The new pinnacle of iPhone 17
iPhone 17 Air is impressively thin
One of the most interesting leaks about the iPhone 17 is the appearance of the iPhone 17 Air version - the model that is said to have the thinnest design ever. This is considered the first real "transformation" of the iPhone line after many years of keeping the old style. While Android users have experienced the super light grip on the Galaxy S25 Edge, now iFan is about to get their hands on an iPhone that is both thin and light and high-end , promising to bring a more comfortable grip experience than ever.
Brand new orange
The iPhone 17 Pro is rumored to come in a completely new orange color – something that has never been seen on any iPhone model before. It is expected that this orange color will have a deep shade and lean towards a metallic copper tone, both luxurious and outstanding. This will definitely be an interesting choice for those who love the difference and personality in design.
24MP front camera
Another notable upgrade is the 24MP front camera that is expected to be equipped on all iPhone 17 versions. This will significantly improve the quality of selfies, video recording as well as the FaceTime experience. With higher resolution, users can expect sharper and more detailed photos, especially useful in the era of digital communication and increasingly popular image sharing.
More powerful RAM
One of the notable upgrades on the iPhone 17 Pro and iPhone 17 Air is the increase in RAM capacity to 12GB - higher than 8GB on the iPhone 16 series. This is a long-awaited RAM level on Apple's high-end devices.
With more RAM, the multitasking experience will be smoother, while also supporting heavy applications such as high-graphics games and AI features expected to appear in the new generation of iOS. This will be a change that is highly appreciated by the technology community.

Biggest battery ever on an iPhone
Another thing to look forward to is the battery life on the iPhone 17 Pro Max. According to leaked sources, this device will have a battery with a capacity of up to 5,000mAh - a number that has never appeared on any iPhone before.
This means that users can comfortably use the iPhone 17 Pro Max all day long, even into the second day without needing to recharge. Longer battery life is always a factor that makes loyal users satisfied.
Great level
iPhone 17 Colors
The standard iPhone 17 is said to return in two popular colors that have been absent for a few years now – green and purple. These are two youthful, individualistic tones that have the ability to “cause visual addiction”, especially when combined with the new design.
The return of these colors is not only aesthetic, but also shows Apple's efforts to refresh the standard iPhone line. Users who love color will now have more attractive options when choosing to buy a new device.
Larger size
One notable change on the standard iPhone 17 is the screen being increased to 6.3 inches, equal to the iPhone 17 Pro. This promises to bring a better experience for viewing content, playing games, and daily operations.
The increased screen size brings the standard iPhone closer to high-end models, allowing ordinary users to enjoy a spacious display without having to upgrade to the Pro version.
ProMotion Display
Leaks suggest that Apple will bring ProMotion with 120Hz refresh rate to the entire iPhone 17 line. This will be the biggest upgrade in years for non-Pro versions.
Thanks to the higher screen refresh rate, scrolling, playing games or watching videos will become significantly smoother and more vivid. Users will feel the difference from the first touch.
Two-tone design
The iPhone 17 Pro is said to have a new back design with a combination of metal and glass, in which the metal ratio will be higher than before. This not only makes the device look more luxurious but also increases durability, reducing the risk of cracking if accidentally dropped.

48MP telephoto lens
According to leaks, the iPhone 17 Pro and Pro Max will have their telephoto lens cluster upgraded to 48MP resolution. This upgrade promises to bring clearer zoom photography, especially in low light conditions.
High-performance A19 chip
The iPhone 17 and iPhone 17 Air will likely be powered by the new A19 chip, while the Pro models will get the more powerful A19 Pro chip. Both are built on a 3nm process, which should improve performance and optimize battery life.
Upgraded cooling capacity
Another notable plus point is that the cooling system of the iPhone 17 series is rumored to be significantly improved. With better cooling capabilities, the iPhone will heat up less when running heavy tasks or playing games for a long time, ensuring more stable performance.
Anti-reflective and anti-scratch coating
The iPhone 17 Air and iPhone 17 Pro are expected to feature a new screen coating that significantly reduces light reflection and improves scratch resistance. This is a small but practical improvement, especially as users increasingly use their phones in a variety of lighting conditions.
The addition of an anti-reflective coating will provide a better viewing experience when used outdoors, reducing annoying glare. Combined with a new anti-scratch coating, the screen will be more durable against light impacts during daily use.
Horizontal bar camera design
Apple may be testing a horizontal camera design on the iPhone 17 Pro and iPhone 17 Air. According to leaks, this camera section will run horizontally across the entire upper back, similar to the way some Android manufacturers have applied.
While the new design may feel different and stand out, many people are still hesitant about the large, protruding camera cluster. However, if Apple tweaks it cleverly, it could become a new, popular design trend.
Stable but not special and outstanding
Aluminum frame material instead of titanium
Instead of continuing to use titanium like the iPhone 15 Pro line, Apple may switch to an aluminum frame for the iPhone 17 Pro. Aluminum makes the device lighter, in line with the thin and light design trend that Apple is pursuing.
However, replacing titanium with aluminum also makes many people regret, because the premium feel and sturdiness of titanium are superior. This can be a trade-off between aesthetics, weight and user experience.

C1 Modem Developed by Apple
The iPhone 17 Air could be the first device to use Apple's in-house developed C1 modem, an effort by Apple to reduce its reliance on Qualcomm and have more control over connectivity on its devices.
However, the C1 modem does not yet support mmWave networks – a form of 5G that is super fast but has poor coverage. This may prevent iPhone 17 Air users from taking full advantage of 5G network speeds in areas where mmWave is supported.
Move Apple logo position
With design changes like a larger horizontal camera bar, two-tone materials, and a possible revamp of the MagSafe structure, the Apple logo on the iPhone 17 Pro models will likely be placed lower than its usual location. In some leaked renders, the logo appears right inside the MagSafe ring – a rather unusual location that many users may not be familiar with.
While this change is largely cosmetic, it could make the overall design of the device more distinct from previous generations. The logo placement adjustment also partly reflects Apple's new design philosophy - emphasizing balance in the layout of the back as the camera gets bigger.
Apple's self-developed Wi-Fi 7 chip
All four iPhone 17 models are expected to feature Apple’s own Wi-Fi 7 chip, rather than the Broadcom chip used in previous generations. This will not only improve connectivity performance and reduce power consumption, but also give Apple more control over the entire hardware ecosystem.
However, for the average user, switching to Wi-Fi 7 may not make a noticeable difference in day-to-day experience, especially since the network infrastructure supporting this standard is still in development. Therefore, the biggest benefit will still be system-level optimization.
Mechanical aperture
Another rumored highlight on the iPhone 17 Pro is the integration of a mechanical aperture - allowing users to adjust the lens opening, thereby controlling the amount of light captured like on professional DSLR cameras. This will be the first time the iPhone has this physical adjustment capability on the camera.
The question is, though, do the average user really need this feature, when Apple has done a great job of simulating depth of field and controlling light with software? If it is integrated, the mechanical aperture will probably serve mainly mobile photographers who like to explore creativity.
8K video recording
The iPhone 17 Pro may be upgraded to 8K video recording – a major step forward in imaging technology. This feature promises to bring outstanding detail and sharpness, suitable for professional content creators.
However, the reality is that not everyone needs such high resolution. 8K video files are extremely large, can quickly fill up memory and even require external storage like SSDs to process. So this may be a “heavyweight” feature but it may not appeal to the majority.
Not attractive enough
iPhone price increase
Apple may have to adjust the starting price of the iPhone 17 due to macroeconomic factors. Pressure from tariffs, rising production costs at factories in China and other Asian countries are forcing the company to reconsider its pricing strategy.
Although Apple has not made an official confirmation, a slight price increase is entirely possible. This may cause users to "weigh and measure" more carefully before deciding to upgrade.

iPhone 17 Air Colors
The iPhone 17 Air series is expected to come in black, white, light blue, and light yellow color options – a color scheme quite similar to the MacBook Air M4 series. Of which, the light blue color is described as very light, leaning towards a pastel tone that is soothing to the eyes.
However, this color palette is considered quite safe, lacking highlights or boldness. For many younger, more individualistic users, this may not be a really attractive choice.
Single camera on iPhone 17 Air
The iPhone 17 Air is said to feature a single camera – a decision made to save space for an ultra-thin and light design. This helps the device maintain a sleek and stylish appearance.
However, this sacrifice also means that users will lose the ultra-wide-angle camera, which is very useful for taking landscapes, group photos, or macro photos. For those who often create content with their phones, this can be a clear minus.
iPhone 17 Air battery capacity
The pursuit of a thin and light design has forced the iPhone 17 Air to sacrifice battery capacity. With a significantly slimmer body, the battery inside has also been forced to shrink to fit into the limited space.
Apple will certainly implement many software optimizations to save power, but in reality, these improvements are unlikely to fully compensate for the low battery capacity. Compared to the iPhone 17 and 17 Pro, iPhone 17 Air users will likely have to charge the battery more often during the day.
RAM iPhone 17
According to leaked sources, the standard iPhone 17 version will only be equipped with 8GB of RAM, while the iPhone 17 Pro and iPhone 17 Pro Max may have up to 12GB of RAM. This difference is not too big in numbers, but can make a noticeable difference in heavy tasks or when processing applications using AI.
As artificial intelligence becomes more and more important in smartphones, from photos and videos to language translation, RAM capacity is key. With only 8GB of RAM, the standard iPhone 17 may not be able to keep up with the trend of powerful AI processing in the next few years.
