iPhone 17 Pro Camera Review: Rule of Three


iPhone 17 Pro is here, a big upgrade and makeover of the iPhone and its cameras. Is it really as big of a deal as they say?

Its interface and exterior are both composed of all new materials, and some big changes under the hood (or ceramic back panel, if you will) allow for even more performance out of the latest generation Apple Silicon chip inside. And if you do, you'll have encountered your iPhone switching, at times rapidly, between the ultra wide 'macro' lens and the regular main camera — one of which produces nice natural bokeh and has far higher image quality. iOS 26, however, has been a bit of a rough start: I ran into a lot of bugs even with the latest updates installed on the iPhone 17 Pro, from bad performance (OK) to photos not showing up for a long time to distorted images and the camera app freezing or being unusable (not so OK).
