Apple may introduce its new iPhone 17 series in the month of September this year, in which the new iPhone 17 Air is also expected to be launched this time. It is being said that this upcoming iPhone is going to be the thinnest. The measurement of iPhone 17 Air can be only 5.65mm. Looking at the leaks, it is being said that the upcoming iPhone is going to be thinner than a pencil.
Apple is going to introduce its new iPhone lineup this year, which is still a few months away, but the new iPhone 17 Air coming in this lineup is already in a lot of discussion. It is being said in the leaks that this phone is going to be Apple’s thinnest iPhone ever.
A YouTuber has shared a new video online in which it has been revealed that this is a dummy unit of iPhone 17 Air. Not only this, looking at the leaks, it is being said that the upcoming iPhone is going to be thinner than a ‘pencil’. Let’s know about it…
The thickness of the iPhone 17 Air is just 5.65mm
In fact, YouTuber Lewis Hilsenteger showed in a video on his channel Unbox Therapy yesterday that the measurement of the iPhone 17 Air is just 5.65mm. If this turns out to be true, then the 17 Air will be thinner than a pencil, which is about 6mm. While earlier reports said that this new Air model could be 5.5mm thin. The YouTuber has also shown the iPhone 17 Pro Max model and said that the Max model could be about 8.75mm thick this time.
You will get only one rear camera
However, this ultra-slim phone may miss out on a lot of features. According to leaks, Apple has reduced the rear camera setup on the iPhone 17 Air, equipping it with just one rear camera. It is also being said that the battery capacity is going to be less than other models.
This time the company will replace the iPhone 17 Air with the Plus model, which has been a part of the iPhone lineup for the last few years. This will mean that Apple will continue with the regular Standard, Pro and Pro Max variants, while the Air will be introduced in a new look, focusing more on design than specs.
What could be the price
A report by Tom’s Guide suggests that Apple may keep the starting price of this new device close to the current iPhone 16 Plus, which costs around $899 in the US and Rs 89,900 in India. However, some reports indicate a price hike. Which makes the Air a premium option, even if it lacks some features.
