iPhone Air Returned my Air

I personally love my 17 air and theirs is reason why they have several models with different screen sizes, not everyone likes one certain model.
I like the way the air feels and the fact it’s lightweight and for me has a fantastic screen. I have seen folks knocking the battery life, but there is always a trade off for a lightweight and thin device and I am willing to accept those.
The battery last me the entire day, I don’t watch movies, play games and use mine for emails, social media and most importantly phone calls.
The camera is more the adequate for my needs and takes sharp pictures. Looking forward to the next OS update to see what they fix in IOS 28, so far I love the air.

Just to be clear, it's not the iPhone 17 Air
It's just the Air
I think there's a reason for that and I would not just assume that it's "the" form factor for all the iPhones moving forward anytime soon.

I wonder what will they call the air next year? I mean if it ends up being a flop which i don’t think it will. Will they call it conAir? 😊
I have a feeling the Air 2 will come out in 2027 and not next year
That was a quick return, you didn’t even take the full 14 days.
Would the Air still be too big if it folded in half Razer style?
I wonder if the next iPhone 17e will be a thin as the air. I think most people would like that. Like a smaller version.
For the disable PWM option on the 17 series.
I actually did upgrade my mom’s SE3 to the 16e. Works just fine.
How I picture anyone complaining about a phone being too big.
same except all coins they straight up hate seeing me and my wagon down at the local apple store each launch day
It’ll likely go the Nike naming route. Air Max, Air Zoom, Air Force and maybe, if we’re blessed by the best player of all time, we’ll will see an Air Jordan model. May the sneaker Gods have mercy on our “soles”.
I returned mine. I loved the design but I’ll revisit it when there’s a better camera.
You didn’t read my post, you can’t return here once opened if bought from retailer.
On the topic of return policies, around 2010-2014 or so, I used to buy my MBPs from J&R out of NY because they wouldn't charge Nevada sales tax, and they were usually $50-$100 off the Apple MSRP. But like many other retailers, they would not accept opened returns, not even for a restocking fee. After I received two MBPs with a couple dead pixels, I decided to just pay the MSRP plus sales tax to buy directly from Apple knowing I at least had that return window if I received something not to my liking (like the yellow-tinted screen lottery back in the day).
Screen size, thickness, screen display all good. my issue is with the low volume telephone calls - need to use earpods or use speaker volume to hear decently. strangers audio volume on web sites is ok. at least compared to the iphone 26 i had.
probably this will make me return for either the 17 pro or regular 27
