Apple Announces iPhone Air With Ultra-Thin Design

[ebika]

The iPhone Air uses the A19 Pro, just like the 17 Pro and Pro Max, not the A19.

Oh, good call, you're right. I'm with you then that it's probably throttled.

 

[breather]

But will it survive Zack’s bend test?

The iPhone Air features a single 48-megapixel rear fusion camera,

Did Tim Crook give it a lower-quality smaller sensor—just like he did with the iPhone 16e—that is smaller in size than the sensors of other iPhones’ 48-mexapixel main cameras?

Is that for 256GB storage.

Yes. All the 17 models start at 256 GB.

The Air is $1000. I called it: https://forums.macrumors.com/thread...ut-with-doubled-storage.2464617/post-34096431

Is that bump so much thicker than the phone that it’s going to interfere with wireless chargers that are flat and not of the MagSafe ilk (I.e. ones in cars?)

 

[Spinarelo]

I want that this INSIDE ME….. ASAP!!! I don’t care about the pros. It’s all about air for me.

Whoa! I know it's really thin and all, but that doesn't sound safe

 

[scrapesleon]

Starting at 999 they must be joking

 

[Homme]

Was tempted until I saw the USB 2.0 part 🤦‍♂️

Rumors said all aluminum. Looked cheap. Those looks great.

They were saying titanium back in July for the Air.

We have the year 2025, and Apple only put a slow USB 2 connection to the newest iPhones Air. 🤣🤣🤣 🤣🤣🤣

 

[aperfectcircle]

Sold.

Well, this looks unexpectedly sexy. So much that 17 Pro looks a bit… outdated compared to this one. A bit like iPhone 8 next to X when Apple launched them on the same time

 

[iYigit]

I feel like this was the "star" of the iPhones they've just introduced. Might switch from 15 pro max to this beauty.

 

[woodythecat]

Can only hope this won't be another "bendgate".....

 

[coolfactor]

They should have went with foldable instead of thinnest. hopefully next year is the year

I suspect — it's the advances in technology that enabled this thin Air design that will lead directly into a non-compromised foldable device.

 

[riyadhboyblue]

Wireless charging or usbC? Or both?

 

[DDustiNN]

I really find this phone ugly, honestly, it looks awful with that bump.

The iPhone 17 Pro is the ugliest in that regard. By far.

 

[spaceywilly]

Now that the store page is up, I’m not so worried about battery. 27 hours video playback is fine

 

[blairh]

Does it have dual speakers? I see stereo recording on specs. So that's dual speakers??

 

[B.A.T]

I plan to stick with my 12 mini until it dies but this looks like a winner and would probably be my next upgrade. Time will tell how good it actually is compared to Apple's commercial.

 

[The13Mini]

Weight..?

It weighs one gram more than a regular iPhone 12:

 

[ATLAS-2]

I’ve come around on the Air, but single camera only and USB-2 are hard pills to swallow. Gonna do some thinking the next couple days.

 

[MathersMahmood]

That’s the best looking phone I’ve ever seen.

I kinda feel like that was done on purpose to get people to lean more toward the shiny new model. Because man… the 17 Pro sure is ugly.
