Apple may be keeping the dimensions of the upcoming iPhone 18 Pro closer to its predecessor than previously expected, with a new leak suggesting that some iPhone 17 Pro cases could also fit the new model.

A case manufacturer has reportedly produced packaging that lists both the iPhone 17 Pro and iPhone 18 Pro as compatible with the same case. The packaging was shared by Mark Gurman, who also claims the cases are already being sold at Best Buy stores in the US.

The CEO of another Apple accessory company has reportedly backed up the claim, saying suppliers are also indicating that the iPhone 17 Pro cases will fit the upcoming model. He later added that the same could apply to the iPhone 17 Pro Max and iPhone 18 Pro Max.

If accurate, this would contradict several earlier reports claiming that both iPhone 18 Pro models would be thicker than their predecessors.

The conflicting reports leave some uncertainty over Apple’s final designs. Either the earlier thickness rumors were inaccurate or the latest information about case compatibility is premature. With the iPhone 18 Pro series expected to be announced in early September, we shouldn’t have to wait much longer to find out.
