A recent leak by “Majin Bu” has shared an image allegedly showing a component of the ultra-thin “iPhone 17 Air”. The blurry picture depicts a rear shell with a pill-shaped camera bar and single rear camera cutout.
The design suggests that this model will have a unique feature among iPhone 17 devices, making it likely to be for the “iPhone 17 Air” rather than the Pro or Pro Max models. However, it’s essential to approach this leak with skepticism as AI-generated images and counterfeits can be misleading.
Majin Bu has a track record of accurate leaks but also some incorrect information in the past. This design change might be adopted across the entire iPhone 17 lineup, given rumors of an elongated camera bump for both “iPhone 17 Air” and Pro models.
The “iPhone 17 Air” is expected to measure just 5.5mm at its thinnest point, with limited specs due to its ultra-thin design, including a single rear camera, speaker, no SIM card slot, and A19 chip. This device will likely be equipped with smaller battery, 6.6-inch OLED display, and Dynamic Island, among other features.
