iPhone 17 Air vs iPhone 16 Plus: Why Apple might replace the Plus
iPhone 17 Air vs iPhone 16 Plus: Why Apple might replace the Plus By Divya Bhati There is a high chance that this year Apple might replace the Plus model with the slimmer and more refined iPhone 17 Air in its iPhone 17 series. Photo: AppleHub/X According to rumours, Apple has been facing numerous challenges with the sales of the iPhone Plus models, and is therefore finally planning to remove the model altogether. While the 16 Plus focused on a larger screen and battery, the new 17 Air is said to prioritise sleekness, portability, and cutting-edge design. The iPhone 17 Air is rumoured to feature a 5.5 mm thin design, and could become Apple's thinnest iPhone ever. Photo: iDeviceHelp/YouTube It is also said to weigh around 145 grams, targeting users who prefer portability over screen size. On the front, the iPhone 17 Air could feature a 6.6-inch screen and a 120Hz ProMotion display. Apple is also expected to introduce a new chip for the upcoming iPhones, and the iPhone 17 Air is likely to receive the A19 chip along with 8GB of RAM. However, to achieve the slimmer profile, there could be some compromises; the iPhone 17 Air is rumoured to use a single rear camera with Fusion technology, offering optical-quality zoom. The phone could also come with a smaller battery reportedly featuring a smaller 2,800mAh cell. As for the price, the iPhone 17 Air is rumored to arrive at the price point of iPhone 16 Plus somewhere around Rs 89,900 - Rs 99,900 in India. Photo: Majin Bu
