 Multiple sources have confirmed that Apple will release a new model this year – iPhone 17 Air.

This is a mobile phone that focuses on a thin and light body. Its thickness is only 5.5mm, which is 30% thinner than the iPhone 16 and 33% thinner than the iPhone 16 Pro. It is the thinnest mobile phone in Apple’s history.

This phone will replace the Plus model, which currently has poor sales performance. The iPhone 17 Air will replace the Plus and form a new product matrix with the standard version, Pro version and Pro Max version.

As for the price, the iPhone 17 Air is similar to the iPhone 16 Plus, and the domestic price starts at about 6,999 yuan.

It is worth noting that this year Apple has stepped on the toothpaste, and both the standard version of iPhone 17 and iPhone 17 Air will support high refresh rate.

This is the first time in Apple’s history that high refresh rates have been introduced for mobile phones other than the Pro version, greatly improving the daily experience.

In addition, the iPhone 17 Air is expected to be equipped with Apple’s self-developed 5G baseband. This chip is smaller than Qualcomm’s 5G baseband. Apple hopes to use smaller and more integrated chips to save internal space and make way for the battery.

This is also a test of self-developed baseband. Apple hopes to replace Qualcomm’s solution within three years and switch to self-developed 5G baseband.
