iPhone 17 Air Stays Slim Even in Case, Video Reveals
iPhone 17 Air Design and Case Compatibility
The rumored iPhone 17 Air is expected to feature a futuristic design that prioritizes thinness over battery capacity. A recent video showcasing dummy units of the iPhone 17 Pro Max and iPhone 17 Air demonstrates that even when placed in an Apple-designed case, the iPhone 17 Air remains noticeably thinner than its Pro Max counterpart.
However, early tests have revealed a potential drawback: a significant drop in battery life due to the device's slim profile. To address this issue, Apple is reportedly considering bringing back the discontinued iPhone battery case as an optional accessory for the iPhone 17 Air. This battery case could be released several months after the phone’s launch, similar to previous releases.
For users concerned about battery life, alternative options like a MagSafe battery pack or external battery packs are available at affordable prices. Despite these concerns, the iPhone 17 Air is still expected to outperform the iPhone 12 mini in terms of battery life.
