appearance of the product can be compatible.
But how reliable this leak is still unclear. Although Majin has made some accurate predictions before, not every sharing is correct. For example, although the “Desert Titanium” color, which he envisaged for the iPhone 16 Pro, was later confirmed, was wrong in other details. Therefore, this claim needs to be cautiously evaluated.
In addition to all these, Apple usually tries to combine functionality with aesthetics in design decisions. The spread of the new camera bar to the upper part can cause the logo to be as remarkable as before. Therefore, the transport of the logo to a more visible position can be evaluated in terms of marketing and user experience. As the date of explaining the product details of the company approaches, it will be understood how realistic these claims are.
There is no definite verification yet, but considering the past experiences, such leaks become irreparable. Apple is expected to clarify all the details at the launch event in September. Until then, this type of information about the design process is considered valuable in terms of getting an idea of the final state of the device. The position of the sheath producers indicates that this change should be taken seriously.
