Apple fans are blown away after an iPhone 17 Pro owner shares the smartphone's camera zoom that stretches for miles.
Since Apple's WWDC event earlier this month, its offerings have received mixed feedback.
While Apple wowed fans with four new models, including the game-changing iPhone Air, the new software hasn’t been met without controversy.
Some users have criticised iOS 26’s 'Liquid Glass' interface, calling it a downgrade and searching for ways to reverse the update, while others are stunned at the price of Apple’s latest accessories.

The iPhone 17 Pro has had mixed feedback since its launch earlier this month.
But after several people have been getting their hands on the iPhone 17 Pro, users are realising how far the tech has come, particularly in the resolution of the device's camera.

TikToker Lorenzo Chiaraluce (@lorenzochiaraluce) shared a jaw-dropping image zoomed in on Wembley Stadium from his dining table in Wandsworth Town, over 18km away. The content creator captioned on the overlay of the video: "iPhone 17 Pro really said ZOOM."
The post has gone viral, with many fans commenting in awe.
"It just kept going," wrote one TikTok user.
Another Apple fan replied: "I seriously want this phone so badly just for the photography".

Someone else on the social media platform commented: "With the next model you should be able to actually watch the game" while another expressed in disbelief: "No way an iPhone is doing this."
Others poked fun at the comparison of Apple's upgrade to older Android phones.
"Samsung can do this with a phone from 2019," one joked, whilst another chimed in: "Samsung laughing from 2019".

According to the tech giant, the iPhone 17 Pro features the 'longest iPhone Telephoto ever, up to an equivalent 200mm focal length, with the next generation of our tetraprism design and 56 per cent larger sensor.'
Apple claims this allows for '16x optical zoom range' for better 'low-light photographs and incredible video.'
The company officially launched the iPhone 17 series on 19 September. Prices start at £1,099 for the 256GB model, £1,299 for the 512GB and £1,499 for the 1TB. The phones are available in Silver, Deep Blue and a new Cosmic Orange.
The new iPhone release has even impressed the likes of OpenAI CEO Sam Altman.

"First new iPhone upgrade I have really wanted in a while," Altman commented on X following the Apple event, specifying the new ultra-thin and ultra-lightweight iPhone Air.
It might even pair perfectly with OpenAI’s yet-to-be-announced 'third core device,' which the company has been developing in collaboration with former Apple design icon Jony Ive.
