Pros
Our editorial view of this model’s strengths and limitations.
A large screen in a thin body
iPhone Air is 5.64 mm thick and weighs 165 g while keeping a 6.5-inch display. It is an appealing combination if you want more screen space without the usual weight of a large phone.
Smooth ProMotion scrolling
The display supports up to 120 Hz. Scrolling and animations look smoother than at 60 Hz, while the adaptive refresh rate adjusts to the content on screen.
4K video recording
The camera can record 4K video. That gives you more detail for a larger screen and some room for cropping during editing, though the files take up more storage.
How do we assess advantages and disadvantages?
Our editorial assessment draws on specifications, manufacturer documentation and available material about the model. It does not imply our own laboratory testing. We distinguish physical RAM from virtual expansion; features and box contents can vary by market. Reference prices are conversions; check the store for the final price of an offer.
