"iPhone Air Retains Its Remaining Battery Life"
Apple has added a new member to its iPhone family with the introduction of the iPhone Air. The device, which weighs a mere 165 grams and is just 5.64 millimeters thick, is significantly lighter and thinner than the standard iPhone 17 model (7.95 millimeters).
The iPhone Air's slim design, however, does not compromise on power. It utilizes exclusively in-house developed semiconductors for mobile network and Bluetooth connections, ensuring a balance between computing power and power saving.
The iPhone 17 Pro, another new model, boasts an 8x optical zoom capability and comes in a vibrant new colour: orange. It also has a housing made of aluminum, which conducts heat 20 times better than the titanium used in the iPhone Air.
The iPhone Air's battery life, according to initial impressions, is sufficient for everyday use, with a specified video playback time of 27 hours. However, it's important to note that battery life can vary based on individual factors such as app usage, mobile signal strength, and environmental conditions.
Apple has also introduced the AirPods Pro 3, featuring a heart rate sensor, and a flat external battery that magnetically attaches to the back of the iPhone Air using the Magsafe system. It's worth mentioning that the external battery fits optimally only with the Air, and can charge other iPhone models diagonally due to different camera bumps.
The iPhone Air does not include an ultra-wide-angle camera, which might be a drawback for those who frequently use this feature. The starting price for the iPhone Air is 1,199 euros, replacing the entry-level model of the Pro series.
In terms of durability, the iPhone Air has been tested under a load of 60 kilograms per square foot and has returned to its original shape. Apple has also introduced a new "Functional Fabric" for its leather alternative, made from recycled polyester with a finer texture.
Lastly, the iPhone Air comes with a crossbody strap that is compatible with some cases of the new models. The USB-C ports on the iPhone Air are manufactured using 3D printing with titanium powder, but it's unclear at this time which company produces the titanium USB-C connectors for the iPhone Air.
