Jon Prosser, the outspoken face of Front Page Tech (FPT), is once again pushing the boundaries in Apple leak culture. Less than a month after Apple filed a lawsuit against him, accusing Prosser of stealing trade secrets by allegedly accessing a developmental iPhone containing iOS 26 app designs, the YouTuber is back with what he claims are “near final” iPhone 17 Pro renders—and he’s not holding back on Apple or his critics.
The Lawsuit: Apple vs. Prosser
Apple’s recent legal action alleged that Prosser used information leaked from a developmental iPhone to preview iOS 26 designs. Prosser denied the accusations in a series of tweets, but many expected FPT to lay low while the case played out. Instead, Prosser released a new video featuring bold renders of the upcoming iPhone 17 Pro, making light of the lawsuit with on-screen jokes and speculation warnings.
New Renders—And What They Claim
According to Prosser, the iPhone 17 Pro render he shared is “near final,” with mass production set to begin soon. The visuals show a side-to-side camera bar, which Prosser speculates is meant to accommodate a next-generation periscope lens, promising optical zoom beyond the current 120mm focal length and a jump to a 48MP Telephoto camera—up from the 12MP sensors found on the iPhone 16 Pro lineup.
Other leaks from the new FPT video include:
- Thickness: The iPhone 17 Pro will reportedly be 8.73mm thick, nearly half a millimeter thicker than the iPhone 16 Pro (8.25mm).
- New Colors: Apple is said to be testing an orange color for the 2025 Pro models, supported by recent dummy units making waves online.
- Logo Placement: The Apple logo on the back may be shifting slightly lower—a rumor now echoed by Prosser.
- Larger Battery Potential: There’s renewed chatter about Apple fitting a 5,000mAh battery into the iPhone 17 Pro Max, a substantial jump in iPhone battery capacity.
Style, Substance, and Speculation
Prosser doesn’t shy away from poking fun at the situation, even placing a humorous “don’t sue me” disclaimer as he speculates on design choices. He also continues his long-running rivalry with Bloomberg’s Mark Gurman, calling out past prediction misses, notably the infamous flat-edge Apple Watch Series 7 renders that neither Prosser nor Gurman got right.
Accuracy and Reputation
The community is split—some view Apple’s legal action as proof that Prosser’s information is accurate, while others point to his less successful past predictions as reason for skepticism. Nevertheless, Prosser remains undeterred, and the “FPT Toilet Squad” continues to support his leak-driven reporting style.
Final Thoughts
Jon Prosser’s latest move underscores his role as one of the most polarizing figures in Apple leak culture. As the lawsuit unfolds, Prosser is doubling down, using his platform to reveal new renders and design details that may shape expectations for the 2025 iPhone lineup. Whether Apple will respond to these new leaks in court or otherwise remains to be seen, but one thing is clear: Prosser isn’t backing down—and the leaked images of the iPhone 17 Pro, camera upgrades, and bold new colors have certainly raised excitement, speculation… and a few eyebrows.
