"Is the iPhone Air's slim profile calling to you? If you're thinking of upgrading, keep in mind that going thinner likely means a slightly smaller - or larger - screen. The iPhone Air, the standout model of the four smartphones Apple announced at its "Awe-inspiring" event earlier this week, is the thinnest iPhone ever made, clocking in at 5.6 millimeters. The iPhone Air also has a 6.5-inch display screen."
"Customers considering upgrading from the iPhone 16 family to the iPhone Air could be sacrificing some screen size unless you specifically opted for one of the larger-screen models. The iPhone 16 and iPhone 16e both have a 6.1-inch display screen, while the iPhone 16 Pro measures 6.3 inches. The iPhone 16 Plus - 6.7 inches - and the iPhone 16 Pro Max - 6.9 inches - both have a larger screen than the iPhone Air."
"Beyond screen size, there are other important factors to consider when selecting a new phone, especially cost, battery life, and camera quality. Apple says the iPhone Air will have "all-day battery life," but also announced an iPhone Air-specific MagSafe battery add-on. If you're looking to save, consider the $799 entry-level iPhone 17. If you want the biggest battery and top-of-the-line camera tech, consider the iPhone 17 Pro or 17 Pro Max, but be ready to spend at least $1,099."
