iPhone Air reviews: Early adopters have mixed feelings on this ultra-thin phone

The Apple iPhone Air is an exciting phone that favors design and aesthetics over features and raw performance. Color accuracy, contrast, and shadow detail are still the iPhone's forte (as depicted in the samples above), but there were several moments when I craved the more distant optical zooming of the Pro model, especially when recording live events and subjects far away.
