How Much Will iPhone 17 Air Be Priced In India? Here's What The Latest Leak Suggests
Despite its ultra-thin design, the iPhone 17 Air is expected to maintain battery performance comparable to existing models.
Apple’s upcoming iPhone 17 series is generating buzz ahead of its expected launch in September. According to Bloomberg’s Mark Gurman, the iPhone 17 Air is set to be the thinnest iPhone ever and could be priced similarly to last year’s iPhone 16 Plus. If these reports hold, the new Air variant may debut in the US at around $899, potentially taking the place of the Plus model in Apple's lineup.
iPhone 17 Air Price in India
With Apple reportedly discontinuing the Plus variant, the iPhone 17 Air might serve as a mid-tier option between the standard iPhone 17 and the iPhone 17 Pro.
Last year, the iPhone 16 Plus launched in India at a base price of Rs 89,900. If the latest leaks are accurate, the iPhone 17 Air could land in a similar price range, possibly around Rs 90,000.
When Will iPhone 17 Air Launch?
Apple traditionally unveils new iPhones in September, but speculation suggests the iPhone 17 Air might arrive slightly later than its counterparts.
The iPhone 17, 17 Pro, and 17 Pro Max are rumored to be launching between September 11-13, 2025, with the iPhone 17 Air following a week later, possibly around September 20.
iPhone 17 Air: Key Features and Leaks
Despite its ultra-thin design, the iPhone 17 Air is expected to maintain battery performance comparable to existing models. MacRumors cited Gurman’s insights, stating that there are three rumored features for the iPhone 17 Air that should contribute to the device offering longer battery life than one might have imagined, including a higher-density battery, Apple's power-efficient C1 modem, and the lack of an Ultra Wide camera providing more internal space for a larger battery.
Apple has reportedly made hardware and software optimisations to enhance energy efficiency. Another expected feature is the Camera Control button, which first appeared across the iPhone 16 lineup.
As anticipation builds, more details about Apple’s iPhone 17 series are likely to surface in the coming months. Stay tuned for further updates on the official pricing and launch details.
