  • The iPhone 17 Pro Max will reportedly pack an upgraded cooling system incorporating a vapor chamber and graphite sheets.
  • The lower-end iPhone 17 models will likely retain the existing graphite sheets for thermal management.
  • Certain Android phone manufacturers, including Google, Samsung, and OnePlus, already offer vapor chambers in some of their devices.

Although the iPhone 16 launch is still a couple of weeks away, the rumor mill has already shifted its focus to next year’s big release. According to a new report, the iPhone 17 Pro Max will exclusively introduce an upgraded cooling system. This could bundle the existing graphite sheets with a new vapor chamber.
