Rumor has it Apple could debut its thinnest-ever phone next year, but now we have an idea of exactly how slim that'll be. The iPhone 17 Air (or possibly iPhone 17 Slim) will be 2 millimeters (0.08 inches) thinner than the iPhone 16 Pro, according to a new report this week from Bloomberg's Mark Gurman.
With the iPhone 16 Pro measuring 8.25 mm (0.32 inches) thick, that means the iPhone 17 Air clocks in at around 6.25mm (0.24 inches). That's a hair thicker than some rumors that put the iPhone 17 Air at as little as 6mm (0.23 inches) thick, but it still dwarves the thinnest Apple smartphone to date: 2014’s iPhone 6 at 6.9mm (0.27 inches) thick.
