Apple is expected to merchandise its thinnest telephone yet later this twelvemonth pinch the iPhone 17 Air. Rumors person held that the telephone will beryllium thinner than the 6.9mm iPhone 6 was, but caller leaks springiness america a amended thought than we’ve had earlier of what to expect.
Rumors of the iPhone 17 Air’s dimensions person ranged complete the past respective months, but a caller 1 from leaker Ice Universe puts it astatine conscionable 5.5mm thick, thing that Ming-Chi Kuo predicted successful January. Another analyst, Jeff Pu, said earlier that it would beryllium much for illustration 6mm.
But wherever Kuo said the telephone will person a 6.6-inch screen, Ice Universe says it’ll really beryllium 6.9 inches for illustration the iPhone 17 Pro Max — they opportunity some phones will person the aforesaid “length, width, surface size, and bezel” arsenic the iPhone 16 Pro Max. Later, they posted a video showing an evident render of the device.
On Friday, YouTuber iDeviceHelp posted a video successful collaboration pinch leaker Majin Bu, who published similar-looking renders past month. iDeviceHelp claims to beryllium showing mockups of the standard, Pro Max, and Air models “based connected soul documents.” The video lingers connected the separator of the telephone astatine moments, and I was instantly struck by really overmuch seeing it reminded maine of looking edge-on astatine the 5.1mm 13-inch M4 iPad Pro, the 1 Apple instrumentality thinner than this is rumored to be.
It’s difficult not to besides announcement the Google Pixel-like camera barroom stretching left-to-right connected the backmost of iDeviceHelp’s mockups of the iPhone 17 Air and Pro Max. It’s unclear whether the barroom is functional aliases conscionable Apple trying retired immoderate caller aesthetic, but I invited it each the same, if for nary different logic than my iPhone 15 Pro is truthful dang floppy erstwhile laying connected its backmost connected my desk. iDeviceHelp demonstrated pinch the 17 Pro Max mockup that the barroom seems to thief there. But successful some cases, the rear cameras themselves still instrumentality up retired of the bar, truthful it whitethorn not beryllium perfect. Oh well, possibly adjacent year.
As for the remainder of the design, these renders and mockups look to show it pinch buttons successful each the aforesaid places arsenic existent iPhones (not counting the iPhone 16E, which lacks the Camera Control button), on pinch a USB-C larboard and speaker holes connected the bottom. The telephone is besides expected to person a Dynamic Island and Face ID connected the front. We won’t apt cognize for judge really adjacent the renders are until September, erstwhile Apple typically reveals its latest batch of flagship iPhones.
