The Apple iPhone Air is a very Apple product, if that makes sense \u2013 the phone sacrifices a lot to hit its design target of 5.6mm thickness and 165g weight. While it is hardly a battery endurance champ, the Air makes up for it with a unique feeling in the hand for anyone who has only used thick and heavy smartphones.<\/p>\n

At 165g, the Air weighs more like a 6.3\u201d phone, but instead it has a 6.5\u201d display \u2013 a 120Hz LTPO OLED with Ceramic Shield 2 and an anti-reflective coating. The battery that fits inside the slim and light body has only 3,149mAh capacity, but Apple managed to eke out an average 12:44h Active Use Score. The Pixel 10 Pro XL (232g, 5,200mAh battery) only got 12:29h. A vanilla iPhone 17 (177g, 3,692mAh) did better with a result of 14:59h.<\/p>\n

The other sacrifice you have to make when going with the iPhone Air is that you only get a single 48MP camera on the back. It\u2019s not a particularly good camera either. Still, the Air is a very popular model \u2013 and its arrival caused several Android manufacturers to try and jump on the super thin bandwagon too.<\/p>\n

Some of them gave up, but not Apple \u2013 the iPhone Air was sold well enough to warrant a sequel. However, this September is reserved for the iPhone 18 Pro models, so the new Air might have to wait until spring 2027<\/a>.<\/p>\n
