New image shows how slim the Apple iPhone 17 Air is compared to the iPhone 17 Pro

We've been hearing about the Apple iPhone 17 Air for the past few months, which is rumored to arrive later this year with an extremely thin profile. Leaked renders already gave us an idea of what the iPhone 17 Air will look like, and now a new image that has surfaced online shows us how slim the iPhone 17 Air will be compared to the iPhone 17 Pro.
