If these iPhone 17 Air rumors are confirmed on Tuesday, I'm saying goodbye to my phone


Here's a roundup of every credible iPhone 17 Air rumor so far - from design and camera upgrades to specs and other expected features.

Efficient charging and thermal management: Leaker Majin Bu has shared photos and measurements of what's claimed to be the Air's battery: an L-shaped, steel-cased module that's about 2.49mm thick with an estimated capacity of 2,900mAh. Apple's iOS 26 overview doesn't go into much detail, but ZDNET's Adrian Kingsley-Hughes tested it and reported that the system automatically adjusts performance and background tasks to stretch battery life when needed. However, in May 2025, President Donald Trump publicly threatened a 25% tariff on iPhones not built in the US -- a move that, if enacted and applied to the Air's supply chain, could affect pricing.
