The iPhone 17 Air is Apple’s thinnest and most innovative smartphone yet, setting new benchmarks for design, performance, and user experience in 2025.
Ultra-Thin, Lightweight Design
Apple has redefined smartphone engineering with the iPhone 17 Air’s slim profile—just 5.6mm thick and weighing 165 grams. Wrapped in a titanium-aluminum frame and protected by Ceramic Shield 2 on both front and back, it’s not only durable but also elegantly stylish. The device is available in black, white, beige, and light blue, appealing to modern aesthetics.
Super Retina XDR Display with ProMotion
Showcasing a stunning 6.5-inch Super Retina XDR display with ProMotion, the iPhone 17 Air supports an adaptive refresh rate up to 120Hz for ultra-smooth scrolling and immersive visuals. The display boasts up to 3,000 nits peak brightness and superior anti-reflective coating, making it ideal for outdoor use and sunlight visibility.
Performance Powerhouse: A19 Pro Chip
Under the hood, Apple has equipped the iPhone 17 Air with the powerful A19 Pro chip. This chipset delivers MacBook-level computational efficiency, ensuring seamless multitasking, gaming, and AI-driven features for demanding users.
Powerful, Minimalist Camera System
Departing from multi-lens trends, the iPhone 17 Air sports a single 48MP rear camera optimized for Portraits, Night Mode, and Smart HDR. The Center Stage front camera (18MP, square sensor) lets users shoot landscape selfies without turning the device sideways, with advanced AI expanding its field of view for group photos.
- Dual Capture records from front and rear cameras simultaneously, perfect for vloggers.
- Ultra-stabilized video in 4K HDR for professional content creation.
- Center Stage in video calls keeps users perfectly framed.
Next-Gen Connectivity
Equipped with Apple’s N1 wireless chip, iPhone 17 Air supports Wi-Fi 7, Bluetooth 6, Thread, and eSIM-only functionality for fast, seamless connectivity and smart home integration.
Battery, Charging, and Accessories
Despite its slim design, the iPhone 17 Air integrates a high-density battery with silicon-carbon technology, offering similar video playback to previous Plus models. Qi2-25W fast charging and low-profile MagSafe power packs ensure all-day battery life.
Pricing and Availability
The iPhone 17 Air is available in India starting at ₹1,19,900 for 256GB storage, with options for 512GB and 1TB variants up to ₹1,59,900. Pre-orders begin September 12, and it’ll hit shelves from September 19.
