The iPhone 17 Air is rumored to have a 2,800mAh battery, which is smaller compared to mid-range Android phones in 2025 that offer around 6,000mAh.
Despite its slim 5.5mm design, the iPhone 17 Air's battery capacity of 2,800mAh has raised concerns, as even the Samsung Galaxy Z Flip from 2020 had a larger battery.
Apple may be relying on battery density improvements for better efficiency, but real-world performance remains to be seen.
Expected specs for the iPhone 17 Air include a 6.6-inch OLED display, Apple A19 chip, support for WiFi 7, and a more affordable pricing below $999, with a launch window around September or October 2025.
