Apple is set to shake up its 2025 iPhone lineup with a brand-new model—the iPhone 17 Air, which is rumored to replace the iPhone Plus variant.
What makes this model stand out? Reports suggest that the iPhone 17 Air will be Apple’s thinnest iPhone ever, featuring an ultra-slim design inspired by the M4 iPad Pro. At just 5.5mm at its thinnest point, it could redefine smartphone aesthetics.
In a surprising move, the iPhone 17 Air may come with just one rear camera, similar to the upcoming iPhone SE 4. Leaks indicate that Apple will equip it with a 48MP single rear camera in a unique ‘camera bar’ design. While most modern iPhones feature dual or triple cameras, Apple is expected to leverage advanced software enhancements to deliver top-tier photography performance.
On the front, the iPhone 17 Air will sport a 6.6-inch display, positioned between the 6.3-inch iPhone 17 Pro and the 6.9-inch iPhone 17 Pro Max.
If these leaks turn out to be true, the iPhone 17 Air could be a sleek and lightweight alternative in Apple’s 2025 lineup, focusing on a minimalist camera setup with powerful software-driven enhancements.
