Pros and cons

According to our mobile phone expert

You can easily hold this thin and light iPhone for a long time.
You can take sharp photos with the 48-megapixel camera, even in low light.
Even the most demanding games and apps run smoothly and quickly thanks to the powerful processor.
This thin device doesn’t have space for a SIM card, so you’ll need a digital SIM card.
Because you only have one camera lens, you can’t zoom in or out.

Description

Watch movies and play games in detail with the Apple iPhone Air 256GB. This mobile phone has a 6.5-inch screen, so you can see more details than on smaller screens. The phone stays light and thin, so you can hold it comfortably for a long time. The standard lens lets you take sharp, colorful photos, even in low light. If you zoom in or out, you’ll miss some extra photo options. Thanks to the A19 Pro Bionic chip, apps open quickly and demanding apps run smoothly.

Just right: fast, smooth and everything you really need

Finally a new design iPhone
Thin/light
Great for a “normal” user
No movie mode (because you only have 1 camera)

I've always had the Pro models, but honestly, I never used those extra cameras and features. I'm not an influencer, just a father of two who wants a great iPhone that does everything he needs. This one is perfect—smooth, fast, and just plain fun to use. A truly great device!

A new experience

Feeling in the hand
No

Switched from the iPhone 16 Pro to the Air. It felt like a breath of fresh air. Battery life is comparable to my 16 Pro, and everything else perfectly suits my usage.

A perfect iPhone for basic and normal use

120Hz screen
iOS is fast and easy to use
Light & thin phone
Not all apps support 120Hz

I'd been looking for a replacement phone for a while. I had an Android device, but I was getting tired of it, so an iPhone was an easy choice. Ultimately, I chose this one, without all the frills offered by the Pro and Pro Max. With the "Switch to iOS" app for Android, transferring data was a breeze.

Be careful, though: this phone doesn't have a physical SIM card tray; you have to use an eSIM. I can't complain about the camera; I don't take many photos, so it's not that important to me. The battery life is also excellent.
