Listen to the story

The leaked images of the iPhone 17 Air have taken the Internet from the storm, increasing enthusiasm among technical enthusiasts. The latest leak has highlighted the upcoming iPhone 17 Air Slim profile. Thanks to its 5.65 mm thickness, one hand video claims that it is diluted as a pencil. Although it is true that Apple plans to compromise some features to complete the slim profile, the rumor is that the iPhone 17 Air will not be less than a supporter. In this article, let us focus on upcoming high-end features, which are rumors to improve the iPhone 17 further.
iPhone 17 Air: 5 major upcoming facilities
12 GB RAM: Analyst Ming-Chi Kuo has recently suggested that Apple iPhone 17 Air and iPhone 17 Pro may equip both both with the same RAM specifications-12 GB. This step, if true, marks a departure from the general practice of increasing the general practice of the company for the Top-Tyer Pro Max model. This feature will promote the performance of the iPhone 17 Air, which may provide a flagship-tier experience, despite the low premium branding within the range. Reports suggest that Apple AI is re -evaluating its strategy due to capabilities and developing demands for multitasking performance.
Battery: Ever since the slim profile picture of iPhone 17 Air has come in the picture, concerns about the battery have been quite popular. However, previous reports have suggested that Apple is ensuring that the iPhone will pull the impressive battery glasses, especially in relation to its thinness. Apple is allegedly working on two major innovations to ensure that the iPhone 17 air maintains strong battery life despite its ultra-slim design. One includes performance to promote energy efficiency and a full new form of internal silicon, while other centers are at the introduction of high density battery cells, which are capable of providing more power in a small footprint.
Apple’s in-house 5G modem: Another notable change can lie below the surface. The iPhone 17 Air is estimated to introduce its 5G modem of Apple, replacing the current solution supplied by Qualcomm. This will create the second iPhone using Apple’s in-house modem after the iPhone 16E (review). The custom-designed modem is allegedly capable of downloading the speed reaching 4GBPs, although it may lack support for MMWAVE 5G.
In addition, the iPhone 17 Air is expected to facilitate the new custom-made C1 modem of Apple, designed to cut power use during 5G connectivity-a frequent problems that users have faced with battery drain on mobile networks.
A19 chipset: When it comes to performance, the iPhone 17 Air is expected to facilitate the standard A19 chipset of Apple. Although the pro -variants are likely to receive more advanced A19 Pro chip, regular A19 is still anticipated to give impressive display suitable for the vast majority of users. This approach can allow apple to be kept at the iPhone 17 at a more accessible price point, appealing to those who are selected for a high-end Pro range without looking for a smooth and competent iPhone.
120Hz Publicity Demonstration: Apple plans to introduce 120Hz promotion display throughout the iPhone 17 range, including the iPhone 17 Air, not only the Pro version. Always added with performance functionality, this increase is expected to improve the overall lubrication and accountability significantly, whether you are scrolling through apps or playing games.
In addition, rumors indicate the introduction of a new anti-distinct and scratch-resistant coating on all models. This upgrade will not only promote screen clarity in bright conditions, but will also provide greater durability by reducing dependence on external screen protectors.
iPhone 17 Air: India Price (Expected)
Apple has not yet confirmed any official pricing for the iPhone 17 Air, but a report by Tom’s guide suggests that the company’s purpose may be to keep the base price to conform to the current iPhone 16 Plus. If it proves to be accurate, the price of iPhone 17Air can start from $ 899 in the US and Rs 89,900 in India. However, other sources indicate that the price can be more than the iPhone 16 Pro Max, which currently starts at $ 1,199 in the US and Rs 1,44,900 in India.
On a broader scale, global business dynamics can also affect pricing. The US government recently gave temporary tariff exemption on smartphones such as electronics, potentially allowed Apple to avoid passing additional costs from China-based production. However, with US elections and trade policies in the flux, the final pricing of the iPhone 17 lineup is uncertain.
