I go back and forth between the Air and my 17 Pro Max. With the hot weather here in the UK the Air is perfect for fitting in shorts. When I use the Air it only lasts for 3 to 5 days and then I go back to the PM. Love them both so much I kept both. I did intend to send one back!
Yeah I still haven’t opened my Air yet but can totally understand about the shorts part as my 17 Pro does weight the pocket down a bit. I wasn’t intending to buy the Air again but the Costco deal made it almost impossible not to. I saw somewhere that iOS 27 will make it easier to swap between iPhones, not sure if there is any more info on that.

Definitely. I wouldn’t mind some wiggle I was fine with it or if you can hear it while shaking the phone nobody does that. But double tapping and hearing a clanking metal that was too much for me
You got a video recording that ? On my copy it seems that the action button is the only button that is rattling, and tapping on the screen doesn’t make any noise of metal from what you are describing, or do you mean actually tapping the button in question ?

I already returned it bro. Maybe it took a little bit of an aggressive double tap lol but I still shouldn’t be hearing that

I'm on iOS 26.6. Swopping eSim between PM and Air always goes without a hitch. Air back to PM sometimes takes 3 or 4 attempts for some reason. That said I just went from Air back to PM and worked first time. Took less than 5 mins.
