iPhone Air vs. iPhone 17 Pro? How to decide between Apple's two best models


The iPhone Air and iPhone 17 Pro Max are two extremes that elevate Apple's smartphones to a new level. So which one should you get?

Apple has also said that the adoption of an "eSIM-only design" allowed the company to save space, helping the iPhone Air achieve that thin form factor. Not only does it provide higher-quality images, but it also uses a new type of sensor that lets owners capture photos in both portrait and landscape orientations without needing to rotate their phone. The flagship model now supports ProRes RAW, a video codec that better preserves data for high-quality footage, the Log 2 format for wider color gamuts, and genlock.
