Apple iPhone Air (2025) — The Thinnest iPhone Ever Made
Apple debuted the all-new iPhone Air as the thinnest iPhone ever made, featuring a breakthrough titanium design that is elegant and light yet strong, with an innovative internal architecture that enables the latest iPhone experiences. It is a bold new category of iPhone that replaces the Plus model in Apple’s 2025 lineup.
At its core is the powerful A19 Pro chip paired with 12GB of RAM, delivering pro-level performance in an ultra-slim body that measures just 5.6mm thin — making it the slimmest iPhone Apple has ever produced. Despite its slim profile, performance remains top-tier for gaming, multitasking, and AI-powered tasks through Apple Intelligence.
The stunning 6.5-inch Super Retina XDR display features ProMotion with an adaptive refresh rate of up to 120Hz for smooth scrolling, an Always-On display, and a remarkable 3,000 nits peak outdoor brightness — the highest ever on an iPhone
The iPhone Air debuts a new Center Stage front camera with the first square sensor on an iPhone, capturing photos up to 18MP and offering a wide field of view that lets users take portrait or landscape shots without rotating the phone. The rear features a capable 48MP Fusion camera with Camera Control for quick access.
Available in Space Black, Cloud White, Light Gold, and Sky Blue, the iPhone Air starts at $999 for 256GB, rising to $1,399 for 1TB storage.
