iPhone 17 Air colorways leak
The subtlety theme continues with the light gold version, which is muted and not at all an in-your-face shade of gold. It seems like the overarching theme of this device will be lightness and thinness, and Apple doesn't want its colors to get in the way of that.
The iPhone 17 Air is now rumored to sport the A19 Pro chip, though a lesser version than the one featured in the iPhone 17 Pro and Pro Max. Still, it's a step up from what the iPhone 16 Plus had to work with, and let's not forget that the iPhone 17 Air is replacing the iPhone 16 Plus. It will also get the same RAM amount as the Pros.
So its only downsides will be the laughable battery capacity and the fact that it only has one rear camera. Perhaps a lot of people will be willing to overlook those in the name of thinness (5.5mm to 5.65mm) and lightness (145g).

It's official! T-Mobile swallows another wireless provider
T-Mobile officially closed Friday on its latest purchase as 4 million UScellular customers now belong to T-Mobile and can experience what Ookla called "the best mobile network" in the U.S. Consumers in UScellular's coverage area who were unable to subscribe for high-speed connectivity eventually will be able to join T-Mobile 's in-home broadband service. But the advantages aren't all going to former UScellular customers. T-Mobile said on Friday that its customers who find themselves in UScellular's former coverage areas will benefit from enhanced network coverage. That's because, as part of the transaction, T-Mobile gets spectrum once owned by the carrier that was the fifth largest in the U.S. UScellular customers will enjoy a seamless transition to the T-Mobile network and should notice performance improvements right away starting from the first day. Nearly all UScellular customer devices will continue to work on the T-Mobile network. T-Mobile CEO Mike Sievert shows off a smile. | Image credit-T-Mobile UScellular customers are being permitted to stay on their existing plans for now. But once networks and systems become integrated, these customers will be able to select from one of T-Mobile 's unlimited plans to join. Once on a T-Mobile plan, these customers will have the opportunity to add great features to their unlimited plans and enjoy such outstanding streaming services such as Netflix, AppleTV+, and UScellular customers moving to a T-Mobile unlimited plan will be allowed to roam internationally in over 215 countries and destinations free, view free in-flight Wi-Fi, take advantage of built-in device upgrades, and more. UScellular customers could decide to move up to one of the Experience plans, which include T-Satellite. This benefit automatically connects T-Mobile subscribers' phones with a Starlink satellite in areas where there is no cellular service. Users are currently limited to sending and receiving text messages and sharing their location via their phones' messaging app. Picture and voice messaging via satellite is also being pushed out now by T-Mobile . The carrier says that next, satellite data from optimized apps will be available. Eventually, users will be able to make and take calls via satellite. Former UScellular subscribers can also decide to choose a T-Mobile plan made for first responders, teachers, and Seniors (those 55 and older). The final totals for the deal show that T-Mobile acquired practically all of UScellular's wireless operations for $4.3 billion after final adjustments were made. T-Mobile paid $2.6 billion in cash and will assume responsibilities for approximately $1.7 billion in UScellular debt. T-Mobile will take over responsibility for this debt following an exchange offer made to UScellular debtholders, which is expected to close on August 5, 2025. The UScellular brand will transition in phases to T-Mobile . Before or during its third quarter earnings call, T-Mobile will release a statement about how the transaction will affect the company financially. As we told you late last month, UScellular will get a new name and NYSE ticker symbol. Array Digital Infrastructure Inc. is the new name, and AD is the new stock symbol. The company will now manage two portfolios; one consists of cell towers, and the other consists of spectrum. Now that the UScellular deal has closed, it joins some other recent acquisitions made by T-Mobile . Last year, the carrier picked up MVNO Mint Mobile, which was part-owned by actor Ryan Reynolds. Reynolds also came up with Mint's humor-based ad campaigns which still run to this day. Also announced last year, T-Mobile picked up another MVNO, Ultra Mobile. The Mint Mobile closing took place on May 1st, 2024, while the Ultra Mobile transaction closed on the very same day. Of course, the largest deal closed by T-Mobile was the $26.5 billion acquisition of Sprint, which closed on April 1st, 2020. Before that deal, T-Mobile bought MVNO MetroPCS, with that transaction closing on May 1, 2013.

Samsung Galaxy A17 leaked promo materials reveal a chipset twist
A few days ago, renders purportedly depicting Samsung's upcoming Galaxy A17 got leaked, and earlier today we saw it in both 5G and 4G iterations listed by a European retailer, with pricing revealed. Now, even more details about the A17 have been outed, along with new official-looking renders and a ton of promo materials. According to these, the A17 5G will be powered by Samsung's Exynos 1330 SoC, not the 1380 as previously rumored. Samsung Galaxy A17 5G newly leaked renders The phone will come with 128GB of storage and 4/6/8GB of RAM, and one 256GB option with 8GB of RAM. MicroSD cards up to 2TB will be supported. The handset measures 164.4 x 77.9 x 7.5 mm and weighs 192g. It has a 6.7-inch 1080x2340 Super AMOLED screen with a waterdrop notch, 90 Hz refresh rate, 1,100-nit peak brightness, and Gorilla Glass Victus on top, a triple rear camera system (50 MP main with OIS, 5 MP ultrawide, 2 MP macro), a 13 MP selfie camera, and a 5,000 mAh battery with support for 25W wired charging (zero to 50% advertised to take 30 minutes). Color options will be blue, black, and gray. It's IP54 certified for dust and splash resistance, and comes with a promise of 6 major Android updates and 6 years of security patches. Keep in mind, however, that it will be launching with Android 15 on board, so the first one of those six updates will be Android 16. The back is made from glass fiber reinforced polymer, which is advertised as being stronger compared to the "Glastic" on the A16 5G. In the box will be a 25W charger, a USB Type-C cable, a SIM ejection tool, and a Quick Start Guide. Note that the presence of the charger in the box may vary depending on market. Compared to its predecessor, the Galaxy A17 5G is thinner and lighter, has a different chipset, and added OIS to the main camera. The design is changed too for the camera island, which is now one oval thing and not three separate round ones. That's about it, and this is definitely not the biggest upgrade.
