A new leak has emerged about the iPhone 17 Air, which is expected to be the thinnest of the iPhones that many users have been patiently waiting for, with many leaks and claims about it for a long time. According to this leak, Apple may repeat the mistake it made with the iPhone 12 mini and iPhone 13 mini.
iPhone 17 Air’s battery life may not be very good
According to the latest leaks, it shows that the battery life of the iPhone 17 Air, which users have been eagerly waiting for a long time, will not be very long. In 2020, when Apple introduced the iPhone 12 series for the first time, it introduced a phone with a 5.4-inch screen called iPhone 12 mini alongside the iPhone 12, iPhone 12 Pro and iPhone 12 Pro Max. Apple’s aim was to attract the attention of users with the logic of reducing the screen and price.
Many users who wanted a small screen or an affordable price bought the iPhone 12 mini, and then the following year Apple also introduced the iPhone 13 series with a mini model. For the iPhone 12 mini and iPhone 13 mini, Apple had to shrink the battery while shrinking the screen. For this reason, many users started to say that the phone’s battery life was not very long. In 2020 and 2021, due to the lack of the desired sales due to reasons such as battery life, the iPhone 14 Plus emerged by enlarging the iPhone 14 instead of a mini model in the iPhone 14 series with the decision taken from Cupertino. Users who want a big screen and battery turned to the iPhone 14 Plus model.
The latest leaks suggest that the iPhone 17 Air will have a 6.6-inch display and will be a 6mm device. Leaks that emerged last week suggest that Apple will eliminate the physical SIM card port to make the phone thinner. In other words, people who will use the iPhone 17 Air can only use their phones via e-SIM. Leaks show that there is not much space left on the phone due to Apple’s thinning of the device, so the battery life of the phone is not very long, so it is expected to experience the same battery life problem as the iPhone 12 mini and iPhone 13 mini.
