Vapor Chamber Cooling Could Be Coming to iPhone 17 Pro, Leaks Suggest

The iPhone 17 Pro and Pro Max could introduce a vapor chamber cooling system, a feature common in Android flagships like the Galaxy S25 Ultra. This would be a first for Apple, and potentially a significant upgrade. The thermal management system is designed to prevent overheating during demanding tasks such as gaming and video editing. Leaks show images of a copper thermal plate that indicates the inclusion of a vapor chamber. This technology is expected to help the A19 Pro chip to maintain performance even when used heavily. Alongside the cooling improvements, the iPhone 17 Pro is also rumored to have a 24MP front camera, triple 48MP rear cameras, 8K video recording capabilities, thinner bezels, a 120Hz ProMotion display, and a new aluminum frame. The anticipated launch of the iPhone 17 series is in September 2025, with pricing starting around ₹79,999 in India for the base model.
