The so-called iPhone 17 Air, which is rumored to be coming this fall, is said to be Apples thinnest iPhone ever. But, if the company had gone through some of its earlier plans for the device, slimness may not have been the most talked-about element. In the Power On newsletter, Bloombergs Mark Gurman writes that Apple at one time planned to ditch the USB-C port to make the Air device Apples first completely port-free iPhone. The company reportedly shelved the idea to avoid sparking fresh problems with EU regulators. According to Gurman, however, Apple is still holding onto it for future slim iPhones depending on the success of the iPhone 17 Air. Apple is expected to release four iPhones this year, in line with its strategy of the last few years, with the one currently nicknamed the iPhone 17 Air being roughly 2 millimeters thinner than the rest. Leaker Sonny Dickson this weekend shared a series of photos said to be of iPhone 17 dummies, showing just how slim the Air could look alongside the rest of the family.

Of course, nothings been confirmed officially yet, but the iPhone 17 rumors and leaks are sure to keep coming over the next few months.This article originally appeared on Engadget at https://www.engadget.com/mobile/smartphones/apple-considered-making-the-rumored-iphone-17-air-completely-port-free-according-to-report-165334942.html?src=rss

Weve recently heard rumors that Apple is working on the next generation of its Studio Display, and Bloombergs Mark Gurman now reports that there may actually be two new models in the works. Building on his previous reporting about a potential update to the 2022 Studio Display that could be released next year, Gurman writes this weekend in the Power On newsletter that sources have told him Apple is working on a second new monitor. The first is code-named J427, while the second is reportedly being referred to as J527. Its been three years since Apple introduced the $1,599 27-inch Studio Display and twice that since the release of the $5,000 Pro Display XDR. Considering the age of both monitors, Gurman says one of two scenarios may play out, either that Apple is developing both and will choose one to launch, or its a second model with a different screen size or set of specifications.

According to Deadline, Humans writers Jonathan Brackley and Sam Vincent are working on an adaptation of Philip K. Dicks 1953 novella, The Variable Man. The show is being produced by Motive Pictures in a partnership with Electric Shepherd Productions, which is run by the late authors daughter, Isa Dick Hackett. The Variable Man follows a tinkerer turned accidental time traveler named Thomas Cole, who is transported from 1913 into the future and suddenly finds himself a reluctant player in an interplanetary conflict. Its being written for a UK broadcaster, according to Deadline, but there may be hope for a US release. When youve got Sam and John doing what they did so brilliantly with Humans and exploring the modern world through a genre lens, it is something that can absolutely attract broadcasters in the US, Motive CEO Simon Maxwell told the publication. I really enjoyed The Variable Man back when I read it and Ill give any PKD adaptation a chance, so heres hoping we get another good one in this series.
