A wallpaper in the second developer beta apparently leaks the resolution of the rumored iPhone 17 Air.
The wallpaper mentioned a resolution of “420×912@3x” — that is, a resolution of 2,736 by 1,260 pixels to normal mortals. As for the super slim smartphone, unlike the iPhone 16e, the rumored iPhone 17 Air will support MagSafe, according to Digital Chat Station — as noted by MacRumors.
And Bloomberg’s Mark Gurman predicts that the Air will arrive in September with a 6.6-inch display, 20Hz ProMotion support, a Dynamic Island, an A19 chip, a single 48-megapixel rear camera, and Apple’s custom-made C1 modem.
What’s more, according to a post on Chinese social media site Weibo (in translation), the iPhone 17 Air (once referring to at the iPhone 17 Slim) “has a camera bump of 4.0mm and a total of 9.5mm.”
Apple excludes the camera bump when reporting the thickness of an iPhone, so that the iPhone 16 is officially listed as being 7.8mm thick, notes AppleInsider. The iPhone 16 Pro Max is 8.25mm, again with the camera bump excluded.
