- A new leak reveals the total thickness of the iPhone 17 Air, including its camera bump.
- Expected to feature a Titanium frame, A18/A19 chip, and enhanced AI capabilities.
- Set to be one of Apple’s priciest models, with a rumored price between $1,299 and $1,500.
How Thin Will the iPhone 17 Air Be?
Apple is reportedly ditching the ‘Plus’ variant for a brand-new iPhone 17 Air, also known as the iPhone 17 Slim. A fresh leak suggests that this could be Apple’s thinnest smartphone ever. According to tipster Ice Universe, the device’s body will measure just 5.5mm thick, but with the camera bump, the total thickness increases to 9.5mm. Earlier reports suggested the phone could be around 6.25mm, making this one of Apple’s slimmest designs to date.
For comparison, the iPhone 16 measures 7.8mm thick, meaning the iPhone 17 Air could be significantly sleeker. If true, this would mark a major design shift, giving Apple an ultra-thin flagship that competes with the lightest premium smartphones on the market.
What Else to Expect?
The iPhone 17 Air is rumored to feature a 6.6-inch OLED display with a 120Hz ProMotion refresh rate and Dynamic Island. Under the hood, it could run on either the A18 or A19 chip, paired with 8GB RAM and Apple’s AI-powered Apple Intelligence features. The phone is also expected to use Apple’s in-house 5G and Wi-Fi chips, promising better connectivity and efficiency.
Camera-wise, leaks suggest a 24MP front camera and a 48MP single rear camera, which could indicate a focus on software-driven photography improvements rather than multiple lenses.
How Much Will It Cost?
With its premium Titanium frame, the iPhone 17 Air is expected to be one of the most expensive models in the lineup. Reports suggest a price range between $1,299 and $1,500 (approximately ₹1,09,000 to ₹1,26,000 in India).
While Apple hasn’t officially confirmed these details, the iPhone 17 Air is shaping up to be one of the most exciting releases of the year. Stay tuned for more leaks as we get closer to launch!
