Apple added a metal enclosure to its iPhones last year for better heat dissipation and other improvements. The same approach is expected with the upcoming iPhone 17 series, as a tipster has shared the internal layout of the iPhone 17 Pro, revealing a different-shaped battery.
Majin Bu, on his official website, showed the iPhone 17 Pro’s battery design. Interestingly, the battery dimensions vary depending on the market: in the U.S., where all handsets use eSIM for communication, the battery is designed to be wider. In China, where physical SIM trays are used, the battery design is slightly altered.
Both versions feature a metal enclosure, which aids heat dissipation and improves thermal management. This is particularly important given that rumors suggest the iPhone 17 Pro and Pro Max will ship with vapor chamber coolers.
The tipster did not mention whether there would be different charging speeds or capacities for the U.S. and Chinese variants of the iPhone 17 Pro, but it’s possible they could have distinct hardware specifications due to their differing battery designs.
