FULL STORY
======================================================================The 
iPhone 17 Air will come with MagSafe, according to a new leak This is Apples 
magnetic charging tech that snaps your phone into place A leaked image of an 
iPhone 17 Air case has also surfaced 

For months now, weve been hearing rumors that Apple will soon release an 
ultra-thin iPhone supposedly dubbed the iPhone 17 Air . Now, a new rumor has 
emerged regarding the device, and its good news for fans of wireless 
charging. 

According to leaker Digital Chat Station on Chinese social media site Weibo, 
the iPhone 17 Air will support Apples MagSafe technology. This ensures 
optimal wireless charging efficiency by magnetically snapping the back of 
your iPhone to the charging puck. 

Digital Chat Station used its post to back up rumors posted by leaker Sonny 
Dickson over the past weekend. Writing on Weibo, Digital Chat Station said 
that The whole series has MagSafe, referring to the upcoming iPhone 17 
lineup, which would include the iPhone 17 Air should Apple unveil that phone. 

That stands in contrast to the iPhone 16e , which came without MagSafe 
functionality when it launched. That was presumably to help keep the cost 
down, but with the iPhone 17 Air expected to be a mid-range phone when it 
arrives, that concern is presumably less pressing for Apple. iPhone 17 Air

This isn't the only iPhone 17 leak weve recently come across. The 
aforementioned Sonny Dickson has posted a new photo of a case which they 
claim has been made specifically for the iPhone 17 Air. It features a clear 
back shell, and a large horizontal cutout for the camera and rear sensors. 

Posting on X, Dickson said that If you didnt know an Air was coming, youd 
swear it was a Google Pixel case. Googles Pixel phones have a horizontal bar 
along the back that houses the camera array, and multiple rumors have 
suggested that the iPhone 17 Air will adopt a similar look. 

Apple is expected to unveil the iPhone 17 Air alongside the rest of the 
iPhone 17 range at an event in September. Until then, we cant be sure exactly 
what that device will include; but if the latest rumors are true, both 
MagSafe and the horizontal camera bar could be ticked off your bingo card.
