Apple just changed the game with a 5.5mm iPhone 17 Air

Apple really said: “Slim thick? Nah, just slim”.

The rumored iPhone 17 Air is clocking in at just 5.5mm thin, which makes it feel like you’re holding a stack of gift cards to your ear. That is 2mm less than the iPhone 16 and even slimmer than a MacBook charger cord. If the leaks are true, this could be Apple’s boldest take on minimal design yet and maybe the thinnest iPhone we have ever seen.

So why the cutback? Apple has always treated design like a flex and this looks like another move to prove that they’re already in the future. A company celebrated for bold, visionary decisions seems convinced that minimalism is the next chapter of the smartphone era. That is why the Air is rumored to come with just one camera, wireless-only charging, and no bottom speaker. The message is clear: looks over extras, style over bulk.

Would you rock it, or is this too skinny to function? #apple #iphone17 #iphone17air #news #co_ethan #co_george
