Apple debuts the ultra-thin iPhone Air


The star of Apple's iPhone 17 event was the iPhone Air, its thinnest and lightest model to date.

This replaces the Plus model in the company’s 2025 lineup, following the underperformance of the iPhone 16 Plus last year, based on data from research firm DSCC. Image Credits: AppleRumors of a new, ultra-thin iPhone, potentially named “Air,” first surfaced in 2024 from Bloomberg’s Mark Gurman, who recently argued that the thinner design will set the standard for all future iPhone models, similar to how the MacBook Air influenced Apple’s laptop lineup. Additionally, the slimmer phone could pave the way for a future iPhone that folds, a concept that has been rumoured and is predicted to launch around the same time next year.
