Here's our closest look at Apple's ultra-thin iPhone 17 Air smartphone so far

Apple's new ultra-thin iPhone 17 Air smartphone has been teased in a new video on X, showing a dummy model of the rumored design of what will be Apple's thinnest iPhone ever. Check it out:

We've been hearing tons of rumors that Apple's ultra-thin iPhone 17 Air smartphone will be just 5.5mm thick at its thinnest point, passing the iPhone 6 at its thinnest point with 6.9mm. In order to get the iPhone this thin, Apple has had to make some compromises including decreased battery life, a single rear-facing camera, a single speaker, and the A19 processor over the A19 Pro.

Inside, we should expect a 6.6-inch display, Apple's new in-house A19 processor, 8GB of RAM, a 24-megapixel front-facing camera, 48-megapixel rear-facing camera, Face ID technology, titanium casing, Apple's in-house C1 5G modem, and charging speeds of up to 35W power.

Apple's new iPhone 17 Air will take the ultra-thin smartphone fight to Samsung which has its own Galaxy S25 Edge later this year, with Samsung giving its own (and best) M14 OLED displays to Apple for its new iPhone 17 family, not even using their new in-house M14 OLED panels on its new Galaxy S25 family of smartphones.
