The specs for Apple's upcoming iPhone 17 lineup might've leaked just ahead of the highly anticipated "Awe Dropping" Apple Event 2025 on Tuesday, Sept. 9.

Let's be clear, however, that these rumored specifications are just speculation, at least for the moment. The apparent leak was written up in Apple-focused publications like 9to5 Mac and Apple Insider, which cover iPhone news in granular detail. The specs in question were first posted to X by tech leaker Jukan, who claimed to have a photograph showing a complete breakdown of the specs of the entire iPhone 17 lineup. The picture in question reportedly came from a Korean mobile carrier.

The leaker's tweet, however, has since been deleted.

There have been plenty of leaks and rumors about the iPhone 17, of course. Of particular note in this rumored leak: The 17 Pro and Pro Max would have an 8x zoom as well as support for 8K video on those top-of-the-line models. The iPhone 16 Pro models have just a 5x zoom feature (rivals offer a 100x super zoom setting).

Still, it's worth noting that the specs in this particular leak are far from confirmed and, as 9to5 Mac noted, carriers at times "create documentation like this in advance of official announcements based on consensus rumors." In addition, it's very easy to create phony images using generative AI, and we can't confirm this particular leak.

Fortunately enough, we won't have to wait long until we get the true specs for the iPhone 17 lineup. It's all but a certainty we'll get the official announcement at Apple's Tuesday event.
