iPhone 17 Pro vs. iPhone 14 Pro: Why I'm upgrading to this year's model after three years

Sure, it may still have a Lightning Port and no support for Apple Intelligence, but I get around those very minor discomforts by using a MagSafe charger and ChatGPT. Truth be told, the Apple Intelligence features haven't wowed me enough to make me fork over $1,000 on a newer iPhone. Also: Apple Event live updates: Ev

Welcome to the era of thin smartphones (whether you want it or not)

engadget.com Unknown 2025-10-08 08:07:29

We knew it was coming, and now it’s here. The iPhone Air, as rumored, is only 5.6mm thick and has fewer features than the base iPhone 17, which is $200 cheaper. Sure, it’s not the first slimline reinterpretation of a major smartphone — Samsung beat Apple to the punch with the Galaxy S25 Edge earlier this year — but the influence of Apple can’t be underestimated. It’s too early to tell if the iPhone Air will shake up smartphones as the MacBook Air did with laptops, but it’s definitely a safer evo

iPhone Air vs. Samsung S25 Edge: I compared both thin phones, and there's a clear winner

zdnet.com Kerry Wan 2025-10-08 06:49:00

Follow ZDNET: Add us as a preferred source on Google. The market of ultra-thin and lightweight phones is officially at its tipping point, as Apple threw its hat into the ring this week with the new iPhone Air. The newest and arguably most innovative iPhone features the company's slimmest design yet, measuring at around 5.6mm thin. How did the folks at Cupertino achieve such a record? By opting for a smaller battery, fewer cameras, and some design elements that disrupt the norm, especially by i

iPhone Air Hands-On: It’s So Hard to Resist the Reality Distortion Field

gizmodo.com Raymond Wong 2025-10-08 08:25:15

Okay, so I’ve had some sleep to rest up (just a little) from the craziness of yesterday’s Apple Event, but also time to collect some thoughts on the iPhone Air (starting at $999) that I got to try out after the keynote. There’s no doubt in my mind that Apple has captured the same type of attention with the iPhone Air’s super-thin design as it did when Steve Jobs pulled out the original MacBook Air from a manila envelope. The iPhone Air is just so unbelievably thin—I felt like I could easily snap

iPhone Air vs. Samsung Galaxy S25 Edge: Begun, the Thin Phone Wars Have

gizmodo.com Kyle Barr 2025-10-08 08:45:56

The future of thin phones is up in the air, leaving me on the edge of my seat. Apple’s latest smartphone redesign is epitomized by the $1,000 iPhone Air, while Samsung is still trying to sell consumers on a slim $1,100 Galaxy S25 Edge. Tales as old as good versus evil—or Android versus iOS—don’t ever have an expected outcome, and we doubt either device will make you want to change ecosystems.

At its latest hardware event on Tuesday, Apple officially announced the new 2025 iPhone lineup. That includes the iPhone 17, iPhone 17 Pro, iPhone 17 Pro Max, and the slimmed-down iPhone Air, which looks to be the standout model this year. The devices come equipped with Apple’s latest A19 processors and a few other notable upgrades. For instance, the standard iPhone 17 now features a larger 6.3-inch ProMotion display, a more advanced selfie cam, and double the base storage. Of course, the iPhon

The iPhone 17 series is here, and it finally catches up to Android flagships with major upgrades

androidauthority.com Unknown 2025-10-07 17:00:38

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. Things are changing this year for the better, as Apple is making some big upgrades with the iPhone 17 series, but as expected, it’s

The iPhone Air is slimmer than the competition, though has been beaten

9to5mac.com Ben Lovejoy 2025-10-08 12:11:20

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.

Apple failed to solve my biggest fear about the iPhone Air

Joe Maring / Android Authority The rumors about the iPhone Air were true. 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.
