9to5mac.com Ben Lovejoy 2025-10-07 21:11:20

It’s taken Apple 11 years to beat its own record, but the iPhone Air is now the thinnest iPhone ever, a record previously held by the iPhone 6 from way back in 2014. 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.
