    iPhone Air iPhone Air already 18% off at select retailers

    So I've been eyeing the Air for a couple months now and I was surprised to see that it was 63k PHP instead of 73k. I had to double check with the salesman to make sure it wasn't an error. I'm pretty sure this never happens. i guess it's not selling as well as apple expected (which we all know)...

    iPhone Air Different maximum speaker volume on identical iPhone Air devices

    I placed two iPhone Air devices side by side with the exact same settings, and one of them has noticeably lower maximum speaker volume than the other. The only difference is that one is running iOS 26.0 and the other iOS 26.2. Has anyone else noticed a similar issue?

    My $10 Aliexpress iPhone Pocket

    My $10 Aliexpress iPhone Pocket just arrived a few weeks after ordering it. im not the guy who would rock this, but I bought this out of curiosity. The fit and finish is pretty nice. I have no frame of reference for the real deal but this has some stretch to it and easily fits my iPhone Air. I...

    Carrier How is the call clarity on the Verizon Network with iPhone 17 Pro & iPhone Air? Is it the same?

    How is the call clarity on the Verizon Network with the iPhone 17 Pro & the iPhone Air? Is it the same? Is the call clarity better with the iPhone 17 Pro over the iPhone Air since it has the larger earpiece ? Thank you .

    Apple Frost Case - Yellowing

    My Apple iPhone Air Frost Case is already yellowing on the buttons. I keep my case in my pockets at work and wear khaki chinos, so it could be the dye from the fabric. Anyone else experiencing this? Not a gripe, just surprised at how quickly it has happened…

    iPhone 17 Pro iPhone Pro to Air switch or vice versa

    With the ongoing narrative of the Pro Vs the Air, curious to find out how many of us actually went all out and switched from the Pro to the Air (or vice versa) along with those of us contemplating such a move.

    iPhone Air Leak says Apple already pausing iPhone Air (parts) production

    According to a Weibo leaker (from the supply chain): ------ Exclusive — Apple is halting production of the iPhone Air due to weaker-than-expected overseas demand and a delayed launch in China. The production line has already stopped pre-production, meaning existing component inventory is...

    Other Should we tone down the camera comparisons a bit?

    I'm as guilty as the next person at getting caught up in analyzing these cameras to death, so I'm definitely the pot calling the kettle black here. But I had two scenarios over the weekend that helped bring me back into a more balanced perspective. I had my 16e with me over the weekend. I've...

    iPhone Air iPhone Air quality issues

    I just saw an iPhone Air on display at Walmart and I gotta say I’m absolutely disgusted at the low quality materials Apple is using in this thing.

    iPhone Air Personal Opinion on the Air

    A Pro Max Only user since iPhone 13 Pro Max, the Air feels like a fresh breath of air. I can only imagine that I was carrying more power than required in my pocket, and that no matter how strong the A-series chips are, they cannot match the computing of the M-series. And no matter how large the...

    iPhone 16e 16e Weight

    This might seem like a pointless post, but I just realized the 16e only weighs 0.07 ounces more than the Air (1.99 grams). That made me think of a couple of things... First, further confirmation the Air is impressive given its footprint, excellent screen, and the fact that it still weighs...

    Hi all, Yes, it's launch day, but as we're all starting to receive our phones, it's time to start this thread off! What's your battery health, and what's your cycle count? For added iPhone 17 fun, what's your manufacture date and are you using adaptive power/charging limits? I'm somehow...

    iPhone Air iPhone Air w/ Telephoto Lens Would've Been Killer

    Looking into iPhones 17 this year to upgrade my 12 Mini. Went to the nearest store and played around with the phones. Overall very impressed with what Apple had done with the 17s. The base model iPhone 17 is solid but alas no Telephoto lens, which makes sense given it's price point. But...

    iPhone Air iPhone Air, less is more?

    The IBM PC came out when I was in college and I've been an active participant and user of personal technology since then. A few products come to mind when I hold and use the iPhone Air I purchased yesterday. These are my analogies, yours may vary. Palm Pilot Vx - a very different form from...

    iPhone Air Any iPhone Air owners considering a switch to the iPhone 17 PM?

    I got an Air 512GB model yesterday. First impressions were similar to everyone else - it's amazing and an engineering marvel. The longer I've used the device, the more I'm not certain I made the right choice given the Pro Max (256GB) model can be had for the same price. This is a tough decision...

    iPhone 17 Pro Pro vs Air Decision

    The air definitely has a premium feel to it thanks to the titanium and glass sandwich formula. It’s slimmer than the rest of the lineup, but the descriptions people are using are a bit hyperbolic. Is everyone coming from a max sized phone? Maybe I’m less impressed since I’ve used some pretty...

    apple has reported that the iPhone Air gets about 20 hours of video playback time. which is impressive for such a thin phone. is there any lab or person that has estimated the number of hours of "talk time" (on cellular calls) ? thanks very much.
