iPhone Air hands-on

Apple just announced the iPhone Air, which, as you might guess by the name, is something Apple is marketing as extremely thin and light. It’s 5.6mm thin and has a ProMotion display, one camera, Apple’s Ceramic Shield 2 glass on both sides, and an A19 Pro chip. But what does it actually feel like to hold? I (Allison) got to actually pick up the phone at Apple’s launch event today, and it sure is light. The profile is as slim as it looks in photos, and it has more rounded edges reminiscent of pre

Our first look at the iPhone 17 Pro and 17 Pro Max

There were two surprises for me when I picked up the iPhone 17 Pro. For one, the colors are bold — a nice change of pace from last year’s barely-there pales. But the bigger surprise is just how much has changed about the back of the phone. By all accounts, this still feels like an iPhone, with its soft matte aluminum frame. But the polished camera bar — always an underemphasized design element — now stretches across the back. And a detail I missed during the keynote is how the polished glass po

Apple launches iPhone 17 Pro with major camera upgrades

Apple launched the iPhone 17 Pro and the iPhone 17 Pro Max today with a new design and an upgraded camera system.

Apple debuts the $999 ultra-thin iPhone Air

Apple’s new iPhone 17 devices don’t have an AI-powered Siri yet. It doesn’t matter.

At yet another splashy event, Apple on Tuesday introduced its latest lineup of iPhones: the iPhone 17, 17 Pro, 17 Pro Max, and a new slimmer version dubbed the iPhone Air. The “Air” branding is meant to bring to mind other lightweight — and sometimes less expensive — Apple products like the MacBook Air and iPad Air. But it also recalls a time when smartphone makers were chasing an ever-thinner phone. In the AI era, however, it’s not necessarily the device’s size that matters; it’s what the softw

The iPhone 17 boasts a larger display with ProMotion support and a 120Hz refresh rate

In an absolute shocker, an early September Apple event included the official reveal of the iPhone 17. Who could have seen that coming?

Sorry to iPhone users with smaller hands and anyone else who is fed up of every phone becoming more of a phablet. The bezels are thinner too. Not only is the iPhone 17 screen larger than the one on its
