Rumors circulate about Apple potentially launching the thinnest camera phone worldwide with the upcoming iPhone 17 Air model.
Gear up, tech enthusiasts! The iPhone 17 is on the horizon, and it's bringing some amazing rumors with it. Fingers crossed Apple keeps their usual release schedule with a September drop. This latest model is said to have a lineup of four phones: the main iPhone 17, the iPhone 17 Pro, the iPhone 17 Pro Max, and the hotly anticipated iPhone 17 Air.
According to whispers from sources within Apple's supply chain, the iPhone 17 Air could be replacing the discontinued 'Plus' variant. If the rumors are true, Apple might be going for a thinner and lighter phone that can go toe-to-toe with Samsung's Galaxy S25 Edge. And that's not all! The iPhone Air could reportedly be just 5.5mm thick without the camera bump, undercutting the S25 Edge's 5.8mm to claim the title of the world's thinnest non-foldable camera phone.
Now, let's talk cameras. The iPhone lineup could be seeing a serious upgrade, with reports suggesting Apple will move to a 24MP selfie camera, a significant boost up from the iPhone 16's 12MP front-facing camera. These new selfie cameras would sit alongside anticipated 48MP primary (wide-angle) cameras, with the Pro Max potentially rocking wide, ultrawide, and telephoto modules all with the same 48MP resolution. Oh, and there's even talk about 8K video recording being a possibility for the Pro Max – iPhone first!
So, there you have it! The iPhone 17 Air is shaping up to be a slick, feature-packed mid-tier option from Apple. We'll just have to wait and see what Apple delivers when the iPhone 17 lineup rolls around. Stay tuned for more updates as we get them!
