iPhone Air After 3 Months: The Phone I Love But Can't Keep Using

SEP 25, 202641 MIN

Description

I love the iPhone Air. In fact, after three months with it, I still think it might be the most beautiful iPhone Apple has ever made. It’s ridiculously thin, incredibly light, has a fantastic 6.5-inch display and every time I pick it up, I’m reminded why I bought it in the first place. Unfortunately, I’m also reminded why it probably isn’t the right iPhone for me. In this unscripted episode, I talk through what it’s actually been like living with the iPhone Air after years of using Pro iPhones. We get into the real-world battery life and battery anxiety, the single-camera system, durability, that gorgeous design, display brightness, performance, the surprisingly poor speaker, eSIM, USB-C 2 and whether this could realistically work as a phone for a content creator. And that leaves me with a slightly ridiculous conclusion: I know why I need to move back to a Pro, but I still don’t want to let the Air go. If you’re considering an iPhone Air, particularly if you currently use an iPhone Pro or Pro Max, this should help you work out which compromises actually matter to you.
