On: Apple Debuts iPhone 16e

[apparent]

Rumor is that the 17 will have an Air edition that will be thinner/lighter. It won't help the reach issues much but will make them nicer to hold for extended periods of time. IME the minis are nice because of both weight and the ability to comfortably use with one hand.

The Air model will be 6.6”. It will be lighter than the Plus model it replaces, but I wouldn’t necessarily expect it to be lighter than the regular models. And certainly not usable with one hand.

Where is it being reliably reported that it's a 6.6" model? Seems like it's still pretty early to know something like this with any certainty.

And won't fit well in a pocket. :(

Yep. A 6.1” Air would have been nice, but at 6.6” it’s kind of in a weird place.

Size/dimension is the problem!
