 *Leaked iPhone 17 Air battery capacity reveals new model's biggest weakness*
 <https://9to5mac.com/2025/07/18/leaked-iphone-17-air-battery-capacity-reveals-new-models-biggest-weakness/>

  "iPhone 17 Air battery 'does not exceed 3000mAh,' per leaker
  Back in May, leaker yeux1122 claimed that the iPhone 17 Air's
  battery capacity would be lower than some might have expected.

 Per the account, Apple's new iPhone 17 Air is getting a 2800mAh battery.
 Now, that range seems to have been corroborated by another source.

 Instant Digital on Weibo posted yesterday that the battery 
 "does not exceed 3000mAh" [translation].

 Though it's not an exact number, the post does lend support 
 to the iPhone 17 Air's battery capacity being in the 2800mAh range.

 Even if it gets closer to 3000, that's still significantly 
 less than what the rest of the iPhone 17 lineup will offer."

Given battery capacity is the single most important component of 
overall product life, expect it to show up as pure crap in EU benchmarks.

You have to wonder who buys this Apple crap.
