The image shows the massive difference in smartphone thickness, with the iPhone 17 Air being half of the iPhone 17 Pro.

Despite being slimmer, the Air model may not be as amusing as the iPhone 17 Pro since the smartphone will retain a single camera, have different chips, may have a smaller battery, and other compromises, which may make buyers think. Another crucial factor would be the smartphone’s pricing. While the iPhone 17 Pro model will be priced higher, we do not know about the price strategy for introducing the iPhone 17 Air model.
Therefore, we simply have to wait until September to confirm what the new generation iPhone models will look like and what upgrade Apple has planned to sway buyers around the world.
