The iPhone 17 Air concept video shows how the product will look in real life.
Recently, the public has heard a lot of rumors about the "iPhone 17 Air" - an ultra-thin iPhone, which will be announced later this year.
Now, a real concept of this iPhone has given iFan a clearer picture of what it will look like in reality.
The iPhone 17 Air concep
t created by WEIS Studio shows that the phone will be just 5.5mm thick. Previou
sly, the iPhone 16 Pro was 8.25mm thick and the iPhone 6 - the thinnest iPhone - was just 6.9mm thick.
Another aspect shown in this concept is the single rear camera with a "bar" design, w
hich is completely different from the usual iPh
one design. This also matches the leaked image of the back of the iPhone 17 Air earlier.

This concept makes the idea of an iPhone 17 Air even more impressive. If the rumors are true, the new iPhone could be as thin as the 1
1-inch M4 iPad Pro, which is 5.3mm thick. Analysts believe that Apple wants to make an ultra-thin iPhone to boost sales, as the thinner design will appeal to customers who don't want to buy a regular phone.

Rumors suggest that the iPhone 17 Air will replace the "Plus" iPhone model, sitting between the standard iPhone 17 and the iPh
one 17 Pro. Despite its bolder design, the iPhone 17 Air will have some compromises to accommodate its thinness: a reduced number of cameras and a reduced battery capacity.
The iPhone 17 Air is expected to feature a 6.6-inch OLED display with a higher refresh rate — possibly 90Hz instead of 120Hz like the iPhone Pro models. The new phone will also feature A
pple's own 5G modem, which is rumored to debut next week alongside the iPhone SE 4. Combined with the A19 chip, the modem should help the phone consume less battery.
The iPhone 17 series is expected to be announced later this year. And the iPhone 17 Air will be a direct "rival" to Samsung 's super-thin Galaxy S25 Edge .
