For Performance, the iPhone Air runs on Apple’s new A19 Pro chip built on a third-generation 3nm process, featuring a 6-core CPU, a 5-core GPU with Neural Accelerators embedded in each core, and a 16-core Neural Engine optimized for Apple Intelligence tasks. Paired with 12GB of RAM.
Apple iPhone 17 Air Description
The Apple iPhone 17 Air features a 6.6-inch Super Retina XDR OLED display with HDR10 and Dolby Vision support, offering a resolution of 1290 x 2796 pixels (~467 PPI). The screen is protected by scratch-resistant glass for durability. It runs on iOS 19, powered by the Apple A19 chipset (3 nm), a hexa-core CPU, and Apple GPU for smooth and efficient performance.
The device is available in three storage variants: 128GB, 256GB, and 512GB, all paired with 8GB of RAM using NVMe for fast data access. The main camera system includes a 48 MP wide-angle lens with sensor-shift optical image stabilization (OIS), supporting features like dual-LED flash, HDR, and 4K video recording at multiple frame rates. The 12 MP selfie camera comes with depth and biometric sensors, HDR, Dolby Vision, and gyro-EIS for stabilization.
Connectivity options include Wi-Fi 6, Bluetooth 5.3, NFC, and GPS support for multiple satellite systems. It also supports USB-C 2.0 and Ultra Wideband (UWB Gen2). Audio is delivered through stereo speakers, but there is no 3.5mm jack. Advanced features include Face ID, barometer, and satellite-based SOS and messaging functionalities, ensuring a blend of innovation and practicality.
Design and Display
The iPhone Air comes with a glass sandwich build, while the front is protected by Ceramic Shield 2. The device weighs around 165 grams and carries an IP68 rating. The handset also comes in a handful of colors, such as Space Black, Cloud White, Light Gold, and Sky Blue.
Up front, it comes with a 6.5-inch LTPO Super Retina XDR OLED display. The display panel supports ProMotion with up to a 120 Hz refresh rate. While the brightness on this device can reach 1000 nits typically, and a maximum of 3000 nits outdoors.
Performance and camera
Getting into cameras, you’re getting a single 48MP main camera with f/1.6 aperture and sensor-shift OIS technology. While there’s an 18MP “Center Stage” front camera, as the rest of the iPhone 17 lineup.
This thing has a square sensor design that lets you shoot landscapes while holding the phone vertically. While its auto-framing and dual-capture features are nice touches as well. But despite carrying only two cameras, Apple positions this as “the equivalent of four lenses”. By offering 28mm and 35mm focal lengths, plus “optical-quality” 2x telephoto cropping from the rear camera.
Additionally, the iPhone Air features WiFi 7, a USB Type-C port, and an enhanced AI-driven Siri experience.
Battery
So one of the biggest compromises of this iPhone is definitely on the battery side of things. Some rumors point to a meager 2,800 mAh battery for the iPhone 17 Air, which is similar to the 2,815 mAh battery of the iPhone 12. It was even rumored that Apple will use a high-density silicon anode battery for this phone to offer battery life that is “on par with current iPhones“, according to popular Apple leakster Mark Gurman.
Thankfully, the iPhone 17 Air will still support MagSafe charging (something that was weirdly missing on the iPhone 16e). And surprisingly enough, we’ve even read news of Apple developing a separate battery case to combat battery anxiety. Which feels like such a “create the problem then sell the solution” thing, to be honest.
