Apple iPhone 17 Air:
Insiders indicate that the iPhone 17 Air may revolutionize smartphone design with an ultra-slim profile measuring just 5.5mm thick—thinner even than the 6.9mm iPhone 6—and weighing a featherlight 146 grams. To reach this groundbreaking slimness, Apple is reportedly considering the bold decision to remove the USB-C port along with other conventional connectors, moving towards a fully wireless device. This change could mark a significant turning point in the evolution of smartphones.
iOS 16:
Apple is rumored to jump from iOS 18 directly to iOS 26 this year, matching the operating system’s version number with the calendar year to avoid user confusion about the latest update. This major release is expected to introduce notable changes, some drawing inspiration from Android features.
Reports suggest Apple will refresh the visual design of its next mobile OS, potentially unveiling a sleek, glass-inspired interface optimized for Apple Vision Pro. For the first time on iPhone, users might also get a new feature showing the estimated time remaining to fully charge the battery—another idea seemingly influenced by Android.
