iPhone Air

The base model iPhone 17 and the iPhone 17 Air are currently expected to get ProMotion displays, but a leaker suggests these reports are only half-right.

They suggest that the non-Pro models will get the higher refresh-rate 120Hz displays, but that these will be lacking two key ProMotion features …

Apple has some major shake-ups coming to its iPhone lineup in the next few years, starting this fall when the iPhone 17 Air replaces the Plus model. My current plan is to replace my iPhone 16 Pro with the sleeker 17 Air model rather than a new Pro. Here’s why.

When Samsung unveiled the Galaxy 25 Edge, I noted that it was remarkably similar to what we’re expecting to see from the iPhone 17 Air.

I suggested that reviews of Samsung’s ultra-slim phone might provide clues to the likely reception of Apple’s ultra-slim phone – so how are things looking so far … ?

In a new post on Naver, smartphone supply chain leaker yeux1122 has shared two new details regarding Apple’s upcoming iPhone 17 Air: its battery capacity and weight.

If the latest reports are correct, Apple is just a few months away from announcing its thinnest iPhone ever. The so‑called iPhone 17 Air is expected to be just 5.5 mm thick, feature a 6.6‑inch OLED display, and replace the iPhone 16 Plus in this year’s lineup.

So, naturally, Samsung has just announced an ultra‑thin phone of its own.

By this point, we’re fairly sure we know what to expect from the iPhone 17 Air. Consistent reporting suggests that it will be an ultra-slim device, with around half the thickness of existing iPhones.

The big unknown is how many people will be willing to pay a premium for that sleek design – and Samsung’s latest phone may help answer that question …

Apple is going to debut its thinnest ever iPhone later this year, at just 5.5mm thin. While this new cutting-edge iPhone will have some compromises to shave nearly half the thickness of a normal iPhone, there’ll still be a number of features you won’t be compromising on. We’ll be delving into some of the pros and cons here.

The rumored iPhone 17 Air favors a futuristic design over a thicker and heavier look with more battery. But if everyone just throws their phone in a case, won’t the aesthetic be lost? Maybe not, according to this iPhone 17 Air case test video.

Will iPhone 17 Air be a hit? That’s the question Apple wishes it could answer in advance, since it needs to prepare enough units of the new model to reasonably meet demand. But I suspect Apple’s sales estimates, based on a recent report, might be way off.

An argument could be made that this year’s iPhone line-up will have two top-tier models, depending on your priorities: either the iPhone 17 Pro Max or the iPhone 17 Air.

If you value iPhone photography, or all-round performance, you’ll want to stick to the Pro or Pro Max. If you prioritize sleek design, you might instead consider the Air to be the best model. But Apple seems to know that its sleek new model isn’t for most people …

Apple’s flashiest new iPhone launch this year will be the iPhone 17 Air / iPhone 17 Slim, a new entrant in the lineup featuring a striking 5.5mm thin chassis.

The Air is expected to replace the current Plus SKU, with a price point in the range of $900-$1000. Based on numerous leaked schematics, the iPhone 17 Air will sport a 6.6-inch display, nestling between the Pro and the Max in terms of size. But Ming-Chi Kuo says Apple is already working on a future generation Air with a bigger screen.

New details about Apple’s rumored iPhone 17 Air have emerged today. Unsurprisingly, the thinner model will have “worse battery life” than the rest of the iPhone 17 line, but Apple will bring back a discontinued accessory to help with the issue.

This week, we got our best look yet at how impossibly thin the rumored iPhone 17 Air will feel compared to the iPhone 16 Pro. But will it still impress when used with a case?

It feels like the floodgates have opened with new iPhone 17 Air dummy models. Hands-on videos and frequent new photos have stirred a lot of excitement. Here are three reasons I expect the iPhone 17 Air to be a massive hit for Apple.

Yesterday gave us our best look yet at the upcoming iPhone 17 Air, in the form of a highly realistic dummy model shown alongside the iPhone 16 Pro.

Apple will doubtless employ a whole range of superlatives to describe the look of the device: thinnest, slimmest, sleekest … and it will of course be the <superlative>est phone they’ve ever made, and Tim will be sure we’re going to love it …

We’re probably 132 days away from the iPhone 17 actually being announced, yet it’s starting to feel like the iPhone 17 has been out for that long.

That’s probably because we’ve seen every design of iPhone 17 in various forms ranging from schematics to renderings for months. We’ve also seen cases, dummy units, dummy units in cases, and now dummy units that look so real that they could easily be mistaken for the real thing.

The latest iPhone 17 preview comes from Sam Kohl’s AppleTrack YouTube channel. In the video, Sam compares physical models meant to recreate the rumored iPhone 17, iPhone 17 Air, iPhone 17 Pro, and iPhone 17 Pro Max designs. At this rate, I’ll be disappointed if we don’t have working models running a recreation of iOS 19 by the first half of May.

iPhone colors may not matter much to some, but for plenty of users, they have the power to sway an upgrade decision. And with this year’s iPhone 17 lineup, we could see bigger color changes than usual. Here’s why.

Apple’s rumored iPhone 17 Air won’t just be thinner than the standard iPhone 17. According to analyst Ming-Chi Kuo, it may also share an important hardware feature with the iPhone 17 Pro models.

If this design leak is correct, the rumored iPhone 17 Air will be barely thicker than its side buttons at its thinnest point.

iPhone 17 Air is coming this fall as an ultra-thin new form factor, and it could pose a significant threat to the iPhone 17 Pro line. But there’s a good reason why launching the new model is worth the risk for Apple.
