If accurate, this would make the iPhone 17 Air the thinnest iPhone ever surpassing the current record-holder, which is the iPhone 6 with its 6.9mm thick body. It would also be around three-quarters the thickness of the iPhone 16 and iPhone 16 Pro models, emphasising a lighter, sleeker feel. Although some may wish for an even thinner design, the limits of battery and internal components mean 6mm is already impressive for a device with modern capabilities.
