Coming Soon: The “iPhone Air” – So Thin, It’s Basically a Sheet of Paper with Rounded Edges!
Alright, folks, gather ’round! Apple, the company that convinced you to replace your perfectly good phone every year, might be back at it again with a new, thinner-than-ever iPhone. They’re calling it the “iPhone 17 Air,” because apparently, “iPhone 17 Anorexic” didn’t test well with focus groups.
So, what’s the big deal? Well, according to rumors (and you know how reliable those are), this phone will have a 6.6-inch display, a single rear camera (because who needs more than one lens to take blurry pictures of their lunch?), and an A19 chip. It might also feature an aluminum frame, Face ID, 8GB of RAM, and a front camera for all those duck-face selfies you’re going to take.
Basically, they took the iPhone Plus, put it on a diet, and slapped a new name on it. Looks like the “Plus” is now the “Minus.”
Who does this affect? Well, you, the consumer, who will be tempted to shell out your hard-earned cash for the latest, shiniest gadget. It also affects Apple’s competitors, who will now have to figure out how to make their phones even thinner without them snapping in half.
But hey, at least they didn’t make the charging port smaller… yet. We’ll have to wait until September 2025 to see the official unveiling. Until then, start saving those pennies, folks! You’ll need them to buy a new case when you inevitably bend this wafer-thin phone in your pocket.
