iPhone 17 Pro: Insider on 8x optical zoom and new cooling system

📸 iPhone 17 Pro camera: 8x optical zoom

One of the most anticipated updates will be the new telephoto lens with 8x optical zoom.

• In comparison, the iPhone 16 Pro had a maximum optical zoom of 5x.
• The new module will allow you to shoot even more detailed photos and videos at longer distances.

In addition, there have been rumors of a variable aperture for the iPhone 17 Pro/Pro Max, which will give more options for professional mobile photography.

❄️ Cooling System: Evaporative Chamber and Aluminum Body

Another major improvement is in thermal conductivity and cooling.

• Smartphones will get an evaporative chamber, a solution that has long been used in gaming smartphones to reduce heat.
• Instead of titanium, the iPhone 17 Pro may be made of aluminum, which should further reduce overheating.

Thus, users will be able to play games, shoot videos and use AR/VR functions for longer without overheating the gadget.

🔮 What else to expect from iPhone 17 Pro?

• Improved variable aperture cameras.
• A more power-efficient A-series processor.
• Thinner bezels and an updated design.

📝 Bottom line 📝

Insights about the iPhone 17 Pro point to major improvements to the camera and cooling system. If the leaks are confirmed, the new smartphone will get an 8x optical zoom and an evaporative cooling camera, while the aluminum body will make the device less hot under heavy load.
