According to current rumours, the iPhone 17 Air will be available in four colourways: light blue, silver, gold, and black. One leaker claims that the light blue will be “very light”—nearly blue at all—and more white in several lighting situations.

The light gold variation, which is subdued and not at all an overt hue of gold, carries on the subtlety motif. It appears that lightness and thinness will be the main themes of this smartphone, and Apple doesn’t want its colours to interfere with that.

According to current rumours, the iPhone 17 Air will use the A19 Pro chip, although a scaled-down version of the one found in the iPhone 17 Pro and Pro Max. Although the iPhone 17 Air is replacing the iPhone 16 Plus, it’s still a step higher than what the iPhone 16 Plus had to deal with. Additionally, it will receive the same amount of RAM as the pros.

Therefore, its only drawbacks will be its tiny battery and the fact that it only has one rear camera. Perhaps many will be willing to overlook those in the name of being light (145g) and thin (5.5mm to 5.65mm).
