Apple has unveiled a new MagSafe Battery, priced at $99, specifically designed for the iPhone Air. According to the product page, the “iPhone Air MagSafe Battery was created exclusively for iPhone Air,” with the compatibility list limited solely to that model. Apple explicitly states that the battery is not compatible with the iPhone 17 or iPhone 17 Pro.
A store image depicts the tall battery pack attached to an iPhone Air, positioned alongside an iPhone 17 Pro and an iPhone 17. This visual representation suggests that the battery’s design would interfere with the camera modules on the other iPhone models.
Apple discontinued its previous MagSafe Battery Pack in 2023, shortly after the announcement of the iPhone 15. Currently, numerous third-party MagSafe battery options are available, offering compatibility with the iPhone 17 and iPhone 17 Pro.
