That includes the use of a 3nm A19 application processor (AP) to power the device. Note that the iPhone 17 Air will not use the slightly more capable A19 Pro AP that will be found under the hoods of the iPhone 17 Pro and iPhone 17 Pro Max. And while the Pro models are expected to carry 12GB of RAM, the iPhone 17 Air will be equipped with 8GB of the stuff. That will allow it to support Apple’s AI initiative known as Apple Intelligence.
The iPhone 17 Air might be even lighter than the titanium iPhone 17 Pro models since it will be made of aluminum, according to Pu. Another rumor that has been making the rounds calls for the iPhone 17 Air to sport only one rear camera. Pu agrees and in his note, he says that this one rear camera will be backed by a 48MP sensor.
As we said, the real selling point for the iPhone Air will be its design and as we get closer to next September (yes, we are still 11 months away!) we should start seeing renders, leaked live images, and more. Once we see the design, perhaps we will understand why the iPhone 17 Air could have the most expensive starting price in Apple’s 2025 iPhone lineup.
