Theres some speculation that it could replace the iPhone Plus model in the lineup.
Chatter about the supposed iPhone Air was also seen on Digital Chat Station on the Chinese social networkWeibo.

Im sure someone will tell me, Flo, you complained just a month ago thatsmartphone design has plateaued.
Isnt this the kind of thing you wanted?

However, it might not be very profitable for Apple.
The iPhone 17 Air may really just be an experiment for Apples foldables, after all.
