Amid global anticipation, Apple is set to launch its new "iPhone 17 Air," which leaks suggest will be the world's thinnest smartphone for 2025.
As details about the design and potential specifications emerge, questions arise about Apple's ability to deliver such a thin device without compromising on battery performance, camera quality, and other technical features. اضافة اعلان The Thinnest Smartphone on the Market According to leaks shared by the famous tech account "Ice Universe," the "iPhone 17 Air" will measure only 5.5 mm in thickness, making it very close to breaking the record for the thinnest available smartphone. While its length and width will match the iPhone 17 Pro dimensions, the side thickness will be the key differentiator. When compared to competitors, the "iPhone 17 Air" could surpass the upcoming Galaxy S25 Edge from Samsung, which is rumored to have a thickness ranging between 5.85 mm and 6.4 mm. It also beats the Spark Slim from Tecno, which appeared at the 2025 Mobile World Congress with a thickness of 5.7 mm, although it won't be the thinnest smartphone ever, as the Vivo X5 Max from 2014 still holds the record at 4.75 mm, surpassing the Oppo R5 at the time. Technical Trade-offs for Thinness Although the slim design gives the "iPhone 17 Air" an aesthetic advantage, it comes at the expense of certain features. According to leaks, Apple will equip the phone with only a single rear camera, while most competing phones still use dual or triple camera systems. A report from Digital Trends suggests that Apple will rely on a high-density battery to compensate for the phone's small size. The company is also likely to use silicon-carbon battery technology, which has a higher energy density and helps improve battery life without affecting charging speed. Will It Replace the "Plus" Model? Leaks indicate that the "iPhone 17 Air" will replace the "Plus" model, which Apple plans to discontinue this year. However, it is expected that the phone will come at a higher price than the iPhone 16 Plus, especially with the anticipation of using an updated version of the C1 modem that first appeared in the iPhone 16e. Launch Date As usual, Apple is expected to unveil the iPhone 17 series during its annual event in September.
