At its annual showcase, Apple unveiled the highly anticipated iPhone Air, showcasing its ultra-thin design measuring just 5.6mm, outshining Samsung’s Galaxy S25 Edge at 5.8mm thickness. The sleek Air caters to users preferring a slim profile, offering a superb user experience despite its slim build.
Featuring a spacious 6.5-inch Super Retina XDR display with ProMotion for seamless scrolling, the Air boasts a durable design with a Titanium frame and Apple’s toughest Ceramic Shield 2 glass for added protection. Powering the device is the robust A19 Pro processor, ensuring smooth performance for demanding tasks.
Apple highlights the A19 Pro’s 6-core CPU, delivering top-notch performance and efficiency, claiming it to be the fastest CPU in any smartphone. The device also integrates Apple Intelligence for enhanced functionality in daily tasks such as email management and photo editing.
Moreover, the iPhone Air introduces the N1 wireless networking chip for Wi-Fi 7 and Bluetooth 6 connectivity improvements. Despite sporting a single-lens rear camera and a smaller battery compared to other models, Apple promises a range of photography features and all-day battery life, supported by battery-saving technologies.
Additionally, the Air supports MagSafe technology for convenient charging. Apple’s Senior Vice President of Hardware Engineering, John Ternus, emphasized the device’s innovative design and advanced features, including pro performance, a versatile 48MP Fusion camera system, and long-lasting battery life.
In addition to the iPhone Air, Apple also unveiled the new iPhone 17 with enhanced features like a better screen, improved cameras, and a rugged design, powered by the A19 chip. The iPhone Air is priced at £999, while the iPhone 17 retails at £799.
