Thin but not a luxury phone

Iphone 16 Plus

Iphone 17 Air will not be a flagship

New leak regarding Apple's upcoming Iphone 17 Air puts the phone in a new light.

Apple has not yet announced the ultra-thin iPhone 17 model, which is said to be called iPhone 17 Air. Ever since the first details began to emerge in the spring of 2024, the model has been considered a departure among iPhone models and a new flagship model alongside the Pro and Pro Max models. This is despite reports of performance and features that would not be on par with the other models.

However, the publication Wall Street Journal now reports that the iPhone 17 Air will not be a flagship model at all. The allegedly generally lower specifications, including lower battery capacity and a single camera, are said by the Wall Street Journal to place the iPhone 17 Air price-wise lower than both iPhone 17 Pro models. It is speculated that the price could be $899 in the USA, which would put it on par with the iPhone 16 Plus - which in Sweden would correspond to 12,995 kronor.
