Summary
OtterBox has begun selling iPhone 17 Pro cases packaged as compatible with Apple’s unreleased iPhone 18 Pro, with Bloomberg’s Mark Gurman saying Best Buy had already put them on shelves.
That claim suggests the iPhone 18 Pro may keep nearly the same chassis dimensions, button layout, cutouts and possibly camera housing as the late-2025 iPhone 17 Pro.
OtterBox appears to be making a calculated bet: if its supply-chain information is right, it gains an early accessory-market lead; if wrong, it risks returns and having to pull or relabel products.
Apple is expected to unveil the next iPhone lineup in less than a month, but the iPhone 18 Pro’s design remains unconfirmed until the company announces it.
