iPhone Air and iPhone 17 Pro Camera Glitch Confirmed—Apple Promises Fix
Apple has confirmed reports of camera issues affecting both the iPhone Air and iPhone 17 Pro, assuring users that a software update will resolve the problem soon.
The glitch was first spotted by reviewer Henry Casey, who noticed black boxes and jagged white lines appearing in photos while testing the iPhone Air at a concert. The same problem was later found on the iPhone 17 Pro, according to a report from DigitalTrends.
Why It Matters
New tech often ships with early quirks, but quick fixes are critical for customer trust. Apple has promised a patch before launch day—so when devices begin shipping on September 19, the update may already be ready out of the box.
High Demand Despite Glitch
Pre-orders suggest massive demand for the iPhone 17 lineup, with wait times stretching up to four weeks for certain models. However, the ultra-thin iPhone Air is expected to be available on launch day.
All four new iPhones will ship with iOS 26, Apple’s biggest software overhaul in over a decade, bringing new AI features and design updates.
