Leaked photos of what's believed to be the new iPhone 17 have been shared online.
The popular piece of tech could be set to face its biggest redesign in years ahead of its rumored release later this year.
Typically, Apple announces all of its new releases in September time, meaning the multinational corporation will currently be in the midst of creating the highly anticipated iPhone 17.

Apple are known for debuting different versions of its iPhone, and they're said to be releasing an 'Air' version of the next phone — a slimmed down version of the device.
Early rumors about the next iPhone has suggest that Apple 'might replace titanium with aluminum'.
"We've heard rumors indicating that the iPhone 17 Pro models will have a half-glass half-aluminum exterior, with the glass portion still allowing for MagSafe charging," says MacRumors.
"This update could come alongside a camera design change, with Apple perhaps opting for a horizontal pill-shaped camera bump rather than the traditional square camera bump.
"We've also heard that the iPhone 17 Air could have a horizontal camera bump, so this may be a design change that we'll see for multiple iPhones in the lineup."
And these predictions may have just been proven right, with leaked photos of the alleged iPhone 17 showing 'dummy models' shared online.
The snap was posted by Twitter user Sonny Dickson on Sunday (March 16) and show four different phones, all in varying sizes, thickness, and camera placements.
One device has just one camera, another had two, while the final two had three cameras.
As suggested by MacRumors, three of the devices have horizontal camera 'bumps'.
The devices are individually labelled 'ip 17 pormax', 'ip 17 pro', 'ip 17 air', and 'ip17'.
People have wasted no time in sharing their thoughts on the leaked snaps and what could be the iPhone 17's design.
"These are the ugliest iPhones in history. Wow," one person wrote.
"Think the air with 1 camera is going to be an interesting one," said another.
"Base model even has 2! Big phone users HAVE to go Pro Max if they want more than one lens at that size," they continued.
"I will not be the one buying any of them this time. Apple designs are falling off a cliff like its scam AI," wrote another critic.
Others compared the phones to a Google Pixel, claiming it looked quite similar.
