I'm a long-time iPhone Pro user, but I'm seriously considering the Air for these reasons


The iPhone Air may not win over camera enthusiasts, but its ultra-thin design and well-rounded features make it a solid pick for most users.

Instead, the glitz and glamor came with the iPhone Air, introduced with a theatrical flair, balanced on a single finger at the Steve Jobs Theater to a chorus of "oohs and ahhs." What I expect to ultimately tip the scales in the Air's favor will be the in-store experience, when curious shoppers pick up the device and feel an absence of thickness and bulk. Even if holding it doesn't answer the question of why an ultralight and thin phone exists, you'll be glad it does now, because the implications -- whether it's future Pro or foldable models that are just as nimble -- are remarkable.
