Apple’s iPhone 17 Air Could Be Exceptionally Thin, New Battery Leak Reveals
Alleged live images of the Apple iPhone 17 Air’s battery have surfaced online, suggesting a remarkably thin design for the upcoming device. The leaked images, first shared on the Korean Naver blog by “yeux1122,” reportedly show a battery with a total thickness of just 2.49mm, including its metal casing.

The images reportedly draw a direct comparison between the purported iPhone 17 Air battery and the cell found in the iPhone 17 Pro. If accurate, the leak indicates that the 17 Air’s battery could be nearly half as thin as its Pro counterpart, pointing towards a significant focus on slimness for the “Air” model.
