ToggleThe highly anticipated iPhone 17 Air is set to make its debut in September, alongside the iPhone 17, iPhone 17 Pro, and iPhone 17 Pro Max. This model is being touted as the slimmest iPhone to date, replacing the Plus variant in the latest lineup. As excitement builds around this next-generation smartphone, leaks have surfaced, providing a glimpse into its battery specifications, thickness, and various features. While previous reports suggest that Apple may trim some functionalities for a sleeker design, it’s crucial to note that these details remain unofficial and should be taken with caution.
Here’s a comprehensive overview of the forthcoming iPhone 17 Air.
According to rumors, Apple aims to unveil the new iPhone 17 Air at a mere 5.5mm thick, making it thinner than the newly released Galaxy S25 Edge, which measures 5.8mm. Reports suggest that the device might sacrifice battery capacity and some other features, a claim supported by recent leaks about its expected battery specifications. According to tipster Yeux1122 from Naver, the iPhone 17 Air is likely to house a 2,800mAh battery, weighing only 145g. This is a significant decrease from the iPhone 16’s robust 3,561mAh battery.
Interestingly, the tipster noted that the device may utilize high-density silicon-anode battery technology, which could potentially elevate the effective battery capacity by 15% to 20%. As an additional measure, Apple may also introduce a phone case-like accessory to tackle any battery life concerns.
Moreover, stay updated with more tech news, including a recent article discussing the upcoming OnePlus 13s India launch date set for June 5.
The iPhone 17 Air is projected to arrive with a single rear camera setup. Additionally, it may feature just one speaker and will support eSIM exclusively. In an effort to maintain its ultra-slim profile, it appears that Apple will eliminate the traditional physical SIM card slot.
The iPhone 17 Air is estimated to be priced at approximately $1,299, which translates to about Rs. 1,09,500 in India.
