Apple is poised to introduce its iPhone 17 series, along with a variety of new accessories that are sparking interest among technology fans. Here’s a glimpse at the expected accessories based on current speculation.
### TechWoven Cases
Apple is anticipated to reveal a new collection of cases known as TechWoven, set to take the place of the previously abandoned FineWoven cases. The FineWoven range encountered issues with durability, resulting in user dissatisfaction and its discontinuation after merely one year. The TechWoven cases are said to be constructed from a material akin to rPET (recycled polyethylene terephthalate), sourced from reused plastic bottles. Possible color choices for these cases are black, blue, brown, green, and purple, and they will cater to the entire iPhone 17 series.
### Crossbody Strap
Another accessory expected to make its debut with the iPhone 17 is a Crossbody Strap. This new addition is intended to complement the TechWoven cases, offering a practical method to carry the iPhone around the body. All new iPhone 17 cases are projected to include lanyard holes, while the Crossbody Strap will employ magnets for a reliable yet simple attachment.
### Smart Battery Case
Following the discontinuation of the Smart Battery Case previously, Apple might be reinvigorating this well-loved accessory with a new iteration specifically for the ultra-slim iPhone 17 Air. Reports indicate that iPhone 17 Air users may find it challenging to last through an entire day without a recharge, with only 60% to 70% able to achieve this. To counter this concern, Apple is working on a case that incorporates a battery pack, although it remains unclear if new Smart Battery Cases will be offered for the complete iPhone 17 series.
### Wildcard: Bumper Case
There are also whispers of a possible bumper case for the iPhone 17 Air, which would enable users to preserve the device’s ultra-slim profile while providing some degree of protection. This accessory is less confirmed than the rest but has been noted by industry insiders.
As the launch date nears, enthusiasm grows about which of these accessories will officially launch. Which rumored accessory excites you the most?
