New details about iPhone 17 Air and Pro Max are revealed

  • iPhone 17 Air will have a battery capacity of 2900 mAh
  • iPhone 17 Pro Max may feature a new camera system
  • The updates will include adaptive brightness and new colors

The presentation of the new iPhone models, including iPhone 17 Air and iPhone 17 Pro Max, is expected in September. Recent leaks of information indicate interesting changes in design and specifications.

iPhone 17 Air promises to be very thin, with a thickness of only 5.5 mm, without the protrusion of the camera. However, the new leak from the well-known informant Majin Bu indicates that the battery may have a capacity of 2900 mAh, which surpasses the previous expectation of 2800 mAh. While this is not a significant increase, any improvement positively affects the battery life.

This smartphone will also feature a steel battery casing, which will enhance thermal conductivity and battery durability, similar to what was implemented in the iPhone 16 Pro. Additionally, iOS 26, which will support the new models, promises to introduce an adaptive power-saving mode that allows for more effective energy usage.

As for the iPhone 17 Pro Max, its thickness may be 8.725 mm, allowing for a larger battery capacity. The model may also feature a new adaptive brightness function, improving battery life without sacrificing performance.

Among the other expected updates is a new camera system, including a 48-megapixel telephoto lens and the ability to record video in 8K. Moreover, the iPhone 17 Pro Max may receive a new cooling system that will prevent overheating during intensive usage.

Both models may also appear in new colors, including a purple shade for Pro Max, which will be a departure from the traditional color options.
