Apple is gearing up for the anticipated launch of the iPhone 17 series next month, with a highlight on its revamped rear camera design. However, a surprising turn of events has unfolded as a counterfeit version of the Pro model has hit the market, almost perfectly replicating the impressive camera setup.
This fake iPhone 17 Pro runs on the Android operating system, mimicking the interface of iOS 18 (released last year) instead of the latest iOS 26. While it may look similar to the genuine article from a distance, a closer inspection reveals telltale signs of a fake, including uneven screen bezels, a thicker “chin,” and a lower-quality LCD display compared to Apple’s AMOLED screens.

What’s remarkable is the attention to detail on the back, with lens positions and sizes so accurately replicated that it would be challenging to distinguish from the real deal without a side-by-side comparison. This underscores the risks associated with purchasing iPhones from unofficial channels at suspiciously low prices, especially for those less tech-savvy.
As for the legitimate iPhone 17 Pro, leaks suggest significant camera upgrades: a bump in resolution for the front camera to 24MP from 12MP and a 48MP telephoto lens with 5x optical zoom, up from 12MP. The main camera is expected to retain the same sensor and resolution as its predecessor. The device will reportedly feature the new A19 Pro chip, delivering enhanced performance, improved heat dissipation, and longer battery life. Standard RAM is also getting a boost to 12GB from 8GB, promising smoother overall performance.
