Apple iPhone Air review – GSMArena.com tests | Infinium-tech

Introduction and Glasses

The popular air chain finally reached the iPhoneland. An important opportunity that Apple deemed worthy of one naming each and “17.” Left Apple is still searching for the right formula after two low compared to successful experiments with mini and plus models that will help it properly expand the appeal of its major smartphone series. Can a design-centric wind move?

While the plus slot between the iPhone Air Vanilla and the Pro model is inherited, it is a very different proposal, so it is not in any way successor. On the one hand the air is generally higher with a pro model, with its promotional performance and A19 Pro chipset, $ 100/€ 100 high price tag is not mentioned compared to plus. There is also titanium frame and unique design that actually puts it ahead of this year’s Pro Duo.

The camera setup on the other hand is close to the iPhone 16E as compared to the iPhone 17 and the battery size is the smallest ever in the entire range. So it is clearly targeting a very different audience. Here is cheating sheet:

Another way that the iPhone tries to broaden the appeal of the air lineup, it offers a third screen size option – its 6.5 “panel slot between the iPhone 17 Pro and 17 Pro Max.

But as it is clear from its name, the major sales point of the iPhone air is its absurd thin body, which measures 5.6 mm in thickness and tips the scales on only 165 grams. It is a hair thinner and is just two grams of heavier than Samsung’s Uber-Since contestant, S25 Edge.

The rear single camera is a major pain point, but Apple said that it will be enough for users who are not photography-mangs. Apart from this, there is a new 18 MP selfie camera with an innovative octagonal sensor, which can also be more important for some of them.

Apple was never committed to the specs race game, but the 3,149 mAh battery of iPhone Air is still somewhat related. But perhaps the company will sprinkle its adaptation magic and squeeze a decent endurance from that limited package.

But enough speculation, let’s take a look inside the box and see how good the wind of the iPhone is and if Apple is actually on something here.

Apple iPhone AIR to unbox

The iPhone air ship in a super -patel paper box -it is slimmer compared to its 17 series of brothers and sisters to align with its major feature. The image on the cover is also different – while the other three phones have a picture of their back, here you get a side view.

The box has absolutely a useful item – a USB -C cable for charging and data. There is also no sim ejection pin because there is no physical sim slot in the air.
