iPhone 17 Pro Dummy Units Spotted in New Colors Ahead of Launch
A new video has surfaced online showing the iPhone 17 Pro in multiple colors. These are not real working phones but dummy units which means they are empty inside but still give us a good idea of how the final product will look.
The iPhone 17 Pro is expected to be officially launched in September along with the rest of the iPhone 17 series. The launch date could be September 8 or possibly the 9th or 10th.
One of the biggest changes seen in the dummy models is on the back of the phone. The new design includes a large camera island that stretches almost across the entire width of the phone. This style is similar to Poco phones from around two years ago.
While the cameras remain in the same positions as before they are now part of a much larger design area giving the phone a new and bold look.
Fans will have to wait a bit longer to see the real thing but these dummy units give a good early look at what’s coming next from Apple.
Google has already revealed the design of all four Pixel 10 series phones and confirmed that the official launch event will take place on August 20. But a new tip gives us a possible answer to the next big question — when can you buy one?
According to a source working at a phone retail shop, the Pixel 10 Pro will go on sale on August 20, the same day as the launch event. This may mark the start of pre-orders, with deliveries and open sales likely to begin a few days later.
While this tip focuses only on the 10 Pro, there’s a chance the entire Pixel 10 lineup could follow a similar schedule. Last year, Google launched the Pixel 9 and 9 Pro XL in August, while the smaller Pro and Fold models arrived in September. But this time, it seems likely the 10 Pro and 10 Pro XL will launch together. The Pixel 10 Pro Fold’s timeline remains uncertain.
If the Pixel 10 series follows the same pattern as the Pixel 9 series:
- Unveil and pre-orders: August 20
- Shipping and open sales: Likely to begin around August 29
It’s also possible that the Pixel Watch 4 and Pixel Buds 2a will launch on a similar timeline, as Google tends to bundle announcements and sales for its ecosystem of devices.
While this information can’t be fully confirmed yet it does line up with Google’s usual release strategy so fans can expect more official news very soon.
Oppo launched the K13 Turbo series smartphones in China last week, and it has been teasing these phones in India for the past few days. Oppo hasn’t revealed when it will launch the K13 Turbo series in India, but we’ve learned from a reliable source that the lineup will debut in India in the week of August 11. To be more precise, between August 11 and August 14.
Oppo’s K13 Turbo series includes two phones – the Oppo K13 Turbo and the Oppo K13 Turbo Pro. Both have similar designs and specs, with the most significant difference being the chipset. The K13 Turbo is powered by the Dimensity 8450 SoC, while the K13 Turbo Pro has the Snapdragon 8s Gen 4 chip at the helm.
One of the biggest highlights of these phones is the built-in cooling fan, advertised to help the devices run 2–4°C cooler under high-load conditions. Oppo’s Indian branch said this fan module will be IPX6, IPX8, and IPX9-rated, and the smartphones will have 7,000 mAh batteries under the hood.
We are yet to get an official confirmation on whether or not the Oppo K13 Turbo and K13 Turbo Pro’s Indian models will share the design and specs with their Chinese counterparts.
