The iPhone Air is just 5.6mm thick, making it the thinnest iPhone ever. The frame is made of titanium with a polished finish. The device features Ceramic Shield 2 with 3x better scratch resistance, on both sides of the device for the first time. Apple says that it is the most durable iPhone ever. A new camera plateau spans the entire rear width of the device.
It features a 6.5-inch OLED display with ProMotion, with up to 3,000 nits of peak outdoor brightness — the highest ever on iPhone. The front glass also features a 7-layer antireflective coating to reduce glare and distractions, and be more readable in bright lighting conditions.
The iPhone Air features a single 48-megapixel rear camera. A 18-megapixel front-facing camera features Center Stage that uses AI to automatically expand the field of view and rotate the frame for you based on how many people are on the screen. A square sensor allows four different composition sizes, so you don’t need to rotate the phone to take a landscape selfie.
The iPhone Air features the A19 Pro chip.
The iPhone Air takes the place of the “Plus” model in the lineup, sitting above the standard iPhone 17 but below the iPhone 17 Pro.
