New iPhone 17 Air leak hints at how the super-slim phone might solve its potential battery life issues



  • Silicon-batteries are arriving from TDK this year
  • Apple is one of TDK’s biggest customers
  • The improved batteries could power the iPhone 17 Air

We’re expecting the iPhone 17 Air to replace the iPhone 16 Plus this year, and it’s expected to be super-slim – which has raised some questions about battery life. Now a new leak suggests those questions could be answered using next-gen silicon battery technology.

According to a report from Bloomberg, battery maker TDK is ahead of schedule with a significant upgrade, where silicon is used for the battery anode rather than the conventional graphite. This means 15% more energy can be packed into the same space.
