Apple fans, save the dates! Word has it that the new iPhone 17 Air will be launched in 2025. This one could be the slimmest iPhone ever. As per a report by South Korea’s Sisa Journal, the iPhone 17 Air could be around 6.25mm in thickness-dramatically reduced from the iPhone 16’s 7.88mm. It, indeed, was going to be the thinnest iPhone of all time, even beating the iPhone 6 which came in at 6.9mm.
The iPhone 17 Air is expected to maintain Apple’s signature blend of style and functionality. Rumours suggest it will include:
To achieve its ultra-slim design, Apple might compromise on some features, but it’s clear the focus is on elegance and portability.
The iPhone 17 Air could replace the Plus model in Apple’s lineup, with pricing similar to the iPhone 16 Plusstarting at $899. This move positions the Air as a mid-range option for users wanting a thin, stylish smartphone without breaking the bank.
Meanwhile, Apple isn’t alone in the race for slim devices. Samsung is reportedly developing the Galaxy S25 Slimexpected to debut in mid-2025. Rumours suggest it will be in the mid-6mm range, giving the iPhone 17 Air tough competition.
Apple fans may recall the controversy around the bending issue with the iPhone 6. Let’s hope Apple has addressed durability concerns this time, ensuring the iPhone 17 Air is both thin and robust.
2025 looks set to be the year of slim smartphones, and the iPhone 17 Air is leading the charge. Stay tuned for updates on this sleek innovation from Apple!
