iPhone 17 Air Battery Leak Raises Concerns Over Ultra-Thin Design Ahead of Fall Launch
Recent leaks suggest Apple’s upcoming ultra-thin iPhone 17 Air, set to debut this fall, may face significant battery life challenges. The latest reports indicate its battery capacity could be notably lower than other models in the iPhone 17 lineup.
According to multiple leakers, including yeux1122 and Instant Digital, the iPhone 17 Air’s battery is rumored to be around 2800mAh, with a strong possibility it will not exceed 3000mAh. This figure stands in stark contrast to other anticipated models, such as the iPhone 17 Pro Max, which is rumored to boast around 5000mAh.
Even compared to last year’s models, the iPhone 17 Air’s leaked capacity appears constrained. The iPhone 16 and 16 Pro offered approximately 3500mAh, while the larger iPhone 16 Plus featured a robust 4,674mAh. Given the iPhone 17 Air is expected to feature a larger screen than its predecessors, this reduced capacity could significantly impact daily usage.
Apple is reportedly developing solutions to mitigate potential battery life issues, including a new Adaptive Power mode in iOS 26 and a planned battery case accessory. However, for many prospective buyers prioritizing endurance, the leaked battery specifications could be a major drawback for the innovative, slim iPhone 17 Air.
