Apple’s upcoming iPhone 17 Air is shaping up to be the thinnest iPhone ever, possibly even stealing the spotlight from the sleek Galaxy S25 Edge — but there’s a major catch: the battery.
According to reports, the iPhone 17 Air could launch with a 6.6-inch 120Hz LTPO OLED display, packed into a featherweight frame just 5.5mm thin — that’s 0.3mm slimmer than Samsung’s already-skinny Galaxy S25 Edge. It’s also expected to weigh just 145 grams, 18g lighter than its Galaxy rival.
But Apple’s obsession with thinness may come at the cost of power. Rumors suggest the iPhone 17 Air will carry a 2,800mAh battery, a significant drop from the 3,900mAh cell inside the Galaxy S25 Edge — that’s 1,100mAh (or nearly 28%) less.
