iPhone Air Are you embarrassed to use the Air in public?

Honest question: Do people really care what phones others use?

Wow like, I'll admit I personally and mostly privately "don't want" the Air to be too popular as it validates Apple's sacrifices of battery life and cameras in favour of thinness and want the Pro to be popular to validate the opposite / "function over form" ... because often what's less successful gets the chop.... (But I love the current setup and hope they keep it. You have the normal one, the sports car and the truck)

However I wouldn't judge anyone else's "vote"! Pick what you love and don't worry about it.

Life is too short to worry about what other people think. Yes you will get people who play the game of phone brand tribalism or even phone model tribalism, ignore them, it's not a school playground and you're no longer 12

My first answer to the question why would anyone be embarrassed to use the Air in public? I for one love the device and would recommend it to anyone who was looking for a lightweight, fast, durable and great looking device that has a great forum factor. I upgraded from a 15 Pro and not looking back.

There’s been an unfortunate amount of negative chatter about the Air lately, and Pro (Max) users in particular (not all of them, of course) often seem eager to prove it shouldn’t even exist. So here’s a question for Air users: have you ever caught yourself, while using your Air in public, feeling a little embarrassed that someone might see you with this so-called “compromise” phone?

Ummm.. this post is embarrassing. I mean, really. What. A. Ridiculous. Question.

Some of us have a lot of spare time so coming here to these type of threads is a sense of entertainment.

So embarrassed I’m typing this on my air in my wardrobe, can’t let my wife see me, she’d disown me!

I can’t even use it in my own home, the shame.

I locked myself at home. Frontdoor is boarded up. I allready said farewell to my family and friends.
It's now just me and my iPhone Air.

Please send help!!

98% of people don't even know or care about the specs of an air compared to a pro..... the other 2% are nerds who obsess over specs in these forums so they're not outside anyway 🤣

Did a child write this post? Who is embarrassed of using a brand new phone?

Oh, I read this thread a few days ago. And just now noticed it in the sidebar.

I thought/hoped this one would wither.

This is going to be one of those threads, isn't it? 😕 You know, the ones that are absurdly long even though the premise of the initial post is faintly ridiculous…

It’s like what people say versus what they actually do. People claim to hate Apple’s solutions and prices, yet they keep buying the products. It’s the same with this post. People say they don’t like it, but they still come here and respond. Maybe it’s not so ridiculous then. Especially when 33 people have replied Yes to the poll.
