Here's how thin the iPhone 17 Air is, in-hand

The iPhone 17 Air is coming in September to take on Samsung's Galaxy S25 Edge, and a ton of rumors have already told us that it's going to be even thinner than Samsung's device (5.5 mm vs. 6.4 mm).

Now, if you need any help visualizing just how thin that iPhone 17 Air will be, in-hand, compared to the rest of the iPhone 17 family, then the video below shows just this, courtesy of a purported iPhone 17 Air mold straight from China. Interestingly, this mold is 5.65 mm thin, which is a tiny bit thicker than the previously rumored 5.5 mm, but that's still insanely thin. Take a look:

In order to deliver such a thin device, Apple has compromised on the camera system, with the Air only having one single snapper on the rear. Rumors also unsurprisingly mentioned that its battery capacity will be compromised compared to its stablemates. What remains to be seen is how it will handle any bend test.
