I want to love Apple’s new iPhone Air, but the iPhone 17 is a better deal


I was within a heartbeat of preordering the new iPhone Air. But a closer looks at the specs changed my mind.

But my phone’s battery and touchscreen are aging, and it doesn’t have a chip powerful enough to run the promised Apple Intelligence AI future. I don’t film Hollywood-esq movies, have no social media-creator hobbies, so I’ve always opted for the better price. This allows a single lens to act like multiple lenses — including a delightful new feature that allows simultaneous front and rear camera shots.
