"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 . The newest and arguably most innovative iPhone features the company's slimmest design yet, measuring at around 5.6mm thick. 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 iPhone standards. In other words, this is a totally different beast."
"For starters, the iPhone Air starts at $999, undercutting the S25 Edge by $100, so it's already an investment that should be easier to manage. That money gets you 256GB of internal storage (the same as the Samsung), Apple's repubtable software update policy that keeps the phone feature-relevant for years down the road, and an iOS experience that has proven reliable for app support and fluidity."
Apple's new iPhone Air achieves a 5.6mm thickness by using a smaller battery, fewer cameras, and unconventional design elements, resulting in a substantially different device. The Samsung Galaxy S25 Edge pursues a similar lightweight, burdenless hardware philosophy with comparable omissions. The iPhone Air starts at $999, $100 less than the S25 Edge, and includes 256GB of storage. Apple offers a long software update policy, reliable iOS app support and fluidity, and easier data transfer for existing iPhone users, including iMessage and FaceTime access. Apple's stronger retail presence provides more convenient servicing and support.
