The iPhone 17 Pro and Pro Max have recently been rumored to drop the physical SIM card slot altogether on a global scale, but today a new rumor comes to contradict this assertion.
A tipster over on X has shared the images you can see below, which purportedly depict the iPhone 17 Pro’s SIM card slot. Thus, the Pro and Pro Max will definitely still have a physical slot, at least in some markets. That is, of course, if this rumor pans out – we cannot independently verify that what we’re looking at here is indeed the iPhone 17 Pro’s SIM card slot. So, as usual, take all of this with a pinch of salt.

The iPhone 17 Pro is also rumored to start at 256GB of storage and sport repositioned antennas for better and more reliable reception. Its long-rumored redesigned camera island has most recently been confirmed by case maker dbrand.
The iPhone 17 family is expected to become official on September 9.
