This is how thin the rumoured iPhone 17 Air is expected to be | Tech Tips
A recent report suggested that the iPhone 17 Air might compromise on several aspects in order to maintain its thinness. Now, a similar report has appeared online that indicates the same thing, and not only that, but it has also revealed the expected thinness of the upcoming iPhone. It is worth noting that the official details of the iPhone 17 Air are yet to be revealed, but some reports hint that the phone will replace the Plus models. Here’s more about the iPhone 17 Air.
iPhone 17 Air thinness details tipped
- As per a new report from analyst Ming-Chi Kuo on Medium, the iPhone 17 Air will have a thickness of around 5.5mm at its thinnest point. In comparison, the recent 13-inch iPad Pro is 5.1mm thick.
- While the yet-to-be-announced iPhone 17 Air is unlikely to match the iPad Pro’s thickness due to its smaller size in other areas, it will come very close if the rumours are to be believed.
- The iPhone will likely not have a physical SIM card slot and will only support eSIM due to its thin design, which could lead to shipping issues in China, as the country does not favour phones that rely solely on eSIM.
- If this information by the analyst turns out to be true, the iPhone 17 Air could become the thinnest iPhone ever, beating the 6.9mm thickness of the iPhone 6, which was announced in 2014.
iPhone 17 Air: what to expect?
- The upcoming iPhone 17 Air is expected to be priced lower than the Pro models and could be priced around $900 (around Rs 77,803), similar to the iPhone 16 Plus.
- A recent leak indicated that the iPhone 17 Air will have one speaker, feature a 48MP single camera, and include an in-house 5G modem to keep the device slim.
- The iPhone 17 Air is also expected to have a smaller battery than the regular iPhone 16 to keep the size of the phone compact.
