iPhone 17 Pro’s bold rumoured camera bar sparks creative accessory boom: Report

Apple’s upcoming iPhone 17 Pro is generating buzz for more than just its hardware upgrades — it is the newly rumoured horizontal camera bar that is grabbing headlines. While some have labelled the design “unattractive”, accessory makers appear to be turning this bold aesthetic shift into a creative opportunity.

A recent leak by tipster Majin Bu on X suggests that accessory manufacturers are already hard at work designing camera covers specifically for the iPhone 17 Pro’s extended horizontal camera array. These are not your standard lens protectors — they are fully customised add-ons that aim to offer both protection and personal flair.
