Bloomberg's Mark Gurman reveals that Apple's iPhone 17 Air, to be released this fall, will be remarkably thinner, akin to the MacBook Air. This new model incorporates a blend of high-end and low-end features, a feat that required significant engineering to ensure battery life was maintained despite reduced battery size. Although there was consideration for making the iPhone completely port-free, with reliance on wireless charging and cloud-based syncing, regulatory pressures relating to USB-C standards appear to have influenced Apple to shelve this idea for the time being.
The iPhone 17 Air, launching this fall, combines high-end and low-end features while significantly reducing its thickness, achieving a balance that required considerable engineering.
Although Apple explored creating a completely port-free iPhone with wireless charging and cloud-syncing, they opted against it due to regulatory concerns regarding USB-C.
