androidauthority.com Unknown 2025-11-18 21:00:38

Android flagships, especially from Chinese OEMs, often pack the most bleeding-edge tech, making them the top choice for phone enthusiasts. Apple’s iPhone, on the other hand, is made for the average consumer — the phones don’t usually pack the latest technology, but their undeniable popularity sets them as the standard against which top Android flagships are judged.

The new AirPods Pro 3 have better battery life than AirPods Pro 2 on a single charge, with the buds lasting up to 2 hours longer on one charge. But here’s a curveball.

At 5.6mm, the iPhone Air is also slimmer than any of the current Android competition, though isn’t the thinnest phone ever launched … Macworld’s David Price rounded up the past and present competition, alongside a few more, uh, whimsical comparisons. The closest of the current competition is the Samsung Galaxy S25 Edge at 5.8mm.
