Leaked Video Highlights Sky Blue iPhone 17 Air’s 5.5mm Ultra-Thin Design

Majin Bu Official’s clip confirms a pastel finish with a minimalist camera bar, leaving hardware trade-offs such as battery capacity unverified as the September launch approaches

Overview

  • The Aug. 14 clip from tipster Majin Bu Official shows a dummy iPhone 17 Air in Sky Blue displayed next to an iPhone 16 Pro.
  • The video visually confirms the Air’s rumored 5.5mm thickness, undercutting the Galaxy S25 Edge’s 5.8mm frame.
  • Design sacrifices for ultra-thinness include a single-lens rear camera housed in a pill-shaped bar and a smaller battery compartment.
  • The leak reveals a dedicated Action button above the volume controls and a Camera Control button below the power key.
  • Rumors point to an A19 Pro chip with up to 12GB of RAM and a reduced GPU core count, leaving real-world performance uncertain before launch.
