Apple may eliminate the USB-C port in its upcoming iPhone 17 Air, opting for a 'port-free' design that relies solely on MagSafe charging. Analyst Mark Gurman revealed this development in his latest Power On newsletter, suggesting that removing the port could facilitate a thinner device. While this feature is not confirmed, it indicates Apple's ambition to create its slimmest model yet, potentially replacing the iPhone Plus. Furthermore, the iPhone 17 Air may serve as a prototype for a future foldable device, continuing Apple's trend of innovation in compact technology.
