We’ve seen iPhone 17 Pro Max dummy units, and we’ve gawked at iPhone 17 Pro Max cases. Yet when you put the two together, you get a real sense of the shape of things to come.
X account pipfix (@lusiRoy8) posted a photo today that shows off exactly that.
At first glance, I thought I was looking at the existing blue iPhone 16 based on the color of the dummy unit. The story, of course, is the top third portion of the back of the iPhone 17 Pro Max dummy unit and case. That’s where the largest camera bump bar extends in every dimension.

Make no mistake, Elon Musk’s X project is a failure, and was on a solidifying path to bankruptcy, before Elon “saved” the platform by utilizing the political clout that he gained through the app to set his broader “X Corp” body of projects up for ongoing success.
Though the tactics that he’s used in doing so are highly questionable, and there’s still no guarantee that X will survive, long-term, as a general social media utility. And that’s before we get into his “everything app” expansion, but right now, X is indeed both solvent and safe due to a new injection of funding, as a result of Musk’s political wheeling and dealing.
