The iPhone 17 Air brings the biggest design change in recent memory, and goes all-in on the forgotten focus of slim and light phones. At 5.6mm, it’s the thinnest iPhone to date. Apple calls it “a paradox you have to hold to believe”.
It’s actually replacing the not-so-popular iPhone 16 Plus, so it gets a big 6.5-inch LTPO Super Retina OLED display with ProMotion 120Hz refresh rate. It also features the updated Ceramic Shield 2 protection and up to 3,000 nits brightness.
