Listen to the story
iPhones are probably the only smartphones in the world that generates a lot of publicity even before their launch. A prominent example is the iPhone 17 series, based on Apple’s previous schedule, still about seven months away from its official launch. However, it has not stopped leaks and rumors from what to expect. According to speculation, Apple will once again release four iPhone models: iPhone 17, iPhone 17 Pro, iPhone 17 Pro Max, and a new addition – iPhone 17 Air. Reports show that this new model will replace the iPhone Plus variant.
Several sources, including Mark Gurman, claim that Apple iPhone 17 can turn off the plus model in favor of Air, which is expected to be slimmer compared to any previous iPhone. But what will the iPhone 17 air look like, and what will Apple compromise to get a thin design? There are seven expected features of the upcoming iPhone 17 Air.
High-hearted design
The leak suggests that the iPhone 17 will be a extremely thin body in the air, with thickness between 5.5 mm and 6 mm. If true, it will make it one of the thinning iPhones apples that have been made anytime. However, it can come up with some trade-off in case of slim profile features and specifications.
Unique rear camera design
The latest leak renders show a separate rear camera design. Unlike most modern iPhones with several cameras, the iPhone 17 in the air features a single rear camera placed within a major rectangular camera module. Despite having only one lens, the camera bump looks quite large.
48-megapixel primary camera
Keeping in mind its minimum approach, the iPhone 17 Air is expected to include a single 48-megapixel rear camera. It marks a change from several-camera setups seen on other iPhones. The front camera is rumored to be 24 megapixels with a six-element lens. To maintain your smooth look, Apple can remove the speaker below, only rely on an earpiece speaker.
New performance size
The iPhone 17 Air features a 6.6 -inch OLED display, which is positioning it between the iPhone 17 Pro and Pro Max in terms of size. Apple is expected to introduce his promotional technology in the entire iPhone 17 lineup, which can lead to a smooth 120Hz refresh rate. The display will support the dynamic island, face ID and anti-reflective coating that will be to increase durability and visibility.
A19 chip device power
The iPhone 17 Air is expected to be equipped with the A19 chip from Apple, which will be based on a better 3Nm process. Although it will not be powerful as the A19 Pro chip in the Pro model, it should still provide rapid performance and better efficiency than its predecessor, A18 chip. The device is expected to come up with 8GB of RAM, which is supporting multitasking and supporting the new AI-operated Apple Intelligence features.
Apple’s in-house 5G modem
A major change can be an infection in its 5G modem, which is moving away from third-party suppliers such as Qualcomm and Intel. The iPhone 17 Air is expected to adopt this in-house modem, which is first ready to debut on the iPhone SE 4.
Small battery capacity
Due to its ultra-splutter design, the iPhone 17 Air will have a small battery compared to other iPhone 17 models. While the exact battery details remain unclear, the apple may rely on the power-skilled A19 chip and a LTPO display to maximize life despite the low capacity.
