Apple failed to solve my biggest fear about the iPhone Air

androidauthority.com Unknown 2025-10-15 09:00:51

Just a few months after Samsung launched the Galaxy S25 Edge, Apple has thrown its hat in the ring with its own ultra-thin iPhone. At first glance, the iPhone Air does look impressive. The 5.6mm body is shockingly thin, the display looks great, and having the latest A19 Pro chip is quite the achievement. However, there was one aspect more than anything else that I was curious to hear about: battery life. The Galaxy S25

The physical SIM cards we've used for decades are slowly being phased out. With the Pixel 10 series, Google's phones have gone eSIM-only for the first time—at least if you buy them in the US.

Philips Norelco i9000 Shaver Review (2025): A Close Shave
