Rumors have started spreading regarding the iPhone 17 Air battery, and this time, it does not look good. The battery size of the iPhone 17 Air is just 2800mAh which is small for even slim phones. Right now we don’t know what type of battery is being used in the iPhone 17 Air, but I can say they haven’t opted for a silicon carbon battery. To know more about this battery, click here(The video is in Hindi).
iPhone 17 Air Battery- 2800mAh
According to leaks from Naver, Apple’s upcoming slimmest device iPhone 17 Air, might ship with just a 2800mAh battery. The battery capacity is a big letdown; even mid-range Android devices have 5000 mAh batteries.
The iPhone 17 Air is just 5.5mm thin, so we can understand the battery size will be less, but it is not even 3000mAh. Apple should have gone for a silicon-carbon battery for more capacity. Even the Samsung flip phone from 2020 has more battery than the iPhone17 Air and it can also fold.
Samsung Galaxy S25 Edge vs Apple iPhone 17 Air Battery- winner?
The thinnest phone Samsung has released in years is the Galaxy S25 Edge. It has a 3,900mAh battery and is stylish as well. It’s not very large, but it seems contemporary at least. The Apple battery has always performed well, but now the chipset is also getting powerful and needs a larger battery to run through the day.
Nevertheless, Apple may be placing a wager on advancements in battery density. According to the leak, the business may be utilizing next-generation high-density cells, which might result in an energy efficiency increase of 15% to 20%. If accurate, the powerful performance might be more powerful than it seems. But for now, that is only a theory.
Apple iPhone 17 Air Specs
The iPhone 17 Air weighs just around 145g, which is the lightest full-screen smartphone right now. It sports a 6.6-inch OLED display with Dynamic Island at the front screen. We might see a 120Hz refresh rate across all iPhone 17 models. The phone might be powered by the Apple A19 Chip.
Furthermore, as is customary, Apple’s software optimization could accomplish far more with less hardware, including the battery. On paper, though, some customers would find it difficult to defend a high-end gadget with such a small capacity.
Apple iPhone 17 Air Price in India and launch window
According to reports, the iPhone 17 Air will be the most reasonably priced model in Apple’s 2025 lineup, coming in below the INR 1,00,000 iPhone 17 Pro. According to Apple’s usual timeline, the entire lineup—Air, 17 Pro, and Pro Max—should be released in September or October 2025.
