iPhone 17 Air: Apple is preparing to unveil the iPhone 17 series sometime in the next few weeks, and one of the most highly anticipated additions is said to be a new, possibly rebranded model—the iPhone 17 Air. According to leaks and rumors, this extremely thin device could replace the standard "Plus" version.

What Is the iPhone 17 Air?

Rumors indicate that the iPhone 17 Air may be one of Apple's lightest and thinnest phones yet, at only 5.5 mm thick. While it's said to pack a premium and sleek look, it may also have some sacrifices—like a single rear camera and smaller battery—to achieve its extremely thin form factor.

Aimed at rivaling phones such as the Samsung Galaxy S25 Edge, the iPhone 17 Air is becoming a stripped-down choice in the high-end category.

Anticipated Launch Schedule

As per initial leaks, Apple is likely to release the whole iPhone 17 series—such as the iPhone 17 Air—at an event on September 8 or 9. If Apple follows its traditional release cycle, the phones will hit stores on or around September 19. Please do keep in mind, however, that none of this has been officially announced yet.

Specs and Features (As Rumoured)

Here's what we could expect in the iPhone 17 Air:

  • Display: 6.6-inch OLED with a 120 Hz refresh rate
  • Processor: Expected to come equipped with Apple's new A19 Pro chip
  • RAM: Enough for at least 8GB, which will most likely support Apple Intelligence features
  • Battery: Estimated at 3,000 mAh, which might give good performance considering the slim design
  • Camera Setup:
  • Rear: 48MP primary camera
  • Front: 24MP selfie camera

All these specs are according to leaks and may change when the final device arrives.

Expected Price in India

Industry predictions suggest that the iPhone 17 Air could be priced around ₹90,000 in India. Since this is just an early estimate, we’ll need to wait for the official launch to know where it fits in Apple’s lineup.
