Apple continues to maintain its dominance in the tech market with its annual releases of phones, tablets, and computers. While the popularity of the iPhone 16 series is still strong, leaks about the iPhone 17 series have started to surface since its launch event. Among the rumors is the iPhone 17 Air, expected to be the thinnest iPhone yet, with new reports emerging about its price. Additionally, Apple is reportedly working on two foldable devices, one of which is rumored to be a foldable iPhone. Here are the details.
iPhone 17 Air Price May Be Close to the 16 Plus
According to a new report published by The Wall Street Journal, Apple is working on two new foldable devices planned for 2026 and beyond. One of these devices is expected to be a foldable iPhone, while the other is rumored to resemble more of a laptop-like device. The laptop-style device is said to feature a 19-inch display when unfolded and might be introduced after the foldable iPhone.
The report also suggests that the foldable iPhone will feature a display similar to the iPhone 16 Pro Max but in a foldable form. The new model is expected to have a minimum screen size of 7 inches when unfolded, making it larger than the 6.9-inch 16 Pro Max.
The long-awaited iPhone 17 Air, which will be the thinnest of the iPhone family, may come with the same problem as the mini series.
Although Apple has not yet entered the foldable phone market, it is known that the company has been working on these models for a long time. The first foldable iPhone is expected to be unveiled in 2026.
In addition to the foldable models, Apple is rumored to release the iPhone 17 Air, which could be the thinnest iPhone ever. Initially expected to be Apple’s most expensive iPhone, new information suggests that the iPhone 17 Air might actually be more affordable than anticipated.
Reportedly, the device will be priced close to the 16 Plus, making it a more budget-friendly option compared to the Pro models. The iPhone 17 Air may launch with a price tag of around $900, appealing to a wider audience while maintaining premium features.
