Report: iPhone 17 Air to be the only titanium model, all four will have 35W charging

19 February 2025
Apple may be moving away from using titanium for its Pro models, but the Air has additional considerations.

Sort by:

35w charging from 2018 become innovation 😱😱😱

    LoL 35W in 2025 and no SiCa betteries.
    Apple gone crazy mad these days.
    Selling 200-300 eur worth devices for much over 1000.

I wish they were 95 percent the same - OK, but they're not. But for example, I use the phone mainly for browsing, a little gaming and taking pictures. On average, I charge it every 30-36 hours, ~7+ hours of SoT in that time, and then it's at 20 percent battery. The screen is at maximum settings and the phone's mode is the standard one, not energy-saving. This for 1+ 13.

          Cautious? No, they are just scared.
          They've made everyone already believe that slow charging is safer than fast charging, so they can't suddenly switch to fast charging.

          "..degradation is a non issue to us (but obv. possible huge issue for user)"

          It's a non issue for the user either.

          Oh, and what exactly do you mean by durability? No chinese phone has useless plastic rings that can fall off and maybe even tear off the rear panel, okay maybe those knock-off devices from Wish.

                Here's an example - the iPhone gives you a battery that gives you up to 1000 charge cycles.
                1+ gives you 2x big battery, 3x faster charging and note - 1600 charge cycles. You'll use the battery 600 cycles more. So..
                Tell me about durability again...

                  The Design is somewhat ridiculous. Air looks like a Google Pixel without the lenses and the pro looks like a discount Poco phone...People will still buy it, no matter what, but I if those renders are real, this is not a good design.

                    Apple needs to have different components just for this device ( motherboard, battery etc ). And since it is gonna sell less than pro max by far, prices will not be cheaper.

                    Samsung Edge may cost more than 25+. According to reports.

                          Apple is finally getting 2018 charging speeds!

                            Useless camera’s design and downgraded quality of the frame! Aluminum can be scratched too easily!

                                Anonymous, 19 Feb 2025Air has always been tipped to cost more than pro max No, iPhone 17 Air will never cost more than the pro cause of the less camera, weak chipset, ram and smaller battery and i have read all the rumors says that the iPhone 17 Air will cost lower than the pro/max.
